Skor Systems Announces SkorOps Platform Built to Make Hospitality Shifts More Visible and Accountable

Oct 13, 2026

Skor Systems announces SkorOps, a hospitality operations platform designed to help independent properties make daily shift work visible, organized and measurable.

United States, October 13, 2026 -- Skor Systems, a hospitality software company based in San Ysidro, California, has announced the continued expansion of SkorOps, a team management and shift accountability platform designed for independent hostels, boutique hotels, restaurants, bars and cafes.

Built by hospitality operators who experienced the operational problem firsthand, SkorOps focuses on the hours between check in and check out, when routine tasks, handoffs and service standards must be completed across a working shift. The platform gives each task an owner, scheduled time and point value, allowing completion to become a visible score that managers and staff can review during and after a shift.

The platform was originally developed as an internal tool for ITH Hostels, a nine property hostel group operating across California and Mexico. The founders developed SkorOps around the needs of their own hospitality teams before making the technology available to other independent operators.

Built From the Hospitality Floor

Skor Systems was founded by three hospitality operators with more than 50 years of combined experience. Two of which are Sean Barrite, Co Founder, leads product, engineering and infrastructure. Robert "Bobby" Dyer, Co Founder, leads demand, revenue and brand. The third is a silent partner for the time being.

The company's approach is based on the founders' experience managing hospitality operations where staff members often work across multiple responsibilities and shifts can continue after managers have left the property.

"People don't skip the laundry handover out of spite. They skip it because nobody wrote it down, nobody owned it and nobody noticed. We fixed all three," said Sean Barrite, Co Founder of Skor Systems.

SkorOps is designed to make those responsibilities visible without framing accountability as a punitive process. Staff can see their own scores and team performance, while managers can review completion rates, trends and tasks that require attention.

Turning Daily Tasks Into Visible Work

SkorOps provides a structured system for managing recurring hospitality tasks. Staff can complete tasks from a phone in seven languages without installing specialized hardware. Each task can be assigned to an individual, scheduled for a specific time and given a point value.

The platform includes a Manager on Duty board, shift scheduling, projects for longer term work such as renovations and seasonal preparation, a day planner with recurring tasks and alerts, multi property dashboards and timestamped staff performance history.

SkorOps also connects with Slack and automation tools, allowing operational information to move between the systems hospitality teams already use.

"We ran nine properties in two countries and the question at the end of every shift was the same: did it actually get done? Now we look at a board," said Bobby Dyer, Co Founder.

Designed for Independent Hospitality Businesses

Skor Systems focuses on independent hospitality businesses that require operational consistency across changing shifts and locations. The platform is designed for hostels, hotels, bars, cafes and other service businesses where routine work directly affects the customer experience.

The company also offers related products including SkorCover for employment policy compliance, Skor Contracts for staff agreements and e signature, and SkorAudit for mobile first property inspections with scored reports.

SkorCover includes federal and California policy packs, electronic signatures, renewal requirements and hard block functionality for unsigned policies. Skor Contracts provides electronic signature capabilities for staff agreements, including a bilingual English and Spanish contract for Mexico. SkorAudit allows property inspections to be completed through mobile devices and generates scored PDF reports for comparison with previous inspections.

Recognition and Visibility for Frontline Teams

A central principle behind SkorOps is that effective hospitality operations depend on making good work visible. The platform is designed around ownership, timing and recognition rather than punitive employee controls.

"Staff are not the problem. Invisible work is," said Dyer.

The founders report that their own operations save approximately nine hours per week, or roughly 36 hours per month, in follow-up and checking. SkorOps currently runs every shift at ITH Hostels' nine properties across California and Mexico, while additional hospitality businesses participate as design partners.

Skor Systems remains bootstrapped and founder operated. The company has continued developing the platform around the operational requirements of the hospitality businesses using it, including teams working across languages and geographic locations.

A Hospitality Operations Layer

Skor Systems describes SkorOps as an operational layer that works alongside property management systems rather than replacing them. The platform focuses on the daily work that takes place after reservations are made, including task completion, shift handoffs, property preparation and recurring operational responsibilities.

The company's mission is to develop a system that helps hospitality teams make daily operations clearer and more measurable while supporting a workplace culture where completed work receives recognition.

"Run your hostel like you're there, even when you're not. That is the whole point more time with less stress," said Barrite.

Skor Systems has received the Best Hospitality SaaS Platform in California of 2026 award in recognition of its SkorOps platform, designed to streamline shift management, strengthen operational accountability, and enhance team coordination across the hospitality industry.

