With the merger of HSS and HIS Asia we have a stronger company in the region which allows us to maximize the products and skills of the two organizations and expand our market position and customer base. stated W. Brian Kretzmer President and CEO of MAI Systems Corporation. Further, I am delighted with the addition of Harbans Singh as President of our Asian operations. His many years of experience in the local market provide us with an established innovator and leader.
HIS’ epitome Enterprise Solutions are designed specifically to enable hoteliers to centralize multi-property operations, improve guest loyalty, increase profitability and manage the many new buy-side reservation channels. As a result of the acquisition, the HIS Asia epitome product line will now include epitome Vb, a fully integrated suite of on-property applications to include Front Office, Accounting, Sales & Catering and Point of Sale. This addition allows HIS Asia to provide an offering that addresses multiple customer segments from corporate enterprises to properties that require an integrated suite of applications.
Harbans Singh added, The new organization results in a combined user base of over 400 customers, making us one of the largest in the region. This also allows us to offer multiple product and deployment options to the Asian market, without the complication of requiring multiple vendors. Our epitome Enterprise Solutions enables us to provide the market with innovative, world-class on-property and corporate enterprise solutions. This together with the HSS’ product line which includes Club, Marina and Golf Management, wireless PDA solutions, Smart Card applications, etc. will enable our customers to benefit from truly integrated solutions working with a strong organization which has had a 15 year track record in the market!
