"JMARK is a strategic partner rather than a vendor. The relationship runs both ways—their expertise guides our initiatives, and our needs inform their solutions.”

The Challenge

Atrium operates a widely distributed environment across 75+ properties where every guest check-in and payment depends on local infrastructure working perfectly. With only 12 internal IT staff supporting 3,000 users, the team was stuck in a reactive cycle—resolving disruptions after they occurred rather than preventing them. As security threats increased, the team lacked the capacity to pursue the high-level data and AI initiatives leadership required. 

JMARK partnered with Atrium to assume ownership of the operational layer that required continuous, 24/7 attention. Through a co-managed model, we took responsibility for: 

Infrastructure Design & Monitoring

Proactive issue detection before it impacts the guest.

Centralized Security

Moving threat detection from individual properties to a unified, high-visibility operations center.

Endpoint & Email Defense

Implementing enterprise-grade filtering to stop threats before they reach the user.
 

The Solution

The Outcome

By stabilizing the foundation, JMARK achieved operational continuity. Downtime decreased by 15–20% across all properties, but the real victory was human: Atrium’s internal IT team was unburdened.

With the day-to-day interruptions handled by JMARK, Atrium’s team shifted their focus toward building data pipelines and supporting AI integration—contributing directly to the data and insights leadership uses to drive the business forward.
