INNCOM and Extenway Join Forces to Deliver Advanced Guestroom Control Systems Over the Extenway Interactive TV Solution
April 10, 2006
Niantic (CT) -- INNCOM international, inc, provider of advanced software-based guestroom control systems, and Extenway Solutions, Inc (TSX Venture Exchange: EY), innovative Interactive TV and Guest Media Solutions provider, today announced a strategic partnership that will enable INNCOM's guestroom technologies to be accessed over the Extenway Interactive TV platform. As a result, both guests and hoteliers will benefit from controlling or monitoring in-room climate, lighting, drape positioning, fan speed, radio and volume, as well as guestroom status.
Using Extenway's CRM (Customer Relationship Management) capabilities, hoteliers will now be able to add preferences to their guest profiles on temperature, lighting, and radio and television stations. For example, rather than just waking up to an annoying buzzer in the morning, a guest may wake to a specific, selected temperature, open drapes, half-dimmed lights, and NBC News on the interactive TV screen.
Rick Quirino, President of INNCOM, said "We are the established leader in guestroom control systems for the global lodging industry, with proven product and technology. The characteristics that make us unique in this domain include patented infrared control technology, seamless integration of telecommunications and control functions, advanced multi-tasking software and easy-to-use human interfaces. We believe that our alliance with Extenway will further reinforce our respective capabilities, delight our customers, and leverage our marketing efforts."
Paul Vokaty, Extenway's Vice-President of Business Development, concurs: "One of the main technological differentiators with the Extenway solution is that we are in the business of providing an interactive and scaleable guestroom platform. This approach allows us to add new applications and services to our customers' installations based on their unique ambitions or amenities. Besides premium entertainment content and innovative 1-to-1 marketing tools, our Interactive TV platform also provides a robust service offering and we believe that our alliance with INNCOM will strengthen this essential service component. We look forward to working together with our new partners at INNCOM to deliver outstanding business results on behalf of our customers, and increased satisfaction for their guests".
