APPOINTING AN EAC
Exhibitors are now able to designate EACs through ConnectionPOINT. Simply Sign-In using your e-code (password) and follow the steps below.

ACCESSING EAC DESIGNATION
Once you are signed into ConnectionPOINT click on the EXHIBITOR AUTHORIZED CONTRACTOR link under the SHOW DETAILS section, located in the top-center of your screen. Click the MANAGE EACs button - the EAC designation program will open a new window. The entire EAC process is a total of 3 Steps - see below:

STEP 1: DESIGNATING YOUR EAC COMPANY

Look up an EAC already in the Hanley Wood system by typing the company name in the box (partial company names may pull more results IE: Acme vs The Acme Company). If you find your EAC from the select group of auto-populated companies, simply select the company name and click the NEXT button. If your EAC is not already in the system you may add them by selecting the CLICK HERE TO ADD THEM TO OUR SYSTEM link. This will populate the new company name into the box. Click the NEXT button to proceed.
(To avoid duplicates please be sure to check if your EAC is already in the system before adding a new one.)

STEP 2: DESIGNATING YOUR EAC CONTACT

Step 2 involves assigning a contact to the EAC company you've just designated. You can find a contact that already exists by typing their first or last name in the box. Again, if you find your contact from the select group of auto-populated contacts, simply select the correct person and click the NEXT button. If your contact is not already in the system you can add them by selecting the CLICK HERE TO ADD THEM TO OUR SYSTEM link. This will populate your contact’s name into box. Click the NEXT button to proceed.
(To avoid duplicates please be sure to check if your EAC contact is already in the system before adding a new one.)

Step 3: CONFIRM & COMPLETE

Step 3 allows you to confirm the EAC Company and Contact information you've entered is correct. If you would like to remove either the company or the contact, simply click the red X next to the appropriate field. If both the company and contact are correct, please select all types of work your EAC will perform onsite.

Confirm that the information you've entered is correct by selecting the confirmation box, enter your online signature and select the SUBMIT button.

Your portion of the process is Complete.
The next time you sign into ConnectionPOINT you will see your EAC listed under the Exhibitor Appointed Contractor section of your Show Details.

Once you have selected your EAC and your contact and submitted the designation an email will be sent to your EAC contact indicating that they have been designated. The email will include a link and password where they can sign into the EAC portion of our website. From here your EAC can accept or decline the designation. On your home page, your Exhibitor Appointed Contractor status will show as Pending until your EAC has accepted the designation, paid any necessary fees and provided the required insurance certificate.
