MINNEAPOLIS – IDeaS Revenue Solutions,
the leading provider of pricing and revenue management software, services and consulting, today
announced Delta Hotels and
Resorts, Canada's leading hotel brand, is implementing IDeaS Revenue Management System
(RMS) throughout its entire network of properties. With 37 owned, managed or franchised hotel properties and almost 10,000 rooms, Delta is engaged
in a major renovation initiative and continues expansion with new hotels coming online. To maximize
the value of this important brand transformation, Delta turned to IDeaS Consulting Services, and
ultimately IDeaS RMS, to equip the company with the market-leading solution to revenue
management. "Delta views advanced revenue management as a cornerstone to our success," said Charles McKee,
VP Marketing, Delta Hotels and Resorts. "We wanted to move fast with a market leader to
consolidate gains we've made through property renovations, new openings and brand repositioning.
IDeaS was a natural choice." "With the advanced forecasting technology that IDeaS RMS provides, plus the ongoing support of
IDeaS Consulting Services, Delta's corporate revenue managers and regional managers have
immediate access and oversight to everything going on in a centralized environment," said Jane
Stampe, Americas managing director for IDeaS. "They can offer better support to their properties,
thereby realizing increased revenue." IDeaS RMS features Best Available Rate (BAR), Channel Management, Multiple Property View, Group
Pricing and Budgeting modules, and has a powerful property dashboard that includes a concise
business summary which enables managers to compare on-books, occupancy forecast and estimated
revenue to budgets and user forecasts. IDeaS RMS' powerful performance trends charts provide
Delta's users with quick and flexible access to their most important data. McKee notes that IDeaS RMS helps Delta look at how it segments markets and analyzes the
standard operating procedures required for superior revenue management and sales processes.
IDeaS RMS' group pricing module is providing significant benefits to Delta's sales team, enabling
managers to input the parameters for a given group, and obtain a price quote; managers can even
use the module to compare proposals from different groups. "IDeaS RMS is enabling accelerated performance, and the company has been a great provider of
more than just software," added McKee. "IDeaS consulted on several projects, and ensured excellent
organizational buy-in through its revenue management 'boot camps' and online training tools." The rollout of IDeaS RMS started in December 2013 and is being conducted in phases, several hotels
at a time. Delta expects the majority of its hotels to be live on IDeaS RMS by July 2014.
