TechSpec. IT expert Corbin Ball, a well known technology authority in the meetings industry, and James Spellos, President of “Meeting U” have joined forces with QuickMobile to publish a new venue assessment app for meeting planners and organizers.

“TechSpec” is a site-inspection checklist designed to help meeting professionals measure and gauge technology capabilities during a hotel or site inspection. The “TechSpec” app allows you to measure and compare services available in the meeting spaces, guest rooms and the lobbies of hotels and venues.

The checklist scoring has been weighted to reflect a priority of the current technology needs of meeting planners and guest and is designed to help planners compare properties for technology utilization in an easy manner. It is also hoped that hoteliers will use this guide to measure their properties as well. This project is a work in progress and future updates are expected. Feedback and suggestions are welcome at jspellos@meeting-u.com or corbin@corbinball.com

This checklist is now available as free app through the support of “QuickMobile”. Both iPhone and Android versions can be accessed here: http://www.quickmobile.com/techspec
