Twin River Selects MICROS 9700
COLUMBIA, MD, October 16, 2007. MICROS Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: MCRS), a leading provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality and retail industries, is pleased to announce that Twin River, a $220 million world-class gaming, dining and entertainment venue in Lincoln, Rhode Island, has selected MICROS 9700 HMS, mymicros.net and iCare as its technology foundation.
Upon completion in early spring 2007, the property was transformed into a world class entertainment destination offering many new entertainment and dining options, additional gaming space, a new player rewards program, and a 29,000 square foot multipurpose event center.

The mymicros.net Enterprise Reporting solution offers a content-rich Internal portal, giving Twin River management access to hosted applications for point-of-sale, back office, data warehousing, business intelligence and other business applications. Built into the mymicros.net solution, iCare provides the facility a simple way to set up and manage gift cards and point-based loyalty programs.
"We value MICROS as the leader in hospitality technology, and are impressed with its portfolio of proven products designed to provide efficient, flexible, and adaptable solutions for large casino environments," Gittle stated.
