It contains information you will need to plan a successful exhibit of your company s products and services. Included you will find all the forms necessary to obtain exhibit related services such as electrical, telephone, booth cleaning, lead retrieval, shipping/material handling, furniture and carpet rental. The manual also contains general information such as rules and regulations as well as hotel and registration that again this year all registrations must be handled either via on-line registration at the RSSI website or on-site at the RSSI Registration Desk.

4 We are requesting that all employees of exhibiting companies pick up their own badge at registration rather than have a designated person pick up badges for a large group. This has caused confusion and delay in the past. It has also caused RSSI to print multiple badges and issue multiple lanyards to the same person. If you need to have a designated person register a group of exhibitor employees please contact the RSSI office at 904-379-336 prior to May 15, requests that no work, labor or services of any kind, including electrical, etc., be ordered without using the proper work order forms included in this manual. Genesis Exposition Services has been selected by RSSI as the official service contractor for the 2018 RSSI C&S Exhibition. Additional forms can be obtained from Genesis Exposition Services (whose address appears on each form). Please complete the appropriate forms as soon as possible in order that the many details involved in our exhibition, and your exhibit in particular, can be arranged prior to the arrival of your exhibit in Omaha , your company plans to use the services of an Exhibitor Appointed Contractor (EAC), please read the instructions regarding EAC s carefully.

5 Also be sure to return the EAC notification form, proof of insurance, and diagram (if required) by the specified date. If notification and proof of insurance are not provided, the EAC will not be permitted on the exhibit Exposition Services will have a service desk at the convention center. Additional work orders may be placed with them during the move-in period of Saturday, May 19, 2018 through Monday, May 21, 2018. We look forward to another successful exhibition and to seeing you in May.
