It all started in 1969 in San Diego . Computers were becoming a reality. It seemed the possibilities were endless. Could you have a computer process all of the accounting functions? Yes, one fellow had a vision that it could be done. So in the next three years he put a team together and started a consulting company called Profit Systems Plus rooted in the Irvine area of Southern California.

Their first consulting contract was with the Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach. In 1974 they had software that would run their apartments, hotel, restaurants, marina, tennis club and shop facilities with one totally integrated system. It did accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, general ledger, reservations and point of sale eliminating half of the accounting staff and providing management with real-time daily operating results.

In the next few years they landed contracts like the Marina City Club in Marina Del Rey, CA, and the Maksoud Plaza Hotel, Sao Palo, Brazil. After a huge write up on a unique multiple restaurant installation at the South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, CA, they incorporated in the name of Executive System Plus.

In 1979, a restaurant portion of this package was introduced to the market that began the evolution for point of sale companies in the 80’s. Over the next twenty years, ESP installed over 1,150 modules for hotels, clubs, marinas, time shares and many of the top restaurants in the United States.

In 1999, the gentleman who many consider one of the father's of the industry after 30 years chose to retire to his first love, music due to the constraints of the 21st century. Fortunately, there was too many who refused to let the system go. One such person, James Schmidt of The Rattlesnake Club in Detroit persuaded him to bring the system into the 21st century, now as the amazing AccountAtron.
