LOS ANGELES – August 10, 2011 – InvoTech Systems, Inc., provider of the GIMS™ Uniform, Linen and Laundry Systems, announced the launch of its HITEC 2011 Wrap-up Video recorded at the hospitality industry’s largest technology event held in Austin, Texas June 20 – 23.  The annual event attracted nearly 5,000 attendees.  Please click here for more information on GIMS™.
 
Budget and mandate to buy efficiency-creating technology
“This year’s HITEC was larger and more productive than recent shows.  Attendees seemed to have budget and mandate to invest in systems that saved their companies money and improved staff efficiency,” said Harvey Welles, president and CEO of InvoTech.  “InvoTech’s team was extremely busy demonstrating how the GIMS™ UHF-RFID inventory control system tracks, records and inventories large amounts of linens and uniforms without using staff time.  Typically, a UHF-RFID system pays for itself in about a year due to labor savings and improved inventory control. That kind of ROI is important to operators today.”
