Aptech Unveils TVNG, Its Next-generation Budgeting and Forecasting Tool Purpose-Built for the Hospitality Industry

Pittsburgh, PA – Aptech, a leading provider of scalable accounting, business intelligence, financial planning and management solutions for the hospitality industry, today announced the launch of TVNG, its next-generation budgeting and forecasting solution for hotels.
Designed to empower finance managers and department heads to make more informed decisions, TVNG ultimately enables organizations to achieve their strategic objectives. The solution actively engages budget managers with an intuitive non-Excel interface that walks them step-by-step through the process and allows them to document their reasons for each decision along the way.
Purpose-built for hotels, TVNG provides property finance teams with a complete set of tools, controls, and built-in reports, with the ability to integrate with Excel for custom data crunching. It features flexible budgeting functionality using a guided approach with an interactive budget navigation map tailored to each department, which orients each user to where they are in the process and how they are doing against finance guidelines.
With the integration of actual data from PVNG, blended forecasts are available throughout the year to manage against budgets, identify trends and track the specific data needed to make changes to your plan. TVNG has two forecasting options–at the account level or below the account level–plus, long-term projections can be generated using forecasts to estimate broader trends for strategic planning purposes.
Ultimately, a hotel organization's budget needs to be a numerical expression of the strategic plan and that requires engagement, communication, and collaboration. TVNG offers a full suite of integrated components that on one side, ensures ease-of-use and a flexible budgeting process for department managers, and on the other side, more advanced tools developed specifically for the needs of the finance team. Aptech President Jill Wilder
TVNG allows user-defined drivers, provides more accurate cost analysis, and adjusts the organization's bottom line accordingly–for a single property or across a full portfolio from one central location. Drivers are defined by the finance team as a control measure, so management can be assured that the right values are being used consistently across the entire organization.
Self-service reporting through TVNG makes the budgeting process less complicated, so all approved users can run reports at any time to see a view of the data, as well as the rationale behind the data. With over 60 flexible standard reports available out of the box, all reports are configurable and immediately accessible to the finance team, budget manager or anyone who has the correct security privileges. Now, finance teams can build flexible driver-based budgets and forecasts, manage the planning process from a central location, and set goals for every area of their organization.
TVNG is an incredible new solution for our hotel customers to add to their financial planning toolbox , continued Wilder. With our three industry-leading solutions for accounting—(PVNG), budgeting and forecasting (TVNG), and business intelligence (Execuvue)—hotel companies can better understand their financial data and turn it into actionable insights. Through our close customer relationships, we're able to continue to develop new solutions like TVNG in answer to the challenges these hotels face and provide the right tools that allow them to access more accurate data for their finance teams .
Aptech will be demonstrating TVNG at HITEC 2025 in booth #3000 from June 17-19 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. To schedule an appointment with the Aptech team at HITEC, please visit https://www.aptech-inc.com/contact/.

Deivid Paiva has been promoted Director of Beverage & Food at W Abu Dhabi

W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island has announced the promotion of Deivid Paiva to Director of Beverage & Food, marking a fresh step in the property's evolution as a bold dining and lifestyle destination. He brings over two decades of experience in luxury hospitality, including his time at Michelin-starred restaurants and global five-star brands across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. In his new role, Paiva moves from leading the culinary operation to now commanding the entire table. Overseeing seven signature dining venues, in-room dining, banqueting, and beverage operations, he's dialling up the energy across every touchpoint. From concept and culture to numbers and nightlife, his focus is sharper and his scope bigger. Paiva will be responsible for concept development, team leadership, guest experience strategy, and operational execution, ensuring every aspect reflects the brand's distinctive energy and boundary-pushing approach to hospitality. With W Race Weekend spectacles, seasonal takeovers, and bold collabs in the pipeline, Paiva's next chapter will remain focused on delivering experiences that are as bold as the brand itself. Paiva joined the hotel in 2022 and shortly thereafter assumed the role of Director of Culinary, quickly becoming one of the driving forces behind the property's F&B evolution. Over the last three years, he's led a team of over 100 professionals, rolled out new menu concepts, successfully launched two exciting new restaurant concepts from New York - Brooklyn Chop House and Pappas Taverna, and delivered the hotel's most successful Race Weekend to date. Under his leadership, venues like Garage restaurant earned serious industry cred, with the B.I.G. Brunch becoming a category-defining experience and flipping the script on the capital's brunch scene. Before joining W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island, Paiva worked with renowned names including The Ritz-Carlton Tianjin, Shangri-La Bangkok, China World Summit Wing Beijing, and the Michelin-starred Chapter One in Dublin. He brings a hands-on approach, is detail-focused, and deeply grounded in creating dynamic dining experiences, whether that means reimagining a casual poolside setup or driving strategy for large-scale events.

