The information below provides highlights of the Agency Management System (AMS) that BPI has developed for PTLA members. BPI's proposed system provides a unique combination of payroll functionality, contact management, workflow control and audit capability, as well as the ability to track and report associated general ledger costs.

The AMS includes the following:
* Tax processing and filing (federal, state and local)
* Self-Service module for employee direct access to their own information
* Leave tracking (typical vacation, sick and flex time)
* Supplemental payroll runs (and ANY off-cycle payroll)
* Job costing module
* Employee W-2 & consultant 1099 production (printed annually)
* Non-recurring processing (termination or supplemental payments)
* Software upgrades & enhancements
* Electronic library of reports
* Complete interface with company's existing accounting software (Great Plains, Peach Tree, etc.)

Also included in the system are unique solutions to typically labor-intensive reports that many organizations struggle to reconcile. Examples of these solutions are:

Expense Reimbursement Process (ERP)
Automate online reporting and reimbursement of expenses (real time)
- personal logon and data entry
- downloadable data for reimbursement (credit card info, etc.)
- online Supervisory oversight & approval
- ability to incorporate expense reimbursement to paycheck or send separate payment via ACH, eliminating weeks of waiting for payment
- removes expense of cutting checks & paying postage
- audit ready library of expense reports, kept on file & never deleted, for every employee

Bonus Calculation System (BCS)
- consolidation of information from all systems and databases for bonus computation
- real time report on where company and individual stands in relation to bonus available for all affected parties
- automated goals and standings for all levels (individuals, division, corporation, resort, etc.)
- tracking of inventory

The system has far more capability than has been outlined here. One of the best features is that you have the capacity to upgrade and modify the system, at no additional cost and at all times, simply by articulating how, where, why or what the data needs to look like. In every instance where we have designed and implemented a customized solution for a client, there have been drastic improvements in efficiency, productivity and reporting resulting in cost reductions across the board.

The beauty of the Agency Management System is that, to the client, there are NO development or implementation costs of ANY kind. The only obligation is an investment in time, typically around one hour, to gather the information so that a demonstration of the system can be built to your exact specifications.

In light of today's unstable economy Broadband Hospitality is now offering a shorter term plan for High Speed Internet Support to all new customers.

Partnering with PTLA, Broadband Hospitality can now offer 36 month discount pricing on a 12 MONTH CONTRACT.

In the ever-changing technology arena it has become apparent that hotels are looking for shorter commitments in order to be able to quickly adapt to market driven and technology driven plans. With this new offering your hotel will be able to adapt while at the same time enjoy the benefits of discount pricing that until now has only been available with longer terms. This program is open to hotels that contract with Broadband Hospitality for our IN-HOUSE 24x7 help desk regardless of who did the installation.

From wired to wireless to Data-Over-Voice, Broadband Hospitality will develop, install, and maintain an internet solution to meet your hotel's unique needs as well as the needs of your guests to have a quality support call center.

With the Choice Rx Prescription Drug Discount Card, helping employees cover prescription costs just got easier...

Skyrocketing insurance costs mean that hoteliers cannot always provide healthcare benefits for all of their employees, and employees cannot always afford to pay monthly contributions for their insurance. As a result, some go without healthcare coverage. Now, AH&LA & PTLA bring members an affordable way to help your employees access the prescription drugs they need for less.

What is the Choice Rx Prescription Drug Discount Card?
The Choice Rx Prescription Drug Discount Card is a card that offers a discount of up to 50% on all drugs at participating pharmacies to all of your employees, whether they have no insurance coverage, are underinsured, or have health insurance.

What's the cost to me and my employees?
As an exclusive, members-only benefit, there is NO COST if ordered online.

How does the card work?
Employees simply present the card when purchasing prescription drugs to receive an on-the-spot discount. Every time your employees use their free Choice Rx Prescription Drug Discount Card, they save money. Employees can use it:
  • If they do not have health insurance
  • As an alternative to high insurance co-pays
  • When insurance does not cover a particular prescription
  • If their family is not covered by their insurance plan
  • When they lose their medication and insurance will not pay for an immediate refill

Where is it accepted?
The Choice Card is accepted at more than 55,000 pharmacies, including Kroger, Costco, Walgreens, Long Drugs, Target, Rite-Aid, CVS/Pharmacy, and all pharmacies in grocery stores.

How can I order the cards or learn more?
The Choice Rx Prescription Drug Discount Card is an exclusive benefit of membership in PTLA. Click here to order online!

With On-Hold Marketing & Communications, hotel clients turn this event into a positive experience. Rather than waste opportunities to communicate to a captive audience by providing DEAD AIR, MUSIC OR A CANNED GENERIC MESSAGE, take advantage of hold time by educating prospective guests about your in-room amenities, renovations, hotel features, accommodations for corporate meetings/large events, catering, restaurant, awards, website…The result is a positive guest experience before they even set foot on your property, and the potential for increased sales as your guest learns information about your hotel they may not otherwise know.
