ENCODEC
Encodec is a proud CET implementation partner. Our mission is to help Configura revolutionize product specification, one industry at a time. To accomplish this, our strategy is to connect talent with knowledge. We invest heavily in tooling and training to get your products there fast.
KONVERGENT SOLUTIONS
In the Pacific Northwest there is a phenomenon called a convergence zone. This is created when two separate storm systems collide. In this zone the weather becomes unstable. When making the transition to CET, turbulent situations can occur as different software collide. Konvergent Solutions helps to ease the transition by personally assisting furniture dealers and manufacturers with the correct tools necessary to help them work more effectively and efficiently. By giving designers the correct tools earlier in the process, this allows them to be more creative and gives them an advantage during and after transition.
NORRLAB
At NorrLab, we work closely with manufacturers to make sure that their CET Extension is in line with their sales process. We deliver full scale CET implementation projects and help our customers with development, project management and design of their Extension. Together we deliver a new way for our customers to act faster, eliminate manual steps and mistakes and win more bids.

She’s worked with Configura since 2008 to help build awareness of the company’s solutions to global audiences.

TECHBOX COLLECTIVE
Specification tools, electronic catalogs, and product configurators are just a few examples of the e-tools users want and manufacturers are investing in. Techbox Collective is a dedicated platform for discussion and education about commercial interiors e-tools. No matter your experience level with e-tools, the community provides a space to ask, learn, and share information. The open lobby is for shared conversations between manufacturers, developers, dealer designers, and subject matter experts. Dedicated channels provide groups the attention to coach through specific topics and provide actionable resources to assist through the journey.

THE DESIGN POP
Every organization has limited resources. Small dealers may not have the training budget that larger ones do. Some manufacturers offer training, webinars, or other services to aid our industry, while many others don’t offer anything. Either way, contract designers need training, best practices, and a community of knowledgeable individuals to be successful. The Design POP was created as a platform to serve, educate, and inspire the entire POPulation of contract furniture designers.
