CHICAGO, 1-June-2001 - Maxim Revenue Management Solutions (MaximRMS) is pleased to announce that it has released an updated version of the maxim® Revenue Management System. First installations were completed in European properties of one of the world’s largest international hotel chains. Additional installations are currently underway at leading international hotel chains in the United States and other properties in Europe.
maxim is a state-of-the-art Revenue Management System for the hospitality and car rental industries. maxim differentiates itself from other revenue management systems through its patented optimization engine trademarked as the "Marginal Value Engine™" (MVE). The mathematical algorithms that are utilized by the MVE™ result in the highest level of revenue in rate and room offerings for sale. The new version includes enhancements such as new group forecasting, comprehensive tools to evaluate group impact on transient business and the ability to incorporate ancillary revenues when the system determines the best mix of rates and room types to offer for sale. The new version also offers intra-day forecasting as needed to capture last minute changes in reservation activities.
maxim‘s group forecasting takes into consideration budgeted and/or current blocked information at the definite, tentative and prospective levels. This creates an extremely precise group forecast and ensures all "real world" constraints are taken into consideration when determining what should be for sale. maxim tracks group booking patterns and notifies users when group activity/behavior is abnormal, allowing for critical changes to be made.
