ATLANTA (June 17, 2010) — HBSi, an IBS Group company, announced today that IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) will use HBSi to automate reservations processing and distribution of availability, rates and inventory to some of its top leisure and wholesale outlets, members of HBSi’s extensive network of demand partners. These distribution partners will gain access to IHG’s rooms across its global inventory of more than 4,400 hotels under seven brands, including Holiday Inn®, Crowne Plaza® and Staybridge Suites®. “At IHG, we knew it would be critical to find the right solution provider that can support our unique selling strategies both effectively and efficiently,” said Andrew Rubinacci, vice president of distribution and intermediary sales for IHG. “We chose HBSi for its reputation for success with interfaces to the leisure channels and for its strengths in delivering innovative distribution technology." Greg Berman, chief operating officer of HBSi, added, “Our development process with IHG demonstrates our ability and commitment to provide solutions that provide measurable long-term business benefit. The HBSi team will work with IHG to identify additional distribution partners with whom they seek to automate distribution.” In addition to leisure and wholesale channels, HBSi also offers connectivity to a wide range of online travel agencies (OTAs) around the world.
