Christian Brothers Automotive & Marriott Marquis Houston: Seamless event collaboration with Cvent Event Diagramming and Cvent Passkey

Christian Brothers Automotive (CBA), a nationally franchised automotive repair company, oversees a variety of events ranging from single-day meetings to multi-day trainings and large-scale conferences. These events are critical to relationship building and education for the entire brand family.

CBA originally struggled with disparate systems and lengthy back-and-forth communication that impacted the success of their programs. Their reliance on a third-party vendor for housing management was inefficient, causing delays and mismatched registration and housing lists. "Room block utilization and reporting was essentially non-existent," explains Katy Baronitis, Events Manager. The lack of integrated systems resulted in frustration, inefficiencies, and a lack of comprehensive data to assess program impact.
