 Skagit Valley Casino Resort Selects
IAD's Materials Management System
ATLANTA, Dec. 2, 2003  � Inter-American Data (IAD) has announced that Skagit Valley Casino Resort in Bow, WA, has chosen the Materials Management System (MMS) to streamline its daily operations.

MMS is a turnkey software solution for inventory and procurement with specific functionality geared to the hospitality industry. Its reliability, capacity for handling high-volume activities, and incorporation of a full-function accounting backbone in an enterprise-wide paperless environment set the system apart. MMS allows properties of all sizes to manage the entire procurement process via e-commerce.

Key executives of The Skagit participated in the software selection. Decision-makers observed IAD�s Materials Management System in operation at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas and also talked with other IAD clients.

In selecting an inventory and procurement system, application integration was a top priority, said Randy Doolittle, Director of Purchasing for Skagit Valley Casino Resort. �One of the deciding factors was the system�s easy integration with our existing Infinium software. What�s more, the system is reliable and flexible, allowing us to streamline the flow of data between departments throughout the hotel.� 

�The addition of The Skagit to our growing client roster was the result of a true partnership between the property�s evaluation team, Infinium and IAD,� said Karmalete Webber, Vice President of Sales for Inter-American Data. �We are delighted to have them aboard.�

Skagit Valley Casino Resort, located between Seattle and Vancouver, B.C., is a complete recreation destination featuring a 103-room hotel, 14,000-square-foot conference center, 2,700-seat Outdoor Events Center, 450-seat showroom, three restaurants, and a 64,000-square-foot Las Vegas-style casino. The Skagit is also the sole operating partner of nearby Semiahmoo Golf & Country Club and Loomis Trail Club, recently named by Golf Digest as two of the nation�s �Top 100� public golf courses.
