RMS has become the first accommodation technology company to achieve US Department of Defence IL4 certification for its Property Management System.

The RMS Property Management System is the only PMS approved for use by US Government agencies which must deal with US Department of Defence IL4 certified technology suppliers – giving RMS a significant first-mover advantage. 

RMS founder Peter Buttigieg says it took more than a year to win US Department of Defence IL4 certification.

“Protecting the data and privacy of our users has always been central to RMS and we’ve really stepped up our security since moving to a cloud-based operating environment, which is guarded by extremely robust firewalls and other security measures,” Buttigieg says.

He adds, “US Department of Defence IL4 certification is a resounding success for our military-grade security protocols and measures at a time when privacy has emerged as a major concern for all technology users.

He says the RMS system includes an advanced property and accommodation management solution with flexible screen layouts ideally suited for the Defence industry. It’s able to handle scenarios unique to Defence needs. 

“It also opens up opportunities for us to work with US Federal Agencies."

Meanwhile, Buttigieg says the RMS Property Management system has been implemented across 19 accommodation and recreational locations across the United States, Hawaii and Japan.

“We are honoured to have been chosen to work with such a revered organisation on this project.” 

“We’re excited to bring a fully functional US Department of Defence IL4 certified property management system that will improve the guest experience for military personnel and family”.
