Ritz-Carlton in Partnership with MeetingMatrix
MARCH 1, 2007. After industry wide research The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, LLC has selected MeetingMatrix International as their preferred room diagram software solutions partner. MeetingMatrix will ensure continued high levels of service delivery to Ritz-Carlton customers with the very best meeting planning technology available in today's marketplace.
Scott Duty, Director of Sales Information Technology, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, advised, "With MeetingMatrix we will provide event planners detailed 3-D drawings of their events with a multitude of options and accuracy in every detail. For example, if a planner wants to see what a ballroom looks like during a meeting or special event, we can show them precisely the number of tables, size and location of the dance floor, linen colors, centerpieces and bar locations in color. An event planner can even see all views of the room; from the podium, or the seat furthest from the podium. Should a planner wish to view an alternate room configuration or a selection of linen displays, the system can show a new setup within seconds."
J. Michael Keller, MeetingMatrix International's President and CEO commented, "We are truly delighted to be working with The Ritz-Carlton. We believe the true value of our software is the communication that MeetingMatrix enables between Ritz-Carlton hotels and their customers, providing them with a real competitive advantage."
