IDeaS integrates 2,000 properties with Oracle platform

IDEAS, A SAS company specializing in hospitality revenue management software, recently integrated nearly 2,000 properties with the Oracle Hospitality Integration Platform. This connects their RMS solutions, including IDeaS G3 RMS, with Oracle’s OPERA Cloud platform, accessible via OHIP and the Oracle Cloud Marketplace, the companies said in a joint statement.

“The hospitality industry has long craved faster data exchanges and more capabilities to handle ever-increasing data volumes, and OHIP delivers precisely that,” said Klaus Kohlmayr, IDeaS’ chief evangelist and development officer. “By accelerating data exchange and efficiently transmitting the staggering 12 billion pricing decisions IDeaS processes daily, OHIP empowers us to innovate faster as partners with Oracle. This goes beyond pricing and forecasting. It unlocks the true potential of data-driven revenue management, allowing hoteliers to make smarter decisions and achieve optimal results.”


The two companies share nearly 10,000 clients, the statement said. IDeaS is connecting 50 to 100 hotels per week, allowing for faster implementation of future capabilities and additional solutions.

“Oracle Cloud Marketplace is a treasure trove of some of the best hospitality software and services available on the market today,” said Laura Calin, Oracle’s vice president of hospitality strategy and solutions management. “Our partner IDeaS Revenue Solutions can now take advantage of our self-service integration platform, allowing them to scale deployments and significantly simplify the support model of their interface.”

In March, IDeaS launched the G3 RMS Portfolio Navigator for multi-property revenue management automation. This tool analyzes business and market trends to identify revenue opportunities, enabling swift responses to market changes.

Founded in 1989, IDeaS is led by cofounders Ravi Mehrotra as president and chief scientist and Sanjay Nagalia as chief operating and technology officer.
