BRECKENRIDGE, CO. -- After realizing significant room revenue increases from two of its resorts located in Colorado, Vail Resorts, Inc. announced that it will implement the IDeaL/YIELD system at Vail Beaver Creek Resort Properties just after the start of the 1999/2000 ski season.
The IDeaL/YIELD system will assist the yield professionals from Vail Resorts to optimize room revenues from 252 condos and two hotels located in the Beaver Creek Resort area. This will bring the total number of rooms at Vail Resorts impacted by the IDeaL/YIELD system to more than 1,800. The system was introduced at the Keystone Resorts in 1996 and later expanded in 1998 to include the Great Divide Lodge at Breckenridge Resort. Vail Resorts receives more than $1,000,000 in incremental revenues, which are directly attributed to the IDeaL/YIELD system. "The benefits we have received from the IDeaL/YIELD system have been significant," said Bruce Mainzer, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Vail Resorts, Inc. According to Mainzer, the amount of revenue increases attributed to the system at the existing locations definitely contributed to the decision to now include it at Beaver Creek. "We have confidence in the yield management solution from IDeaS to help us achieve our revenue and occupancy goals," added Mainzer. "In our business, the more a property can fill its occupancy during the ski season, the more people that fill the slopes. This is just one more benefit for us that we credit in part to a sound yield management practice and solution." The largest ski resort operator in North America, Vail Resorts chose IDeaS in a move to realize the best possible revenue from room bookings while managing the risk associated with the unpredictable nature of room demand. The yield management solution from IDeaS, which includes the IDeaL/YIELD system, optimizes room revenues for hotels and resorts by ensuring that rooms are sold at the right time, at the right price, and in line with the specific hotel's management strategies. It also enables effective evaluation and placement of group reservations and pricing to increase overall revenues. The solution features in-depth data gathering and analysis for building the system unique to a property's business. Proactive on-line monitoring assures that the property continues to receive maximum system benefits. Measurement of the system's impact is quantified, isolating market and demand changes. IDeaS, Inc., provides its yield management solution exclusively to the hospitality industry. With its corporate headquarters in Eagan, Minnesota, IDeaS also maintains offices in London, Munich, San Francisco, Singapore, Pune and Sydney. Vail Resorts is North America's premier owner and operator of ski resorts.
