Built on the QCI AGI Platform, QCI Resorts provides a single operational system encompassing hotel management, food and beverage, point-of-sale, marketing, player development, loyalty, analytics, enterprise intelligence, and integrated gaming systems. Operating from a single real-time software stack, the platform enables teams across the property to operate the entire business through a unified intelligence layer. The deployment supports Sky City Acoma Casino Hotel's commitment to operational excellence while establishing a foundation for AI-assisted decision-making across the entire enterprise. “From both an operational and financial perspective, the ability to securely operationalize AI within the casino environment represents one of the most significant technology advancements we have seen in years,” said Dennis Amos, CFO of Sky City Acoma Casino Hotel. “QCI Resorts provides a practical path toward AI-assisted resort operations while maintaining the governance, security, and operational controls required in gaming. The platform’s ability to deliver actionable intelligence through natural language interaction is particularly compelling.” Sky City Acoma Casino Hotel joins a growing group of forward-thinking operators moving beyond the fragmented technology architecture that has defined the industry for decades. As resort operations become increasingly complex, operators are recognizing that the future will not be built on more integrations, more data warehouses, and more disconnected applications. It will be built on a single unified operational system. “For decades, the hospitality industry has pursued the vision of a unified platform through integration,” said Andrew Cardno, Co-Founder and CTO of QCI. “QCI Resorts represents a fundamentally different approach. It is not an integration platform for resort systems. It is the system. Hospitality, food and beverage, marketing, loyalty, operations, and intelligence operate from a single real-time software stack and a common intelligence layer. Gaming remains integrated where regulations require it, but the resort itself operates as one unified system. We're excited to partner with Sky City Acoma Casino Hotel as they help define the future of resort operations.” The deployment reflects growing recognition throughout the gaming industry that the future belongs to a single unified operational system that redefines how a resort runs. “Resorts are approaching the same inflection point that transformed other industries,” added Cardno. “The future will belong to operators running on unified intelligence systems, not collections of disconnected software. Sky City Acoma is helping define what that future looks like.” ABOUT SKY CITY ACOMA CASINO HOTEL Acoma Business Enterprises (ABE), owned and operated by the Pueblo of Acoma, operates Sky City Casino Hotel located in central New Mexico.
