(SSRN, 2011) Samy Eldeeb, Mohamed; Tawfik Halim, Yasser
Measuring performance has increasingly become a focus in hospitality industry. One of the most important approaches to measure performance is the balanced scorecard, which summarizes a critical set of indicators that measures and evaluate the performance of the organization. The researchers used the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) as a tool for developing a proposed model to evaluate the performance in hospitality industry. The proposed model addresses performance evaluation at five levels: financial, customer, outcomes, internal processes, and learning and growth. This paper formulates a new multidimensional model inspired from BSC to be used as a performance measure tool in the hospitality organizations with special emphasize on Egyptian hotels. The model will handle the four perspectives of the balance scorecard by identifying the inputs, process, outputs and measures suitable for each perspective. The research tries to identify the key concern of the hotels which is the quality of service through improving the performance.

Hospitality industry operates their businesses in an increasingly changeable and unpredictable environment, where competition assumes a global scale; that requires the generation of new ideas, tools and methods. In this paper we propose a model to help hotels measure and evaluate the performance of their supply chains components. Applying both tangible and intangible assets measurements and also measuring supply chain components performance internally and externally. The proposed model develops an enhancement for maximizing shareholders value creation through measuring and evaluating the supply chain components performance, targeting customers’ satisfaction.
Towards A strategic management accounting, Framework for Cost Management in Egyptian Healthcare Industry
(Cairo University, Faculty of Commerce., 2012-10) Samy Eldeeb, Mohamed
The purpose of this paper is to examine the contribution of strategic management accounting (SMA) to the healthcare industry performance. Although academicians and practitioners believe the implementation of SMA and its techniques are superior to traditional forms of management accounting, it is noted that the adoption of SMA has not been used commonly among healthcare organizations except on a very narrow scale as it is illustrated within the context of the research. This paper first explains the need for managing organizations strategically and the meaning of SMA followed by a presentation of the cost process in healthcare organizations. Secondly, the paper describes the implementation of SMA in the healthcare industry, in order to enhance the hospitals performance and cost management. Another contribution of this paper is that it suggests practical guide for selecting the management accounting techniques for healthcare organizations. The findings showed that the application of SMA is enhancing the quality of the accounting information presented by the costing system, and the quality of the decision-making process in healthcare industry. The paper included a detailed description and analysis of research findings based on extensive survey of healthcare organizations in Egypt.
Using Ecological Footprint Accounting model as a tool for sustainable development in the hospitality industry: Evidence from Egypt
(Faculty of Commerce, Accounting Department, Ain Shams University, 2019-12) Samy Eldeeb, Mohamed; Tawfik Halim, Yasser
In recent years, the trend toward the sustainability reports are increasing especially within the era of the integrating reporting. In the same time the efforts of the government for improving the hospitality sector represented in the tourism industry in Egypt is one of the main objectives of 2030 plan. The impacts of the hospitality industry on the environment have become widely acknowledged. As tourism is predicted to continue growing in the next decade, there is an urgent need for the hospitality sector to embrace sustainability principles in order that tourists may continue travelling, while placing minimal impacts on the natural environment. Although there is much debate over the concepts of sustainability and how it is to be measured, the Ecological Footprint has recently been proposed as a key indicator of sustainable hospitality activities, due to its abilities to quantify the amount of resources needed for hospitality activities, and enable comparisons between hospitality components through its global, standardized measurements. The Ecological Footprint is a tool that measures humanity's demands upon the natural biosphere and its effect on the national resources of the countries. It tracks the biologically productive land and water required to produce all the resources a population consumes and to segregate its wastes. Information was collected on respondents from hotels managers and they requested to provide information on accommodation aspects such as occupancy rates, property sizes, average water and energy usage, waste management routines and information to determine the average ecological footprints of tourists in the selected hotels. In order to understand the relationship between the ecological footprint and tourist behaviors. The analysis of this information provide an indication of the current green status of hospitality and for better environmental practices.
