Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise has signed a master licence agreement with Bally Technologies for Bally systems solutions following a thorough evaluation of all qualified system vendors.

The Navajo Nation chose Bally’s iVIEW Display Manager and Elite Bonusing Suite to add excitement across the casino floor through a picture-in-picture-style player user interface that enables powerful interactive bonusing events on the gaming devices without interrupting slot play.

Implementation, which includes replacement of a competitor’s system at two of the properties, will occur across the Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise’s casinos in the south-western US, starting with Flowing Water Navajo Casino, Northern Edge Navajo Casino and Fire Rock Casino. The Navajo’s flagship property, Twin Arrows Navajo Hotel and Casino Resort, currently under construction in Flagstaff, Arizona, is projected to open in the spring of 2013.

“We are dedicated to growing our enterprise for the good of the Navajo people and, as such, we needed a systems partner who shared the same commitment and had the core technology solutions to enable us to evolve our operation,” said Derrick Watchman, chief financial officer of the Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise. “Bally’s commitment to systems is undisputed and they have invested in technology that will enable us to take our player loyalty programmes to the next level.”
