What is a PIP?

A Property Improvement Plan (PIP) is the scope of work a franchise brand requires to bring a property up to current brand standards — typically issued at acquisition, franchise renewal, or re-flagging. It lists everything from guestroom FF&E and casegoods to bathrooms, corridors, public space, signage, and life-safety.

Miss the deadline and you risk fees, reservation-system penalties, or losing the flag entirely. JMC reads the PIP line by line, translates it into a budgeted scope of work, value-engineers where the brand allows, and executes the whole thing with in-house crews — so the property stays open and on track.

What a PIP covers

Public Space & Exterior

Lobbies, corridors, F&B, signage, porte-cochères, and facades brought to current brand standard.

Brand FF&E & Soft Goods

In-house purchasing of brand-approved furniture, fixtures, and finishes with real buying power.

Our process

From PIP to passed inspection.

A systematic path from the brand’s checklist to a signed-off property — keeping ownership, the brand, and the schedule aligned at every step.

01

PIP Review & Gap Analysis

We read the PIP line by line, walk the property, and map every requirement to a scope item — flagging anything negotiable with the brand.

02

Budget & Brand Approval

A line-item budget with value-engineering options, packaged for ownership and brand design review so everyone signs off before work starts.

03

Execution & Sign-Off

In-house crews deliver the scope on a phased schedule, followed by brand QA, punch-list resolution, and documented sign-off.
