Smart Robotics

Rising labour costs, slow workforce growth, changing consumer demands and increasing competition are key challenges for today’s hospitality industry. To help hotels achieve breakthroughs, the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and the Singapore Hotel Association’s Innovation Committee are driving the Smart Hotel Technology Roadmap which incorporates robotics and mobile connectivity to accelerate business transformation and growth. Hoteliers who are constantly upgrading themselves to keep up with technology advancements will see themselves gaining a strong competitive edge over their competitors.

Leverage robotics to streamline operations, boost productivity and develop your employees’ competencies to co-work with emerging technologies. Autonomous service robots can be deployed to execute repetitive and tedious back-of-house operations such as delivery, lifting, cleaning and cooking. With less reliance on manual labour, hoteliers can alleviate the manpower crunch as service staff are freed up to focus on creating deeper interactions with guests.

As the first of its kind to be launched in Singapore, StarHub’s Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) offers service robots on a leasing model. No upfront hefty costs required, the fully-managed robotics service is available on a daily, monthly and yearly subscription basis.

Why lease?

Deploying a fleet of robots can be costly and requires high maintenance. To ease the adoption of robots, StarHub is the first in Singapore to offer Robotics-as-a-Service to lower the upfront capital investment required.

Cost efficient & scalable

Turn CAPEX to OPEX and save on hefty upfront capital investments and maintenance costs with a daily, monthly or yearly lease model that can be scaled up or down based on your needs. This reduces costs of ownership that is required to set up an internal team with the expertise to manage the robots.
