Offering Process and Technology Solutions to Member-Based Organizations in the Leisure, Private Club and Hospitality Industries

September 18, 2012 - Boston, MA ‐ McGladrey LLP, the nation's fifth largest provider of assurance, tax and consulting services and leading provider of full-scope technology consulting and finance and accounting services, recently announced a strategic relationship with MembersFirst®, a leading provider of end to end technology solutions and services catering to private clubs.

Under this relationship, McGladrey will become a value-added reseller (VAR) of MembersFirst Club Management™, the industry’s leading club management solution. MembersFirst Club Management™ has recently been fully integrated into the company’s core MRM™ (Member Relationship Management) platform to create a real-time, flexible and easy to use solution that will help clubs increase revenue through targeted member marketing and reduce costs through the use of a single technology partner.

As we worked with our private club clients to understand their business requirements, we recognized the opportunity to partner with MembersFirst® to jointly help them improve their club management and finance operations, said Jim Cashin, McGladrey’s national leader of Business Process Outsourcing services. We quickly realized the depth of MembersFirst® solutions combined with its development platform, configurability, and industry-specific functionality was clearly an excellent option.

We are thrilled to partner with McGladrey around our leading club management solution, said Tony Baudanza, President and CEO at MembersFirst®. This new relationship enables clients to focus on their core business by removing accounting, inventory, point-of-sale, and software integration challenges and provides an opportunity for McGladrey consultants and MembersFirst® to work collaboratively with clubs to create new business opportunities while streamlining operations.
