M3's Boutique Accounting Services Assist North Star Lodging Management in Back-Office Procedures

OPERATIONS

North Star Lodging Management has the ability, through M3 Professional Services, to build an efficient and effective business to carry out its mission

Why it matters: Through utilizing M3PS, NSL has grown its portfolio and looks forward to growing even further, all while the accounting and employers’ burdens lie with M3.

North Star Lodging Management (NSL) is both a ground-up developer and first-rate operator focused primarily within the hospitality sector. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA, NSL has completed a number of custom, ground-up hotel developments across the Eastern United States since its inception in 2015 and currently manages a portfolio of four hotels throughout Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Florida. Since 2017, NSL has utilized M3's Accounting Core, Document Imaging, PMS Mapping, and Professional Services. In addition to using M3's software and services, NSL also leverages M3's industry partners, including Paymerang, since 2021, and HotStats, since 2022.

Top 3 Core Objectives: With decades of experience in developing and managing hotels, NSL knew that it needed to quickly build an efficient & scalable back-office.

Scalability: NSL was looking to scale its portfolio of hotels and realized that QuickBooks lacked a hospitality-specific chart of accounts, lacked analytical statistical accounts, making it more difficult to scale
Outsourced Accounting: NSL was looking to outsource the burden and costs of professional salaries, health insurance, 401k benefits, paid time off, legal disputes, and more.
Accurate Information for Stakeholders: NSL was looking to have on-demand reporting in order to keep key stakeholders up to date with accurate information.
