ARLINGTON, VA, Sep 22, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- TSG | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Plateau Systems, a leading provider of enterprise-class SaaS solutions for talent management, announced that Sabre Holdings, the world's largest travel technology company and parent company to Travelocity, Sabre Travel Network and Sabre Airline Solutions, has selected Plateau's fully integrated Talent Management Suite as the building block for its global talent management strategy. Sabre will deploy Plateau Talent Management, which includes Plateau Learning, Plateau Performance, Plateau Career & Succession, Plateau Compensation, and iContent, Plateau's award-winning solution for buying, deploying, and managing third party and custom e-learning content. Sabre's deployment of Plateau's SaaS offerings will be available to all of its 9,000 employees across 59 countries, as well as selected partners.

As a world leader in travel, Sabre Holdings touches every facet of the travel industry, providing a wide range of merchandising and retailing travel products, as well as distribution and technology solutions. The three businesses that comprise Sabre Holdings -- Travelocity, Sabre Travel Network and Sabre Airline Solutions -- serve travelers, travel agents, corporations and travel suppliers such as airlines, hotels and rail companies around the world, and are united under one clear mission: to connect people with the world's greatest travel possibilities.

"Retaining and attracting quality talent is a fundamental part of our business strategy and with more than 50 percent of our employee base now located outside of the United States, it was important to find a talent solution that could keep pace with the evolving needs of our global workforce, taking into account the different cultural and geographical challenges," said Paul Rostron, Executive Vice President, Human Resources, Sabre Holdings. "Plateau's Talent Management Suite will help us develop, reward and retain the best employees across the globe by putting multi-lingual information and resources in the hands of our employees whenever they need them, via one integrated on-demand solution that is compatible with our future-state technology platform and our commitment to personal data security."

With Sabre Holdings' selection of Plateau's integrated suite, all Sabre employees and managers will use Plateau Learning, Performance and Compensation when the suite is fully implemented over the next two years. Sabre's executives will use Plateau Succession to identify critical jobs, potential successors and skill gaps. Through iContent's unique Content-as-a-Service offering, Sabre expects to simplify content procurement and reduce the time and labor costs associated with managing and storing this content. By choosing Plateau's Talent Management Suite, Sabre also expects to lower its IT infrastructure and support costs and improve employee access with anytime, anywhere availability and reliability.

"Global organizations like Sabre recognize the organizational efficiencies and consistency that an integrated talent management suite provides," said Paul Sparta, chairman and CEO, Plateau Systems. "By linking employee learning, performance, compensation and succession planning together in a unified solution and using iContent to manage and deliver learning content, Sabre will be able to advance its strategic talent management initiatives and map those initiatives to business performance and broader corporate goals."
