The Dealer Advisory Council

“Today, mobile workforce automation
systems and services are being integrated into almost every
critical business process, so we formed this council to keep
our company in lock-step with the evolving needs of office
equipment providers and their customers,” said
Michael Stramaglio, President and CEO of MWAi. “Our
primary objective is to align MWAi’s
emerging technology and expanding suite of services with the
day-to-day needs of those who manufacture, sell, support and/or
utilize copiers, printers, MFPs and associated products.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity
not only to see the future enhancements of MWA Intelligence,
but even more importantly, to be a part of the development
of those enhancements through the input with a diverse group
of dealers from around the country.” said
