PPDS teams with TigerTMS

PPDS, the exclusive provider of Philips professional displays, including the cutting-edge Philips MediaSuite, has announced its partnership with TigerTMS. This powerful new collaboration brings another level of interface linking for the hospitality sector and a one-stop solution for hoteliers around the globe.

TigerTMS’ iLink scalable Service Bus Platform will interface the PPDS CMND solution with over 80 different hotel property management systems (PMS), bringing its Netflix-ready functionality to life on Philips MediaSuite TVs in hotel guest rooms. The partnership also extends additional, personalised services for guests, such as welcome messaging, bill view, native language selection, personalised offers and express check out, which are not typically available on other interface solutions, or where the customer has decided to build their own.

Anthony Tizzard, International Business Manager PPDS, said: “The team at PPDS is delighted to be working together with Tiger TMS – a company with a proven track record of over 30 years’ experience. With coverage and service extending to five regional offices in different time zones, and 24/7 support, TigerTMS’ worldwide reach fits perfectly with the PPDS strategic mission to deliver solutions that can be rolled out globally, all with our local support as well.”

John Owen, CEO TigerTMS, said: “It’s been incredibly refreshing to work with a display manufacturer that is so customer focused. In particular, the team at PPDS has had the vision to purchase licences with us up front, ensuring the end customer has an easy route to integration in a managed process. PPDS’ PMS.CMND.PRO customer portal is the icing on the cake for integrators and hoteliers, allowing them to make an informed choice about their PMS integration purchase.”
