Integration of EMS and FM:Interact will simplify collaboration between meeting coordinators and facility managers.

Australia/NZ and Denver, Colo. (PRWEB) February 1, 2007 -- Advanced Spatial technologies (ASt) (www.advancedspatial.com.au), a leading provider of integrated workplace management systems (IWMS), today announced that it has partnered with Dean Evans & Associates (www.dea.com) to provide Event Management System (EMS) software in the Australia/New Zealand/Asia Pacific region. While ASt will sell the EMS line of industry-leading room scheduling and hoteling solutions independently in some settings, integration with the FM:Interact Workplace Management Suite will be a key feature of many sales opportunities. This partnership will have a very positive impact on our customers and our companies EMS products are used to reserve rooms for meetings and events, secure the associated resources (equipment, catering, etc.), and book temporary office space for mobile workers (hoteling). With the integration of EMS and FM:Interact, meeting coordinators and facility managers will benefit from the sharing of data in a variety of ways, including time savings, error reduction and streamlined internal communication.

"This partnership will have a very positive impact on our customers and our companies," says Don Hitchcock, Managing Director of ASt. "Whether a client's situation calls for EMS alone or the integrated EMS/FM:Interact system, they will see increased productivity and will be able to provide their internal customers with significantly enhanced customer service. We're excited to have Dean Evans & Associates as a strategic partner."

"ASt's reputation as a trusted source for facility management solutions in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific region will be invaluable as we look to establish our company in this market," says Kevin Raasch, executive vice president for Dean Evans and Associates. "While EMS is already being used by some industry leading organizations in Australia, we want to increase awareness of our products in the region. We're looking forward to working with Advanced Spatial technologies."