Eala faces tough opening test in WTA Ningbo Open return

Eala faces tough opening test in WTA Ningbo Open return

MANILA, Philippines — Filipina netter Alex Eala faces a tough challenge upon her return to action at the Ningbo Open, which kicks off at the Ningbo Yinzhou Tennis Center. Based on the official draw released by tournament organizers, Eala will first face France's Diane Parry in the opening round of the WTA 500 event. The match between Eala and Parry is scheduled for 12 noon on Monday. This is their first-ever meeting on the WTA Tour. Also looming in Eala's draw are potential matchups against world No. 13 Diana Shnaider of Russia in the second round, world No. 11 Iva Jovic of the United States in the quarterfinals, and defending champion and world No. 1 Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan in the semifinals. Eala is aiming to bounce back at the Ningbo Open following a string of early exits across three consecutive tournaments. Her rough stretch began at the Singapore Open, where she was shown an early exit after falling to Russia's Tatiana Prozorova (6-4, 5-7, 3-6) in the opening round. This was followed by another setback against China's Wang Xiyu in the semifinals of the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan, with a score of 6-4, 3-6, 3-6. Eala's frustration deepened when she suffered another early elimination at the Wuhan Open in China, absorbing a 6-4, 3-6, 3-6 defeat against China's Han Shi in the first round. All three players who defeated Eala hold lower WTA rankings. Moreover, a recurring pattern marked the Filipina netter's losses, where she would win the first set only to fall short in the final two frames. To ensure she is in top shape before stepping onto the court, Eala immediately went straight to intensive training upon arriving in Ningbo. TMT

Haaland brace extends Man City's winning start in Premier League

Haaland brace extends Man City's winning start in Premier League

MANCHESTER, United Kingdom — Erling Haaland struck twice as Manchester City defiantly extended their blistering start to the Premier League season with a 3-2 win against Ipswich on Saturday. Phil Foden put City ahead in the first half at the Etihad Stadium before Daizen Maeda grabbed a shock equaliser for Ipswich. Haaland netted before the interval and struck again after the break to take his tally for the season to 12. Zian Flemming's penalty came too late to stop City making it seven successive league victories. It was City's second win since the club were found guilty of more than 100 breaches of Premier League financial regulations last month. City, who are appealing against the decision, sit six points clear of champions Arsenal at the top of the table. The Gunners can close the gap if they win at Nottingham Forest on Sunday. City boss Enzo Maresca is the first manager to win his first seven games in charge in the Premier League. The Etihad stands were awash with inflatable bananas throughout as City's supporters continued to show their backing for the Abu Dhabi-owned club during their ongoing crisis. The blow-up fruit, a throwback to their supporters' craze from the late 1980s, has come to symbolise their defiance in the face of a potential massive points deduction or even expulsion from the Premier League if the appeal fails. City showed their spirit remains intact on the pitch as well and Foden gave the hosts the lead on 19 minutes. Jeremy Doku cut inside the from the left and pulled back for Foden who, in his first appearance since his red card at Old Trafford last month, turned home from eight yards. City's lead lasted just two minutes as Abdoul Ouattara released Maeda with a well-weighted ball down the right. The pass arced around the backtracking Marc Guehi and Maeda outpaced and the outmuscled the England centre-back to seize possession and sit Gianluigi Donnarumma down with a composed finish. But City regained their lead on 34 minutes when Mateo Kovacic reached the byline and pulled back for Haaland to power a header through Christian Walton's grasp. Nico O'Reilly went close after the restart with a header from a corner but Haaland made no mistake to grab his second on 69 minutes. Iliman Ndiaye created the opportunity with a strong run from deep before playing in the striker with a defence-splitting pass. Ouattara could not keep his footing as Haaland skipped past him and coolly beat Walton. Haaland thought he had claimed a hat-trick when he volleyed home after Ndiaye hit the bar, but his strike was disallowed by VAR for offside against Enzo Fernandez. VAR intervened again moments later, changing the mood of the game when Guehi was ruled to have fouled Abdul Fatawu in the area. Flemming dispatched the penalty but City held firm to show they won't be fazed on the pitch by the club's off-field woes.

Williams lifts Valkyries past Dream in WNBA Finals opener

Williams lifts Valkyries past Dream in WNBA Finals opener

SAN FRANCISCO, United States — Gabby Williams scored a game-high 26 points, including four key free throws in the final 1:18 as the Golden State Valkyries held off the Atlanta Dream 68-64 in game one of the WNBA Finals on Saturday. Williams, runner-up to Atlanta's Angel Reese in Defensive Player of the Year voting, has emerged as an offensive force for the Valkyries in the playoffs. She carried the scoring load on a tough shooting night for the hosts -- who didn't have another player score in double figures. She took some time to warm up, going scoreless in the first quarter as the Valkyries got off to a tentative start in front of a raucous crowd at Chase Center arena. "Once we all started having fun and the excitement got out, we started to kind of find our way," Williams, who erupted for 16 points in the second quarter, said in an on-court interview. "There was a lid on that basket tonight, but that's why we rely on our defense," she said. Golden State trailed by one with 1:18 remaining when Williams seized the rebound off a miss by Atlanta's Allisha Gray and was fouled by Reese. Williams made both free-throws to put the Valkyries up 65-64 and added another pair of free throws to seal the win with 4.1 seconds left. Gray, the Dream's leading scorer, returned after missing two games with a hand injury and scored 19 points. But she was scoreless in the fourth quarter, when Atlanta made just two of their 19 attempts from the floor. Reese added 14 points and 12 rebounds, and Rhyne Howard scored 12 for Atlanta. The Valkyries will host game two of the best-of-seven series on Monday. Both teams are chasing a first WNBA title. The Dream have come up empty in three prior trips to the Finals, most recently in 2013. The Valkyries, who last year became the first WNBA expansion franchise to reach the playoffs in their inaugural season, are now contending for the title in their second.
