Business Software to Help Casino Operator Integrate Multi-National Operations, Enhance Visibility and Foster Future Growth LAS VEGAS, Nov. 18
LAS VEGAS, Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- (G2E Conference) -- Infor today
announced Paragon Gaming, a developer and operator of gaming based properties,
has selected its financial and performance management applications to provide
real-time visibility into the gaming company's business. Sold through
Infinium Software, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Infor, Infor FMS
SunSystems and Infor PM Planning and Budgeting will seamlessly integrate
within Paragon's diverse technology infrastructure, including its corporate
headquarters in Las Vegas and three properties in Canada, on Microsoft SQL
servers. They will provide company-wide insight into its operations,
including those of third parties, and each department's impact on business
performance.
"The gaming industry is very data intensive, and being able to utilize
that data as efficiently as possible is central to our operational strategy,"
said Justin Kolb, chief financial officer, Paragon Gaming. "Our business must
be as agile as possible to continue offering the excitement and services that
keep our customers coming back. The ability to gain a single, integrated view
of our operations and analyze this data quickly is a key enabler of our
ability to ensure that each of our properties will profitably deliver a great
customer experience."
The gaming industry generates volumes of data from every department,
including food and beverage, marketing, operations, gaming, retail, and hotel.
The financial system integrates flexible transaction processing with real-time
analysis, extensive reporting, and powerful budgeting and forecasting
capabilities. Combined with sophisticated planning and budgeting software,
Paragon Gaming has access to daily reports with actionable information on the
performance of the casino and its many departments.
"Paragon Gaming highlights the complexity that lies within gaming
companies -- several systems in multiple departments with a lot of financial
and statistical information to be captured and the need for this information
to be actionable," said Debbie Hawkins, vice president, Hospitality Solutions
Group, Infor.
"Infor and its Infinium subsidiary bring more than 25 years of domain
experience in gaming and hospitality and offer business-specific applications
for a variety of technology infrastructures. This combination creates
enhanced value for our customers and enables us to meet their specific needs
today while providing the foundation for efficient operations tomorrow."
PAS, an Infor implementation partner with more than 15 years experience in
the hospitality industry, will provide the unique skill sets required to
ensure proper implementation of the solution throughout Paragon Gaming's
properties.
