Accovia Inc.
and QlikTech International today announced a partnership to integrate QlikTech’s QlikView business intelligence and analysis software with Accovia’s Travel
Package Management solution.  The partnership will allow airlines, hoteliers, travel agencies and tour operators to access, analyze, understand
and distribute meaningful operational information from disparate databases
to support better and faster business decisions. Executives will be able to
generate ‘what if’ packaging scenarios that help determine how to maximize
revenue and minimize loss, identify purchasing trends, and analyze
profitability per customer and product.

Travel providers and marketers need to quickly determine which packaged
offerings will yield the highest margins, which suppliers and distributors
best contribute to the business, and which marketing promotions convert the
most shoppers to buyers.  The incorporation of QlikView into Accovia’s
Travel Package Management solution allows Accovia’s customers to easily
access, view and provide meaningful business information throughout the
organization.

“We are delighted to have Accovia as a certified QlikView application
partner,” said Chris Berg, president and CEO of QlikTech Inc.  “Combining
Accovia’s knowledge and solutions for the travel industry with our powerful
yet easy-to-use analysis and reporting capabilities, will create an
outstanding software solution for helping travel package providers become
more competitive and profitable.”

“In the current economic environment, travel providers and marketers need to
quickly understand where revenues are being generated or lost,” said Claude
Guay, president and CEO of Accovia.  “QlikView will help our customers
facilitate successful multi-channel management, maximize marketing
investments and make more informed business decisions. We have developed a
standard set of modules and templates based on our products, which are
generic to the entire travel industry so that travel service providers can
benefit from the Accovia Business Intelligence Solution, regardless of
whether or not they are using our Travel Package Management Solution or a
database of products.”

By combining QlikView with Accovia’s Modules or Templates, information is
displayed to users in a highly interactive, intuitive and graphical
environment.  These displays, or “dashboards,” can contain information
retrieved from any data source such as Sales, CRM or Financial applications,
providing an integrated view of operational information across multiple
departments. Each Module or Template maps to a specific business area or
process including, but not limited to, Scheduled Air Sales, Product Sales,
Inventory Monitoring and Operations.
