For Immediate Release
Margaritaville selects EatecNetX to help manage the future
Emeryville, CA, July 25, 2006 – Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville announced today the selection of EatecNetX from Eatec Corporation, a leading provider of back office enterprise technology solutions and services for the hospitality and foodservice industry.
"The challenge for us was to select a back office solution to satisfy our current and future business requirements," said Eric Forward, CFO for Margaritaville. "EatecNetX gives us a real-time, above-store view of our business as well the ability to monitor and control inventory, the supply chain, cash & sales performance as well as implement standardized business rules and processes across the company that will support our business growth and expansion."
Because EatecNetX encompasses Microsoft software and enterprise technology, Margaritaville chose to install EatecNetX as a hosted system at Eatec's secure data center in Emeryville, CA and maintain Internet connectivity to each Margaritaville restaurant, where daily processes including purchase orders, receiving, physical count data entry and sales forecasting are supported with instantaneous response.
This deployment approach was opted to allow all levels of management to focus their attention on improving controls, standards and business intelligence rather than worrying about installing, updating, and running technology.
Margaritaville will also take advantage of EatecNetX integration capabilities to round out a complete enterprise-level view of their business. Eatec's Exchange Client product will manage POS integration from multiple restaurant POS platforms including Infogenesis, Micros and Aloha as well as a financial accounting interface to Microsoft Dynamics GP.
