Germantown, MD – February 24, 2009 -- Convention Strategy, a leading provider of Registration, Lead Retrieval and Attendance Tracking solutions to the conference and exposition industries, is pleased to announce a new client relationship with the Construction Financial Management Association (CFMA).  Convention Strategy will provide Registration support, RFID Lead Retrieval and Near Field RFID Session Tracking services at the 2009 Annual Conference and Exhibition, May 16-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

For more than two decades, professionals across the country have respected CFMA’s Annual Conference & Exhibition as a premier source of information concerning all aspects of construction financial management. Each spring, CFMA’s Annual Conference & Exhibition draws more than a 1,000 construction and financial professionals interested in more than 50 Sessions, 39.5 CPEs and over 80 exhibitors

"We are thrilled to support CFMA’s Annual Conference by providing our RFID attendance and lead tracking solutions,” said Robert Davis.  “The CS team is excited to add CFMA to our growing number of events for which we provide this valuable service.”

Convention Strategy's RFID Attendee Management system will be seamless for 2009 attendees. The automatic identification method provides a high level of accuracy and security over traditional barcode systems and ensures attendees get the correct credits. Each attendee will have a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag in their badge holder that will allow CFMA to track participant attendance in the continuing education classes. As attendees walk into classrooms, CS Near Field SmartTouch equipment will record individual course attendance by each attendee touching their badges to the RFID SmartTouch units.
