Forged Sports

Forged VMS for simulator venues

Run your golf simulator venue from one operations command center.

Forged helps commercial simulator operators manage bays, staff, reservations, Engine installations, and operating insight without stitching together disconnected tools.

Forged VMS is sold through a demo and sales conversation. Public reservation payments are separate venue booking transactions.

Venue operations

Replace front-desk guesswork with operating context.

Venue teams need to know what is booked, what is active, who can act, and which bay needs attention. Forged VMS is designed around those operator questions first.

Know what every bay is doing

Surface occupancy, readiness, linked Engine state, and operational alerts before issues reach the front desk.

Keep reservations operational

Give operators a calendar-ready view of bookings, holds, arrivals, no-shows, and check-in actions.

Control staff access by context

Separate organization, venue, hardware, and operator responsibility without handing out platform-wide authority.

Bookings

Make reservations part of the operating system.

The booking path is moving into Platform-owned authority so public reservations can be reflected back into VMS without making VMS the source of truth for native booking.

Direct-bay public booking first

First release focuses on venue-controlled direct-bay reservations, booking windows, holds, confirmation, and operator calendar reflection. Stripe-backed payment collection is tracked as part of the booking rollout, not as online VMS checkout.

Insights

See utilization and operating signals before they become problems.

Forged is evolving toward analytics that help operators understand bay usage, reservation behavior, operational exceptions, and revenue trends across venues.
