BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Command Alkon, the Leading Supplier Collaboration Platform for Construction’s Heavy Work, is pleased to announce that their annual ELEVATE Conference was well-attended and left attendees with key insights on emerging trends and disruptive technologies, and how to adapt to these new innovations to make smarter decisions faster, achieve break-through performance, and deliver truly differentiated experiences across the community.
“Per its name, this year’s Conference did just that – it ELEVATED attendee experience and industry enrichment to new levels,” said Phil Ramsey, CEO of Command Alkon. “The world of collaboration is experiencing transformation at every level; new players, technologies, and ways of thinking – and Command Alkon is truly grateful to be at the forefront of this conversation.”
Keynote Presentations:
A hot topic of the Conference was CONNEX – The Supplier Collaboration Platform for Construction’s Heavy Work. The CONNEX Platform allows businesses within the heavy construction industry to harness problem-solving energies and gain insights into every aspect of their supply chain. The platform empowers companies to simplify data and analytics across their trading partners and streamline operations for greater efficiency and productivity.
Early adopter of the CONNEX Platform, Ryan Bartholomew of Lauren Concrete, took the stage with Ed Broach of Alamo Cement Company and shared their same vision of how CONNEX provides real-time visibility across their transactions to boost productivity and enable digital collaboration among one another.
Nearly fifty companies exhibited and sponsored the conference, and over 40 companies were recognized during the annual ELEVATE Awards Ceremony, which highlights industry excellence and exceptional individual performance.
There was something for everyone at ELEVATE 2019 – including “PowerTalk” sessions organized into five distinct growth and success tracks, panels that addressed industry issues, Solution Labs with Command Alkon experts, extra training with TRAININGDAYS Extended sessions, and interactive “Innovation Zones” where attendees could choose across first-rate technology demonstrations and discussions.
The location of next year’s ELEVATE – Construction’s Heavy Work Conference & Expo, was announced at the end of the opening keynote. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in sunny Hollywood, Florida will house the 2020 premier event. More details will be rolling out in the months to come.
