Four Winds Casino Resort Gains Increased Control, Maximizes Revenue with Use of IDeaS Revenue Optimization
21 September 2010

IDeaS Revenue Optimization, the leading provider of hospitality revenue management solutions and services, today announced that Michigan-based Four Winds Casino Resort has deployed the IDeaS V5i On-Demand Revenue Management solution. Four Winds uses the IDeaS V5i forecasting and decisions to better understand guest and player values, allowing it to assess its market more efficiently and accurately. This allows Four Winds to save money and time by being more targeted in its marketing approach, leading to increased Last Room Value (LRV) and improved company-wide profits.

"We sleep better at night knowing that IDeaS V5i is forecasting the future and suggesting the healthiest rates for our hotel," said Ray Stacy, yield analyst, Four Winds Casino Resort. "In particular, we have found a significant benefit in the use of the Floor Override feature, which gives us the flexibility to position our Best Available Rate (BAR) accurately and efficiently."

Four Winds Casino Resort implemented the IDeaS V5i solution equipped with Floor Override, the Best Available Rate (BAR) module, Group Pricing and Evaluation, and Last Room Value (LRV) features. IDeaS V5i is offered via Software as a Service (SaaS) and can include customized functionality specific to the player value needs of casinos like Four Winds.

"IDeaS considers total customer value, not just one-dimensional revenue management, when evaluating the needs of hotel and independent casino clientele," said Ryan MacLagan, client relationship manager, IDeaS. "By installing IDeaS V5i, Four Winds can anticipate a satisfying increase in revenue and a confident, strong revenue management culture backed by proven science."
