COLUMBIA, Md., June 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- MICROS
Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCRS), a leading provider of information
technology solutions for the hospitality and retail industries, is
pleased to announce that Outrigger Enterprises Group, one of the
largest and fastest growing privately-held leisure lodging and
hospitality companies in the Asia-Pacific and Oceania regions, is
standardizing its enterprise on the MICROS OPERA Enterprise
Solution. In addition to its four Asia-based properties that are already
utilizing MICROS OPERA, Outrigger will begin implementation of the
OPERA Property Management Solution (PMS) at its 35 properties in
Hawaii and the Asia-Pacific region beginning in July 2013.
MICROS OPERA's two-way interface with the proprietary central
reservation system currently used by Outrigger and MICROS' global
service and support network, were major factors in the selection by
Outrigger of MICROS OPERA. With over 45 Outrigger properties
worldwide, MICROS OPERA's ability to offer a multi-property
platform on a single database streamlines functions across all
Outrigger locations, making managing hotel operations easier and
highly efficient.
"With advanced functionality and interface capabilities, MICROS
OPERA offers all the features that we require," stated Alan White, Senior Vice President and Chief
Information Officer for Outrigger Enterprises Group. "A robust and
globally supported central solution will provide Outrigger the
tools necessary to systematically expand our brand."
"MICROS is pleased that the success of our OPERA implementations
at the Outriggers properties in Asia-Pacific has led to an expansion of our
partnership," stated Dan Bell,
Senior Vice President Hotel Business Unit for MICROS Systems.
"Having a centralized solution seamlessly integrated across all of
its properties provides Outriggers stronger control of hotel
operations. We look forward to growing the partnership as
Outrigger leverages more of the MICROS OPERA Enterprise Solution
suite."
