Penton
Media Selects CompuSystems & onPeak as Exclusive Registration &
Housing Partners
Chicago,
IL � September 2010 � Penton Media, Inc.
has proudly selected CompuSystems,
Inc. (CSI) as their premier registration vendor, and onPeak as their
official housing partner. This selection is part of a multi-year contract,
which will funnel all Penton shows, including those produced both in their
Penton Media and New Hope Natural Media offices, exclusively to CSI and
onPeak.
�To
leverage our best buying power and streamline our organization, it only
made sense to have an exclusive partner for registration and another for
housing to handle our entire portfolio,� explained Alan Peterson, President,
Exhibitions of Penton Media. �The technology of both CSI and onPeak is
clearly the best in the business for their respective specialties.�
Because
Penton has worked with both CSI and onPeak for years, it was easy for them
to see the strides each company has made regarding technology and integration.
The advancements in collaboration between CSI and onPeak made the choice
to award vendor exclusivity easy.
The
expanded integration of CSI�s registration software and onPeak�s COMPASS
Reservation System® enables data sharing between the event registration
and housing processes so that users are only prompted to enter their information
once. The result is a singular, combined event confirmation and heightened
convenience for show organizers and participants every step of the way.
What sets this apart from other companies� registration and housing integration
is that users not only receive singular, combined confirmations, but they
can also view their hotel and travel information on the registration website
while seamlessly moving back and forth between registration and housing
to view and edit their record�a fully-integrated experience.
CSI
and onPeak have successfully worked together in the past on shows such
as Penton�s The Special Event. This new contract for 2011-2015 will only
further strengthen the industry bond between CSI and onPeak.
�CSI
and onPeak work exceptionally well together because of our common dedication
to heightened customer service,� said Michael Howe, President & CFO
of onPeak. �It�s a great foundation for the new and enticing ways we get
delegates to fill the event hotel blocks.�
CSI
and onPeak are currently slated to handle all Penton and New Hope Natural
Media shows including WasteExpo, Electric West, Club Industry, Club Industry
East, Coal Prep, LDI and The Special Event. The new contract also includes
Natural Products Expo West / SupplyExpo, Natural Products Expo East / Organic
Products Expo and Natural Market Place NutraCostmetics.
�CSI
is excited to work with such a distinguished show organizer,� said Chris
Williams, Senior Vice President of CSI. �We are committed to providing
Penton with superior service and technological innovation, and continuing
our incredible partnership with onPeak.�
