About CORBU

Operational reality meets digital delivery.

I am Merle Schütt, founder of The Corbu Real Company.

For more than 20 years I have worked in hospitality, operational leadership, process development and digital transformation.

I know project plans, system logic and technical possibilities – and equally the daily operation, where employees have to work with a new solution under time pressure.

That is why I do not only review what has been built, presented or documented. I review what the operation genuinely needs, what makes commercial sense and which decision management has to take.

Our stance

Independent – even when that is uncomfortable.

CORBU receives no commissions from external software vendors or implementation partners. Our assessment is therefore aligned solely with your operation.

If a project is not sensible, not ready for a decision or simply too expensive for the expected benefit, we say so openly.

Hospitality expertise

Processes that genuinely work in service.

Hotels, restaurants, catering and events work in shifts, under time pressure and with changing teams. A system that only works in a workshop does not work.

We therefore always review digital projects along real routines: handovers, peak times, temporary staff, languages and sites.

Independence and clear responsibilities

How CORBU works.

On your side

CORBU reviews decisions, proposals and implementations consistently from the client-side perspective.

Independent of vendors

CORBU receives no commission for recommending or referring external software providers.

Clear separation of roles

Advisory services and CORBU’s own products are presented separately and transparently. A review does not automatically lead to a product recommendation.

Clear responsibility

CORBU provides decision support, documents risks and supports critical phases. Project ownership remains with you and your implementation partner.

CORBU products

Digital tools for hospitality operations.

CORBU develops its own products for specific operational challenges. They can be used independently and are clearly separated from CORBU’s project review services.

Independent CORBU product

corbu.on

Onboarding that works in daily operations.

Structured digital onboarding for new employees – role-specific, transparent and usable in everyday work.

Independent CORBU product

corbu.dx

Make performance visible and actionable.

Performance indicators, operational observations and structured review preparation provide a clearer basis for leadership and improvement.

Advisory and products stay separate: an independent review does not automatically lead to a product recommendation.
