Tourism Optimisation Management Model (TOMM)
A program developed by a range of tourism industry stakeholders that is designed to assess, monitor and manage the long-term health of tourism destinations. In this model, future scenarios are examined and local communities are engaged in a process to consider what desirable economic, marketing, environmental, community, visitor experience, and infrastructure development conditions they wish to see. The process also identifies what needs to be monitored (and the acceptable ranges of these performance indicators) to determine if they are achieving these desirable conditions. This innovative program is currently being applied to tourism activity on Kangaroo Island. For more information about TOMM please visit www.tomm.info.
