Beer30 and GoTab Announce Strategic Partnership to Revolutionize Brewery Operations

Revolutionizing Brewery Management with Seamless Integration and Real-Time Data Insights

ARLINGTON, Va., September 16th 2024, GoTab, a leading POS platform, has partnered with Beer30® by The 5th Ingredient®, a top brewery management software, to transform brewery operations through seamless integration and real-time data insights. This strategic partnership enhances accuracy, reduces manual errors, and streamlines brewery management.

The integration between GoTab and Beer30 connects front-of-house operations with back-end inventory management, allowing breweries to automatically sync inventory levels and sales data. This eliminates the need for manual reconciliations and helps prevent costly mistakes, ensuring accurate and up-to-date inventory at all times.

“Our partnership with Beer30 allows breweries to focus on brewing great beer while we handle the operational complexities,” said Tim McLaughlin, Co-Founder and CEO of GoTab. “This integration empowers breweries to operate more efficiently and profitably.”

Beyond inventory management, the partnership provides detailed sales reports, enabling breweries to easily track and compare revenue from wholesale and POS transactions. This visibility supports better decision-making and improved financial performance.

Beer30’s customizable platform meets the unique needs of each brewery, cutting unnecessary costs and streamlining administrative tasks. This enables breweries to spend more time on production and sales, enhancing overall efficiency.

“This integration is a game-changer for our Beer30 customers, as we are providing the tools and insights needed to optimize operations between their taproom POS and their actual production processes and inventory,” said Pulkit K. Agrawal, Founder and CEO of Beer30 and The 5th Ingredient. “Tim and the GoTab team have built a truly innovative product, and we’re excited to partner with them to help breweries maximize their potential.”

Situated “in the heart of it all, yet tranquil enough to make you feel away from it all too,” The Limelight Hotel Snowmass offers 99 hotel rooms and 11 residences, as well as footsteps-to-gondola access in winter and summer — right in the middle of Snowmass Base Village.

The Situation

Especially over the last few years, the Limelight Hotels IT team had witnessed a significant shift to contactless technology in the hospitality industry. After evaluating friction points in the guest journey, aligning with modern technology platforms in their restaurant was determined to be an effective way to offer elevated contactless dining experiences to their guests while also evolving their technology platforms to continue to support long-term company goals. Limelight Hotel partnered with GoTab to provide an enhanced on-demand dining experience on par with the brand’s reputation for exceptional guest service.

The Solution

Reducing Staff Touch Points Without Sacrificing Guest Experience

Guests are now able to begin a tab from their room or the property’s restaurant by scanning a QR code, texting a link to friends or family members on the ski slope to add in their orders, then meeting up together at the patio or lodge to enjoy their meal and après ski festivities without interruption. By streamlining tasks like inputting orders and processing payments, this eliminates friction for hotel staff and allows them to focus on delivering renowned guest service for a memorable experience. Since partnering with GoTab, Limelight Snowmass has consistently seen higher check averages and sales.

“We found the Point of Sale platforms we were looking at offered the guest and staff limited opportunities to further reduce touch points or improve the traditional restaurant experience. The GoTab platform enabled the guest to take an active role over the flow of their experience while simultaneously reducing touch points and further streamlining restaurant operations.”Nick Giglio, Manager of Hotel IT Operations, The Little Nell Hotel Group

According to the Limelight Hotels team, some of the other platforms that were evaluated were either missing some of the pieces they were looking for, had weak customer support models, or had little willingness to develop integrations to existing hotel platforms already in place. To that end, GoTab integrated with cloud-based platform, Infor. Together, GoTab and Infor are providing dynamic solutions to support central, efficient service across hotel amenities and deliver exceptional guest experiences.

“Previously, guests would call down to the restaurant to begin an order from their room or while they were out enjoying the ski slopes. Using GoTab, guests can now place orders from anywhere on the resort, giving them the on-demand service they want without interrupting their day. GoTab empowers us to give control to the guest, reducing touch points and streamlining overall restaurant operations, making Limelight Hotel the resort of choice for Snowmass.”Nick Giglio, Manager of Hotel IT Operations, The Little Nell Hotel Group

Since introducing GoTab, The Limelight Hotel has seen a consistent level of upsells and items sold per check resulting in additional revenue capture. They have been able to maintain service levels in their restaurants during periods when there was reduced staffing available without significantly diminishing the guest experience.
