(December 2, 2010)—RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), and Michaels Military Housing today announced that the Army post at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan., has completed its transition to RealPage’s OneSite Military Housing, marking the third Michaels Military installation since September to introduce RealPage’s comprehensive software and technology services.
“We chose RealPage because it offers a highly intuitive product with features available nowhere else in the industry,” said Ron Hansen, president of Michaels Military Housing, a unique leader in military housing privatization known for its best-in-class communities and award-winning resident services program.
“The reporting, product support, training and innovation from RealPage make its products a great fit for our needs as a privatized military housing provider. We look forward to expanding our relationship with RealPage as our business continues to grow and evolve,” said Hansen.
“The process of converting three military installations to OneSite Military Housing in a short period of time has run smoothly, thanks to the RealPage team and its work with the local staff at each installation,” said Heather Plummer, Michaels Military’s vice president of community management.
The oldest operational Army post west of the Mississippi and home of the Command and General Staff College, Ft. Leavenworth offers more than 1,500 homes on the base for assigned personnel and their families. The post transition follows deployments of OneSite Military Housing at two other installations managed by Michaels Military, Ft. Huachuca and the Yuma Proving Grounds, both in Arizona.
OneSite Military Housing enables privatized housing partners to manage prospects, handle resident needs, and efficiently report performance at all levels of the organization. RealPage has worked with companies serving all three major branches of the service—the Army, Air Force and Navy—to ensure that its software products meet the unique needs of each service.
