(PRLEAP.COM) Herndon, VA.: The Kanbay Research Institute (KRI), an independent, non-incorporated operating unit of Capgemini, initiated coverage on Hilton (HLT) as part of their competitive ratings of the Travel industry. The KRI standardized system measures how well a company is building durable advantage and provides overall and detailed ratings across nine competitive moats by analyzing consumer responses. Hilton scores a 3M rating in the cost containment moat. A 5M is the most competitive rating possible.

Hilton may face significant challenges maintaining their consistency in quality and service across properties, and rank lowest in the hotel industry, but this does not preclude them from developing a moderate advantage in cost containment, the moat best suited to their franchise business structure. Hilton is included in the KRI’s annual industry study, Travel Demand Today. In the 2006 study, KRI conducted 2,066 interviews with U.S. consumers to rate 30 companies.
