As the single point of accountability for the project to ITT Sheraton, Tandem will be responsible for all deliverables worldwide and on a country-by-country basis. Tandem will be working with Sheraton.Net to architect system support and infrastructure requirements. All major solution components and services for this project are being leased through Tandem's innovative Continuous Care Lifecycle Services program. In addition, Sheraton.Net has selected Tandem to provide high availability Windows NT systems from Compaq and Tandem as the central servers for each hotel. Jerry Peterson, Tandem Senior Vice President, said, "Sheraton.Net promises to set a new standard of service for hotel travelers where a mint on the pillow is no longer enough. ITT Sheraton's guests expect continuous service every minute of the day. Tandem has been implementing and managing such environments for 23 years."