Marriott International Introduces MARRIOTT MEDIA, a New Media Network Shaped for the Traveler

Marriott International today announced the launch of MARRIOTT MEDIA, signaling change and a new chapter in how brands engage with consumers across the traveler journey. MARRIOTT MEDIA is a media network shaped for the traveler. Different from traditional media networks, MARRIOTT MEDIA puts the customer and the travel journey at the center – connecting relevant brands with customers at the right time, across digital and physical touchpoints, and with a contextually relevant message. By using first-party data and 200+ targetable attributes across the nearly 237-million member Marriott Bonvoy program and from Marriott's lodging portfolio comprised of nearly 9,500 properties globally, MARRIOTT MEDIA helps enable targeting by combining demographic information with guest behavior, travel intent, and traveler passions. Thoughtful design of messaging and creative, coupled with targeted audience selection and robust measurement capability across the marketing funnel, will offer marketers campaign performance with closed loop attribution. Guest data is used responsibly and in accordance with all applicable regulations. The platform is consent-based, with easy opt-out options for guests, providing transparency and trust. Today's travelers expect personalization and welcome thoughtful discovery. MARRIOTT MEDIA is designed to enrich, not interrupt, serving guests content, recommendations, and offers in ways that feel natural, relevant, and aligned with their travel experience. I'm excited to announce Chris Norton, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Data Activation & Personalization, will lead this bold initiative and serve as the General Manager for MARRIOTT MEDIA. Peggy Roe, Executive Vice President and Chief Customer Officer at Marriott International Norton added: Our goal is to offer select brand partners the opportunity to create deeper engagement with customers through the lens of travel and our brands. Through sophisticated measurement, including brand lift and awareness studies, attributable conversions, and advanced modeling, we empower our brand partners to align their campaigns with our travelers, ensuring meaningful engagement at every touchpoint . Working with select brands, MARRIOTT MEDIA will curate brand experiences across Marriott-owned digital platforms such as and the Marriott Bonvoy app, placement within the room and stay experience, third-party websites, and social platforms. MARRIOTT MEDIA collaborated with select brands for an initial pilot including PepsiCo., Visa, United Airlines, Uber, Starbucks, F1® THE MOVIE, Audible, American Express and Resy. The ability to engage with travelers on a connected journey through digital and physical touchpoints and its seamless integration model sets the network apart. MARRIOTT MEDIA bridges advertiser content and native Marriott content, making it possible for brand messaging to engage guests in high-trust, high-attention spaces, from curated pre-arrival recommendations to bespoke in-room experiences and post-stay reengagement. This media model allows marketers to move fluidly with customers at points in the journey when they are most interested in relevant content and new discovery, serving not only impressions but compelling offers and memorable touchpoints. One of MARRIOTT MEDIA's most compelling placements is alongside Marriott Bonvoy's original content shown on Marriott Bonvoy TV. Doubling down on the power of storytelling, this longer form placement gives brands a unique opportunity to connect, through narrative that engages travelers with in-room content throughout their stay. With a portfolio of more than 30 hotel brands that is loved by many of the most loyal and highest-spending travelers in the world, MARRIOTT MEDIA offers marketers access to travelers who stay longer, spend more, and are deeply engaged with the brands they trust. For media buyers and brand strategists, hospitality media is no longer an ancillary channel, it's poised to become a growth engine. With plans to scale the network into global markets, MARRIOTT MEDIA's emphasis on authenticity will remain a key differentiator. Experiences will be localized, cultural context will be prioritized, and brand safety will be implemented, by design, as branded content is curated for the Marriott traveler journey.
