How Dispatch Works

01

Guest Checks Out

The front desk completes checkout. Room status automatically flips from Occupied to Dirty across every screen.

02

Attendant Notified

The assigned housekeeping attendant receives a push notification on their phone with the room number and priority level.

03

Mark Complete

Attendant taps "Complete" on their mobile view. Room flips to Inspected. Supervisor can verify or approve remotely.

04

Room Goes Live

Once approved, the room shows as Clean/Available on the front desk and tape chart — ready for the next guest.


Eliminate Walkie-Talkies Forever

The traditional hotel housekeeping workflow depends on printed paper lists distributed at shift start and two-way radio calls to relay status changes. Both methods are error-prone — paper lists are immediately stale, and radio calls get missed during vacuuming.

Lumina replaces both with a single mobile-responsive status board that every attendant, supervisor, and desk clerk sees simultaneously. Room status changes are instant and visual. No paper. No radios. No miscommunication.

Priority-Based Assignment Engine

Not all dirty rooms are equal. A VIP arriving at 2pm needs their suite cleaned before a room that is not expected until 6pm. Lumina's dispatch engine evaluates incoming arrivals, guest tier, and checkout times to automatically prioritize the cleaning queue.

Supervisors can override priorities manually or let the algorithm handle sequencing. Either way, the most important rooms always get cleaned first.


Deep Dive

Maintenance Work Order Tracking

When a housekeeper discovers a leaky faucet or a broken thermostat, they can flag the room as Out-of-Order directly from their mobile device. The system creates a maintenance work order, notifies the maintenance supervisor, and blocks the room from the front desk inventory until the issue is resolved. No phone calls, no sticky notes on the office door.

Turnaround Time Analytics

Lumina tracks the exact time each room spends in each status — from checkout to dirty, dirty to inspected, inspected to clean. Supervisors can view per-attendant turnaround averages, identify bottlenecks in the cleaning pipeline, and optimize staffing levels. Historical data surfaces seasonal patterns — helping managers schedule extra staff during high-turnover weekends.

Deep Clean & Rotation Scheduling

Beyond daily turnover cleaning, hotels require periodic deep cleans — mattress rotations, carpet shampooing, HVAC filter swaps. Lumina maintains a per-room deep clean calendar that triggers automated reminders based on last-completed dates. Supervisors see which rooms are overdue at a glance. When a deep clean is scheduled, the room is automatically blocked from reservations during the work window.
