Potomac Hospitality Deploys EzRMS In Three Major Properties
New Revenue Management Services installed in US capital hotels
February 26th 2010: At the end of 2009,
EasyRMS (Ez) Revenue Management Systems Ltd
secured three more hotel contracts in North America with a
new corporate client, Potomac Hospitality Services (PHS). The new
hotels are all
located in the Washington D.C.
area of the US,
where PHS is based. The River Inn, The Quincy and Virginian Suites Arlington are deploying the full suite of EzRMS™ solutions, including the Core Module, Ez-QUOTE™, Ez-BUDGET™, Ez-REGION™ and Ez-COMPETE™. The River Inn and Virginian Suites properties both have the Opera V4 PMS and The Quincy has the Visual One PMS. The extraction and upload interfaces for both systems are being installed in all three hotels, as are upload interfaces for Synxis, NetRez & iHotelier. Jerry Early, VP of Sales & Marketing for the group, comments: "Potomac Hospitality is constantly looking to improve our processes and performance. We feel that EzRMS™ will give us the ability to make more informed pricing decisions, so we can continue to provide the best value to our customers while giving our owners the best possible returns. We are excited to take our Revenue Strategy processes to the next level with EzRMS™." Phil Robart, EasyRMS Director of Sales & Operations - North America, who handled the sale, says, “We were certainly very pleased that Zack and the Senior Team at PHS decided on EzRMS™. They spent a great deal of time evaluating Revenue Management System options, and are very knowledgeable about this technology, and its importance to their business.” Because of this, EasyRMS were able to focus on the specific strengths that their product offers over their competitors, and the integration they could deliver to ensure their success. “On balance, I think that the system’s user friendliness, the ability for Senior Management to drive the revenue management process centrally, and the extensive reporting capabilities, were all important considerations in PHS’ decision,” says Phil. “We look forward to a working relationship with Zack and everyone at PHS,” he adds. “They have an excellent product, well situated and ideally suited to benefit from the implementation of EzRMS™.” About Potomac Hospitality Services: Over the past 25 years, Potomac Hospitality Services has been involved in the development, ownership and management of more than 4,000 hotel rooms in the Mid-Atlantic region. Due primarily to owner preference, the portfolio has been focused in the Washington, D.C. area. Recently, PHS has selectively added to this with properties in Washington, Philadelphia and Chicago. Nestled among a row of historic townhouses on a peaceful residential street, The River Inn's 126 newly renovated luxury suites are elegantly decorated with comfortable, home-from-home furnishings. Each boasts Italian-inspired furniture, ultra-plush bedding, flat-screen TVs and spectacular views. The Quincy, in downtown Washington D.C., features a sleek, contemporary style and a congenial staff of consummate professionals. This favourite of Washington D.C. hotels has 99 rooms and is at the epicentre of the city’s downtown scene, which includes the K Street power corridor, the nightlife on M, the restaurants on 19th, and late-night strolls to Dupont Circle. The 255-room Virginian Suites Arlington, just steps away from the banks of the Potomac River in Rosslyn, Virginia, is an exceptional hotel that features one-bedroom and studio suites in a highly desirable location, just minutes from the centre of town and closer to Arlington National Cemetery than any other hotel.
