It built and manages a diverse portfolio of brands across multiple economic segments, including Intercontinental Hotels and Resorts, Crowne Plaza Hotels and Resorts, Holiday Inn, and Holiday Inn Express.
Business Case
The Rate Collection Management (RCM) is envisioned as a tool for collecting complex set of data (rates) for hotel rooms and passing it to the Hotel Content Management system.
Rate Collection Solution
SoloSoft has developed flex-based application integrated with existing Hotel Management tools; it works with XML input and creates XML output.
RCM is a wizard-like application which consists of 9 screens, each step is dependent on the inputs in the preceding steps. A user would need to pass through all the steps to complete the data collection.
