The Peabody Getting its Ducks in a Row via NEW Financial Budgeting & Forecasting Solution
PITTSBURGH - Known as “The South’s Grand Hotel", The Peabody Memphis, a Forbes Four-Star and AAA Four-Diamond rated property, is an icon in Tennessee. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the hotel is home to five resident Mallard ducks that march daily through its lobby following their Duckmaster. Operating a property of this stature takes precision and hospitality excellence – especially when it comes to financial matters. For the last 20 years, The Peabody has relied on Aptech to automate its enterprise accounting processes. This month, the property will go live with Aptech’s budgeting and forecasting solution, Targetvue, to give its accounting team “one version of the truth.” Targetvue consolidates reports, identifies trends, and eliminates the maintenance and distribution of Excel spreadsheets throughout the organization. Using driver-based models, the solution can be leveraged for workforce management, collaboration, version control, and real-time data aggregation. In addition, automated forecast snapshots give users access to previous and future performance projections. Targetvue can be utilized as a stand-alone tool or fully integrated in conjunction with Aptech’s PVNG accounting and Execuvue business intelligence systems, as well as with other accounting and BI products. The solution uses hospitality drivers for accuracy and ease of changes, and it eliminates the need to distribute and import multiple spreadsheets for consolidating and reporting. The Peabody is nestled in the heart of downtown Memphis and offers a one-of-a-kind experience just blocks from Beale St., the Memphis Rock ‘n Soul Museum, Fed-Ex Forum, Sun Studio, the Orpheum Theatre and the Renasant Convention Center. The hotel features the Capriccio Grill and Chez Philippe restaurants, along with in-room dining and banquet and catering facilities. Also provided is the Feathers Spa, The Athletic Club, and The Peabody Executive Business Center. For more information on Targetvue by Aptech, visit http://www.aptech-inc.com.
