COLUMBIA, Md., May 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MICROS Systems, Inc.
(NASDAQ:MCRS), a leading provider of information technology
solutions for the hospitality and retail industries, is pleased to
announce that Fager's Island, a widely treasured destination in
Ocean City, Maryland, has
implemented an extensive MICROS solution to cut costs and add
additional revenues. Fager's Island recently went live with a
complete solution that includes the MICROS Restaurant Enterprise
Solution (RES), 27 MICROS Workstation 5A (WS5A) hardware
terminals, 5 tablet devices for mobile orders, 16 MICROS Kitchen
Display Systems (KDS), 1 tablet with a wireless scanner for the
gift shop, the mymicros.net business intelligence platform with
mylabor for labor management, MICROS's Table Management
software to control consumer dining experiences, MICROS Tabbedout
for mobile payments, and a complete PMS interface to allow for
smooth room service and billing for its 2 onsite hotels.
After evaluating many different solutions, Fager's Island
selected the MICROS set of solutions to increase its overall bottom
line. With the state-of-the-art and reliable WS5A
terminals, its total cost of ownership for hardware will decrease
considerably. By utilizing tablet devices throughout multiple
remote bar areas, the wait staff is able to take orders more
accurately and efficiently, reduce waste and increase its speed of
service. The MICROS KDS was selected to improve
communications between the site's 4 kitchens, including a remote
raw bar, allowing for lower labor costs, better customer service,
and vastly improved timing between kitchens. MICROS's
business intelligence solutions through the mymicros.net platform
allows for better decision making, cost controls, and reduced
shrinkage. With the addition of MICROS Tabbedout which allows
customers to make payments automatically from their mobile device,
table turns are increased, wait times are reduced, and sales
increased from patrons that purchase additional rounds at the
multiple bar outlets.
"MICROS's proven service model, hardware durability, business
intelligence portal products, and path for future additions of
MICROS eCommerce solutions are all reasons why we selected the
company for our technology needs," declared John Fager, Owner of Fager's Island. "We
are especially pleased to finally have a complete solution that
remains stable in our extremely busy environment. We built a
strong partnership with the local MICROS team and we worked
together to develop the many programs that are instituted and
implemented to best benefit our operations here at Fager's
Island."
"We are thrilled to have formed this strategic partnership with
Fager's Island after proving the increased return on investment
that is realized from MICROS's solutions," stated Ed Chapel, Senior Vice President, MICROS North
American Distribution. "With our new direct distribution and
local support on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, we look forward to expanding our
footprint and service and solutions offerings."
