The owners and operators of Playcenter contracted ITPS to conduct a feasibility analysis with regard to moving portions of the existing Playcenter to a new location outside the city. Additional plans for this location, known as Hopi Hari, include a major wooden roller coaster, a shuttle loop coaster, a river rapids ride, a waterpark, hotels, restaurants and retail shopping.

Using the historical operations at the existing Playcenter, as well as the new supportable market, ITPS provided attendance and financial projections for Hopi Hari. In addition, ITPS provided all design and master planning services for the new Hopi Hari, including site plans and concept renderings. ITPS oversaw the construction and ride installation at the new site through the on-site placement of an ITPS Vice President. ITPS also provided on-site management services during the opening of the park.

The Republica de los Ninos is a well known park that has been operating as a cultural and historical facility for the children of Argentina for many years. ITPS was asked to conduct a financial feasibility for the existing park, as well as to recommend a concept for the facility so that it would appeal to everyone - children, adults and families.

ITPS' goal was to compliment the existing facility, while at the same time creating a true themed attraction environment, thus offering high quality entertainment value. Attendance and financial projections were provided, as well as a new concept for the new park.

ITPS worked with ESTA S.A. Terra Encantada in Brazil. The 45 acre theme park opened in January 1998. With this development, the Rio de Janeiro market was introduced to a more sophisticated level of entertainment, rides, and attractions, including steel roller coasters and the latest water rides. The park's state-of-the-art attractions are based on aspects of Brazilian culture and history, narrating the country's origin, nature and folklore.

As part of the pre-opening operations planning, ITPS conducted an extensive management training program on-site. This program introduced the managers and supervisors of the project to basic theme park operations. ITPS training team members returned to Rio prior to park opening to conduct training for all line personnel in both general and specific areas of park operations. This training provided the park's line personnel with the knowledge they needed to successfully welcome their guests.

ITPS also provided full-time, on-site management during the entire pre-opening process, from the construction phase, through the establishment of park operations and into the first eight (8) months of actual daily park management.
