| Jacksonville, FL�(September 14, 2005)�Since going
live in April, a nationwide web-based reservations system created by SECURE-RES
for the Navy Lodge Program has met with tremendous success, resulting in
over 1,088 reservations, 3,979 room nights and $367,000 in revenues for
participating hoteliers.
The Navy Lodge Program provides accommodations for traveling members of the military, their families and other authorized patrons. The SECURE-RES system is used by the Navy Lodge�s Jacksonville, Florida call-center staffers to secure alternative commercial lodging for travelers when the Navy Lodges are fully booked. This provides convenience for travelers by allowing them to quickly secure accommodations at reduced rates, often ten percent below Navy per-diems. �Many of our lodges typically have occupancy rates of over ninety percent during peak season,� said Jerry Harvin, manager of the Navy Lodge Worldwide Central Reservation Center. �So the SECURE-RES system fills an important need in serving our travelers when Navy Lodging is sold out. It�s been a fantastic program, and we�re very pleased with it. Making the transition to the system was very smooth, and our call-center personnel have found it to be extremely user-friendly.�
