HTI acquires eRes Development

HTI has acquired its eRes Development sister company with immediate effect, said Rory Montgomery, Marketing Manager of HTI.


HTI’s eRes solution is supplied to over 90 groups, spanning more than 2 500 properties in sub-Saharan Africa.


Montgomery said that in terms of the merger, all eRes development and administration staff now fall under the auspices of HTI, with Andre Richards, the MD of eRes Development, appointed as a director of HTI.


“This move makes HTI even more resourceful in terms of overall development – as the entire development team has been absorbed into HTI. Overall efficiencies will also be enhanced as the merger will enable us to reduce any duplication. With this renewed business focus, development work will also be sped up – a benefit that will definitely be felt by our growing client base.”


 HTI recently announced its new road map for its eRes Central Reservation (CRS) and distribution software for the next two years, adding it will be spending up to R12 million on software development.


Montgomery said the company was looking at a slew of feature enhancements, with the new version of eRes set to be browser-based with major architectural changes.
