(Austria).- DRGT announced that the Austrian subsidiary in Graz – the original Systems in Progress (SiP) – has been renamed to DRGT Systems. This company name change underlines the complete integration of SiP into DRGT – and that all within the space of twelve months.

Indeed, the past 12 months have been extraordinarily successful for DRGT. This began with the purchase of SiP from WMS last summer. The Austrian colleagues have truly benefited from this integration into DRGT as the company growth expanded so quickly that DRGT Systems is now based in new offices in Graz.

Furthermore, DRGT set up a completely new subsidiary in Lima, Peru, during this time and has a team of over ten extremely competent staff to support the market there where DRGT plays a major role in slot machine networking and accounting systems. These Latin American headquarters provide DRGT with the ideal location to support the entire Latin American gaming market.

Today over fifty people work for DRGT in three different countries. Key staff who have joined DRGT in the past twelve months include Georg Steiner (Senior Business Development Director) and Joost van Egeraat (Sales Director). The employee number is set to continue to rise. This increase is reflected in the figures: Within the last twelve months DRGT has grown its installed systems base internationally from 8,000 to over 20,000.

The unique benefits that DRGT is bringing to the systems market are being welcomed around the globe. Today operators can target individual players with individual advertising and marketing messages whenever they want to. Thus, these messages can change every time a different player logs in on the gaming machine. Such flexibility and direct marketing allows operators to simply implement their own messages – with proven results.

The new requirements for connecting all slots to a system in Peru have enabled the Peruvian market to implement the latest and most innovative systems solutions. Here DRGT is playing a central role with well over 50 casinos signed up.

DRGT systems are serverless and work on all slots – no matter the age or manufacturer. These user-friendly, cost-effective solutions are changing the way operators view systems – from a complicated necessity to a simple-to-use tool that brings true added value. Thus, any gaming operator can make use of these benefits – from the smallest to the largest.  DrScreen places such messages directly on the slot screen.

The systems solutions of DRGT are modular. This means that operators can invest in the sections they need when they want or need to. Typically the networking requirement for accounting purposes grows to bonusing, cashless, ticketing, player tracking, individual jackpots and then wide-area jackpot systems. Operators choose what they require in their own time and this is added to the installed DRGT systems. Exciting news for existing customers: All the installed DRGT and SiP systems are being integrated to the new version – thus existing customers have the same benefits as new customers.
Jurgen De Munck, CEO and co-founder of DRGT, explains, “It just goes to show what is possible when a company brings true innovation that offers real player and operator added value. We are seeing that operators are changing their mindset – systems are now a great tool and not just a necessity. Our serverless systems work on all slots and bring simplicity to such a complicated part of the gaming industry”.

De Munck concludes, “The renaming of SiP to DRGT Systems GmbH sends out a strong message – that within twelve months we have completely integrated both systems solutions into one. We are one single company with one set of systems solutions. We have a solid base and offer unique benefits to the market”.
