CLEVELAND � Sept. 22, 2009 � Agilysys, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGYS), a leading
provider of innovative information technology and hospitality software
solutions, announced today that Treasure Island in Las Vegas has selected
a comprehensive software suite from Agilysys, including solutions for property
management, inventory and procurement, guest marketing and document management,
to streamline operations at the 2,885-room property. Treasure Island is
also expanding its use of InfoGenesis� POS by Agilysys.
�We wanted to work with a single vendor, and the Agilysys solutions
are among the most reliable on the market,� said Dominick Vacca, vice president
of information technology at Treasure Island. �We especially like the new
guest-oriented version of LMS and the Guest eMarketing solution, both of
which will enable us to capitalize on revenue opportunities and realize
a competitive advantage. Also, the new retail-centric functionality offered
by InfoGenesis POS encouraged us to expand its use throughout the property,
so that we have a single POS solution for enterprise-wide operations.�
Treasure Island will use the following solutions from Agilysys:
-
Lodging Management System® (LMS), a comprehensive property management
solution that automates every aspect of a hotel�s operations � from reservations
and credit card processing to accounting and housekeeping. Its versatile
foundation easily expands to incorporate modules for activities scheduling,
attraction ticketing, food and beverage, online reservations, remote check-in,
spa scheduling and more. Treasure Island will be using LMS+, the latest
version of the LMS property management solution, which includes an enhanced
browser-based interface, the LMS ARTS activities planner and Guest Hub,
a centralized repository for guest profiles, including history, itineraries,
interests and preferences.
-
Stratton Warren System (SWS), a full-featured inventory and procurement
solution that maximizes purchasing power and reduces operational costs.
Recognized as the hospitality industry�s leading inventory and procurement
system, SWS automates the entire procurement process � from food and beverage
to general property materials � and provides a fast and measurable return
on investment by reducing labor costs and waste and eliminating time-consuming
and error-prone paper documents.
-
Guest eMarketing (GeM), a feature-rich guest correspondence and
marketing management solution that enables properties to create cost-effective
and highly personalized e-mail campaigns. With GeM, Treasure Island can
send promotional offers, reminders, newsletters and surveys and obtain
data that leads to improved performance.
-
DataMagine� document management system, a patented solution that
automatically captures, indexes and archives all business-critical documents
and reports. The property is using the DataMagine Signature Capture module
to digitally capture guest signatures at check-in and upon completion of
retail transactions. Signatures are stored for future online retrieval,
enabling quick settlement of disputes and eliminating write-offs.
Treasure Island is also expanding its use of InfoGenesis POS, an enterprise-ready
point-of-sale solution that combines powerful reporting and configuration
capabilities with a touch-screen terminal application. The property had
already been using InfoGenesis POS in its food and beverage outlets. Now,
it will implement the solution in its retail stores, ensuring streamlined
operations throughout the property.
�Treasure Island is among the first properties to use the new version
of the LMS property management solution, which pairs 24/7 reliability with
an enhanced guest experience,� said Tina Stehle, senior vice president
and general manager of Agilysys Hospitality Solutions Group. �We continue
to invest in our industry-leading LMS solution by adding a variety of guest-oriented
features and functionality that take guest service to the next level and
help boost revenue by providing up-sell opportunities. Our comprehensive
software suite will enable Treasure Island to increase productivity, conserve
resources and manage its many venues more efficiently, all while helping
ensure an outstanding guest stay.�
