Ariane Systems, a leader in self-service check-in/out technology for the hospitality industry, has launched an aggressive global growth initiative with an increased focus on the North American market.

The move is spearheaded by the recent relocation of company CEO, Laurent Cardot, to the Washington D.C. area of the US.

Cardot will be joined by a senior level deployment specialist, Ewina Yim, further enhancing the company's presence to make its solutions more accessible to hoteliers throughout the region.

Co-founder Michel Lavandier will remain President and will oversee all EMEA operations, while Miles Gaudoin, currently Managing Director of Northern Europe, will step up as Head of Sales for EMEA.

Ariane Systems has also expanded its integration partnership base with a comprehensive list of North American-based industry-recognized technology solution providers, in order to further enhance operational efficiency for its hotel clients around the globe.

Ariane's newly launched global development initiative facilitates integration of its solutions with some of the world's most renowned keycard and access control manufacturers, including VingCard Elsafe, Kaba Ilco/Saflok, Onity and SALTO Systems.

In an effort to streamline transactions, the company has also linked its self-service platform with multiple payment service providers that include Merchant Link, Shift4, SIX Payment Services, Ingenico Group and Verifone.

Integrations with several PMS providers such as Oracle/Micros, PAR Springer Miller, Cenium, and Infor also serve the purpose of enhancing property operations and efficiency.

To further ensure that hoteliers throughout North America have the ability to gain access to cutting edge hospitality solutions, Ariane Systems is also developing partnerships alongside industry-recognized brands, such as Guestdriven, iRis Software Solutions, Nor1, Runtriz and StaynTouch.

"We are extremely pleased to be working alongside some of the industry's leading technological providers in order to supply properties with the latest in convenience and efficiency that hospitality currently has to offer," said Laurent Cardot. "With the North American market continuing to experience substantial growth in both rates and occupancy levels across various travel segments, we believe that Ariane Systems is in a prime position to promote even further growth and revenues for hotels with its guest experience-enhancing solutions."

Serving as Chief Executive Officer at Ariane's Paris-based headquarters for more than 14 years, Cardot will continue to oversee all aspects of the global organization from his new U.S. regional base, while directing the North American expansion.
