BARRINGTON, IL - June 17th, 2009 - Trondent Development Corp. announced today that Omega World Travel, the fourth largest travel management company in the United States, is among the first launch customers of Trondent's next generation profile management system. ProFILER Express, a browser-based profile builder and maintenance tool, gives travel professionals the ability to create, configure and customize web-based profile forms, ultimately enabling them to instantly publish their profile forms to the Internet. TMC's and corporations globally have expressed strong interest in this highly intuitive and easy to use tool, but Omega will be leading the group in the deployment cycle. "With ProFILER Express, we finally have the ability to quickly and cost-effectively build and maintain our own web-based profile management system", says George Fant, Omega World Travel's Chief Information Officer. "Since the tool is GDS and online booking tool agnostic, ProFILER Express enables us to synchronize traveler profiles to a broad range of downstream targets. The flexibility and customization capability within ProFILER Express gives us the power to build unique account-level profile forms and URLs that extend beyond simply adding logos and color schemes", continued Fant. "Omega World Travel has been a valued Trondent client for many years" says Lana Parro, Trondent's Chief Operating Officer. "As a strategic partner, and most recently as a software BETA tester, Omega has been instrumental in our ProFILER Express development, testing and final product release efforts. Omega's decision to deploy ProFILER Express is a testament to the many months of hard work and dedication that our team has invested in this effort. Our release of ProFILER Express further demonstrates Trondent's long-term commitment to being an innovator in the business travel technology sector", continued Parro. ProFILER Express gives travel management companies (TMCs) and corporate travel departments the ability to quickly and cost-effectively deploy web-based traveler profile sites. ProFILER Express is a Trondent-hosted software application that is completely GDS, online booking tool and TMC independent. Where applicable, profiles are synchronized in real-time to any major GDS, online booking tool or third party database. HR data integration is also available for corporations who want their traveler profiles to remain in sync with their own HR records.
