Background briefing
TAC was founded in 2001.

Main services
TAC supplies Reservation Assistant Spa & Activity Software to facilitate all procedures necessary for successful spa management.
The software provides provable increases in efficiency by coordinating important functions such as reservations and billing, retail and guest relationship management, voucher management and table reservations, golf course management, stock control, package reservations, employee scheduling, membership management, webshop/online reservations and mobile loyalty cards. TAC also offers training as well as so ware maintenance and 24/7 support.
Reservation Assistant, the Spa & Activity so ware by TAC, is now accessible by iPads, allowing spa staff to leave the reception area and address guests, sell treatments and make reservations via their iPads.
The complementary RA Dashboard also allows spa operators to look at key performance indicators at the touch of a button, via a ‘cockpit’ comprising small application windows (widgets). Current utilisation of treatment rooms and therapists, turnover gures, top-selling product and guest origin data can be easily viewed at a glance.

Additional services
Another feature of Reservation Assistant is the SMS Notification Service. Spas can automatically send reservation reminders to their guests and in this way avoid no-shows. Digital Signage has also been developed by TAC – an electronic poster informing guests about the service portfolio or news at strategic locations such as the hotel lobby or spa reception. This modern communication technology not only helps spas to boost sales by communicating special offers or available treatments, but also allows for guest-selfservice and saves the environment by making paper posters redundant.

Unique selling points
More than 100 real-time interfaces, such as interfaces to the accounting system or the access control system, guarantee a smooth integration of Reservation Assistant into various external systems for joint use of data.
Reservation Assistant is available in different languages, such as Chinese, Russian and Finnish, and can be purchased, leased or procured as a so ware-as-a-service solution.

Top clients
Hyatt Hotels Corporation, La Mamounia, Rocco Forte, Swissotel, Kempinski, Lindner, Travel Charme, Belle Mare Plage, Radisson, Grand Resort Bad Ragaz, the Dolder Grand, Palace Gstaad, Victoria-Jungfrau, and Nivea Haus Spa Hamburg and Berlin, Germany.

Where in the world?
TAC distributes to more than 50 countries worldwide and to over 4,000 users.

Who’s who?
Thomas Roessler, managing director; Guenther Poellabauer, director marketing and sales; Gernot Tobisch, director operations.

What the clients say
“With its ASP solution, RA is fully in line with our overall trend toward Cloud Computing – purchasing services instead of purchasing servers. For us, this means our spa’s can focus on managing the customer, and not the system infrastructure.”
Mike Blake, chief information officer, Hyatt Hotels Corporation
“RA helps us to deal with the challenges of daily spa and golf management in a flexible way. The TAC team has proven to be flexible and accommodating to our queries. And the many impressive international companies in their reference list did the rest to convince us.”
Emmanuel Clave, corporate IT director, The Rocco Forte Collection
