Carlson Hotels Worldwide Begins Roll-Out of TopLine PROFIT Enterprise (TLPe), OPUS 2's Centralized Revenue Management Solution, at the Radisson Plaza Hotel in Minneapolis

TopLine PROFIT Enterprise (TLPe) is the industry's only enterprise centralized revenue management solution designed to deliver increased hotel revenues from existing demand. TLPe is able to produce a remarkable short- term return on investment for Carlson hotel brands, thanks to the streamlined implementation process, which does not require any additional hardware on property.

"Implementing automated revenue management has been one of our key goals and we are happy to report TopLine PROFIT Enterprise has been successfully installed," said Jim Callaghan, General Manager of the Radisson Plaza Hotel. "Since the system is Windows-based and fully integrated with our central reservations system, the training has been quick and easy, and our staff already feels comfortable with it."

Scott Heintzeman, CIO for Carlson Hotels Worldwide, stated, "After an extensive review of providers, we chose OPUS 2 because they offer an effective, scalable and centralized RMS solution. TopLine PROFIT Enterprise allows us to deploy easily and manage rate settings and many other critical revenue management functions from our headquarters. We are excited about TLPe's ability to deliver a competitive edge to our hotels."

"The TopLine PROFIT Enterprise (TLPe) complements MICROS-Fidelio's full- featured Property Management System already deployed in much of Carlson's hotel portfolio," stated Tim Kinsella, General Manager of OPUS 2 Revenue Technologies. "The industry asked for a product that better fits into overall corporate goals and objectives. OPUS 2 has delivered with TLPe, offering a more strategic approach to revenue management previously unavailable. In addition, we are pleased to have the opportunity to offer dynamic new solutions to our long-time MICROS customers, maximizing the value of their existing technology investment. Our systems are growing right along with our customers."
