�It has been rewarding to successfully apply science to the business of hotel revenue management.  Our exponential growth has been based on the ability to deliver client success in the form of measurable increases in revenue for our clients,� said Ed Booth, IDeaS CEO.  He added, � Revenue management is just beginning to show its potential.  We look forward to expanding IDeaS footprint into other markets.�

�The Deloitte & Touche Fast 50 is a testament to a company�s leadership and its ability to not only have the right solution for that moment in time, but also the vision that allows growth over five years.  We commend IDeaS for making the commitment to technology and delivering on the promise of market longevity,� said Ron Hafner, Deloitte & Touche partner.
