Under the
enhanced agreement, Playtech will implement its Neon Slots system to manage the
group’s 3,000 electronic gaming machines and the Neon Tables iPad application
to cover 650 tables at Grosvenor. Rank will also migrate its 54 casinos from
its existing system to Neon during the second half of the year.
This week’s
extension comes just one year after the companies struck an initial deal to
implement Playtech’s Neon casino management system across the casino estate. Rank
is also currently using the Neon Analytics business intelligence platform.
"We worked
as a team to address a wide range of technical challenges and business
innovations and have successfully rolled out a system which is performing well
across the estate, and meeting our business and technical goals,” Grovesnor
Casinos’ head of finance Richard Playle said.
"Migrating
our gaming systems to Playtech will enable us to complete our modernisation,
offer an improved player experience and complete our vision for a single
account and wallet across our retail and digital businesses,” Playle added.
Martin
Sykes, managing director of Playtech Retail subsidiary Intelligent Gaming, commented: "We developed new features, optimised
Neon for deployment in the Cloud, provided numerous integrations and supported
the transition from the legacy systems, keeping data in step as we implemented
the 54 sites.”
