MaximRMS Announces Integration of Opera PMS with the eFlex Revenue Management System
CHICAGO, Illinois - November 22, 2007 - Maxim Revenue Management Solutions (MaximRMS) announced the integration of the Opera Property Management System (PMS) into the overall revenue management process used by Maxim client hotels. Hotels around the world use the Maxim eFlex Revenue Management System to control their rates and availability on a daily basis, across all market segments, room types, lengths of stay, and distribution channels. eFlex takes full or partial inventory and reservations, rate, and accounting data from the MICROS-Fidelio Opera PMS and returns rates and controls.
The eFlex Revenue Management System imports and analyzes the reservations from multiple CRS, S&CS and PMS, conducts its patented forecasting and optimization across market segments and distribution channels, and delivers optimal rates and controls that maximize the profits, not just the revenues, of the property over time. eFlex can be used for a single hotel, within a cluster of hotels, or across an entire chain comprising multiple types of hotels, levels of service, and brands. "The integration of Opera adds yet another extended 2-way interface for inventory and reservations," states Steve Gelb, CEO of MaximRMS, "eFlex combines multiple OTA, PMS, S&CS and CRS data streams into an integrated view of the inventory and reservations for the hotel. eFlex then delivers optimal rates and controls to each reservations system/channel to best optimize the mix across all potential business." MaximRMS will be working with their client hotels to rollout these new capabilities to their properties.
