(firmenpresse) - FARGO, ND -- (Marketwired) -- 08/07/13 -- Casino Enterprise Management is proud to announce the winners of its fourth annual run of the Hospitality Operations Technology Awards, or HOT Awards.
These awards honor outstanding products in the gaming-hospitality industry. Nominations were divided into five different categories, with one winner selected from each. This year, there was a tie in one of our categories, therefore a total of six products will be honored. The categories were employee productivity and efficiency, revenue generation, guest experience enhancement, self-service products and Internet services. Nominations reflected a range of products that make a positive difference in a casino-hotel's operations.

These select judges were Bob Ambrose, Professor and Independent Gaming Consultant; Donald Kneisel, Vice President of Information Technology, Resorts Casino Hotel; Charly Paelinck, Vice President of Information Technology, Caesars Entertainment; Sheleen Quish, Senior Vice President of Human Resources and IT, Ameristar Casinos Inc.; Wendy Reeve, Chief Executive Officer, Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort; and Kris Singleton, Chief Information Officer, Cosmopolitan Las Vegas.

"It's also important to note that these award-winning products not only offer great potential to contribute to casino-resort efficiency and performance, but also to further enhance the guest experience."
