| IntelliEvent and Mertzcrew Announce New Software Integration To Drive Cost Savings, Efficiency, And Improved Labor Administration For Leading AV & Live Event Companies |
“This integration will empower our mutual clients to achieve stronger financial performance while reducing business risks in the management of live event AV freelancers,” said Don Romeka, founder and CEO of IntelliEvent. “For over 25 years, IntelliEvent has served AV clients by streamlining time-consuming processes for greater efficiency, cost reductions, and increased service levels. This integration with Mertzcrew builds on that tradition by extending our efficient business planning into better labor execution for our client’s projects.”
“Successful AV companies have shifted their operational strategy to a leaner staffing model, utilizing a core team of company employees supported by a network of experienced and talented freelancers,” said Joe Mertz, founder and CEO of Mertzcrew. “This integration builds on both our company’s culture of world-class service by putting the needs of our clients and freelancers first so that both groups enjoy a higher quality and more effective labor experience.”
“Clients will love the ability to incorporate Mertzcrew’s efficient freelance compliance solution directly within IntelliEvent,” said Andrew Ehler, Chief Revenue Officer of IntelliEvent. “Once a client has activated the integration between our two services, they can execute the entire labor process from within IntelliEvent. This will deliver efficiency gains beyond the Operations team with an improved process and cost savings for HR and accounting. It will even integrate with our upcoming enhanced labor planning module for a complete experience, all within IntelliEvent!”
“For over 22 years, Mertzcrew has delivered efficient compliance of live event freelancers and show technicians so they can focus on their craft”, said Gabe Solomon, President of Mertzcrew. “We have invested in developing a reputation for excellent customer service. We are proud to partner with a company that places an equally high emphasis on service and trust for those that we mutually serve.”
Interested AV companies can contact their respective company representatives for an invitation to the early access integration with an anticipated release in the second half of 2023.
