MINNEAPOLIS – June 22, 2009 – IDeaS Revenue Optimization, the leading provider of pricing, forecasting and optimization solutions and services, today introduced IDeaS V5i Forecasting, a cost-effective tool that provides hoteliers clear insight into anticipatory data. This enables a more accurate and consistent forecasting and reporting process which can lead to increased revenues. IDeaS V5i Forecasting is ideal for hotels that are considering automating revenue management processes but are not ready to commit to a fully automated system. IDeaS will showcase IDeaS V5i Forecasting on booth 748 at HITEC 2009 in Anaheim, Calif. “With the introduction of IDeaS V5i Forecasting, we are providing hotels a quick and easy-to-implement solution for automating a specific portion of their revenue management process,” said Linda Hatfield, vice president of product management and marketing for IDeaS. “This allows hotels to begin realizing the benefits of an automated system prior to committing to a full deployment. This solution is the perfect first step into the larger revenue management investment, particularly in these difficult economic times.” Incorporating uncertainty and specialized algorithms, IDeaS V5i Forecasting applies IDeaS’ industry proven forecasting methodology. This allows hotels to benefit from the automated updating of forecast patterns, based on recent trends through pattern recognition technologies.
