Orlando, Florida June 5, 2006

IntelEvent, the leading supplier of software
in the Event Resource and Supply Industry, announced the
signing and completion of implementation of its IntelEvent
Express software at Strong Audiovisual, Inc. dba/Strong
Communications of Orlando, Florida.
Strong Communications was
established in Orlando, Florida in 1998 as a full service
professional audiovisual dealer representing many major
manufacturers of audiovisual products to business and
industry, medical, government, educational and religious
clients. Strong provides expertise in equipment rental, show
services, equipment sales, equipment installation and
engineering design services.
Strong Communications works
out of a 17,000 square foot head quarter facility in Orlando.
Their 10,000 square foot Fort Lauderdale facility houses its
South Florida staff and major staging equipment. Its
successful Tampa operation is also growing rapidly.
Thomas Wilmers, President
& CEO of Strong Communications said, “We had been running
another software program since we started. It was a DOS based
system and was supported by one person in each of our
locations. The system could not keep pace with our rapid
growth. Our continued growth of personnel, events and
inventory needed a complete solution.”
“We were looking for a
STRONG Software partner, pun intended”, added Wilmers. “Our
goals were pretty simple; we wanted a system that would meet
our immediate needs and also be robust to manage future
expansion. We needed a company that we could count on for
long-term service and support, and most importantly, one that
would work to meet our company specific requirements. Our
decision didn’t happen overnight. We had the opportunity to
see IntelEvent grow up to become the software leader in our
industry and through our discussions over many, many years, we
selected Don’s team of professionals to help Strong grow to
new levels.”
Bob Huskey, Regional
Manager of Strong Communications added, “I personally know a
number of companies who have successfully implemented
IntelEvent, and have seen the benefits that IntelEvent has to
offer these companies. We made a great decision selecting
IntelEvent.”
Don Romeka, CEO of
IntelEvent added, “IntelEvent has been focused on earning
Strong’s partnership since InfoComm 1998. Since that time we
have successfully converted a great number of other companies
that had been running the same DOS based system and other
similar legacy type systems. I think it is quite gratifying to
announce that Strong not only decided to invest in IntelEvent,
but they are completely live on the software, running multiple
offices consisting of over 20 simultaneous users of the
software. This effort was a team effort between IntelEvent’s
dedicated support and implementation team, and Strong’s key super users, Bob
Huskey and Amy Martin.”
