There’s a lot that goes into running a building well. From maintenance and finance to legal compliance and communication—it’s not a solo job. And that’s where having a strong network of professionals makes all the difference.
This year’s Smart Strata Seminar Series reminded us just how important those relationships are. While the presentations were valuable, it was the people behind the stands—consultants, engineers, legal teams, and service providers—that really stood out.
The team at ABCM recently shared a post that takes a closer look at the exhibitors they partnered with during the seminar. And what makes it worth reading is the focus on why these partners matter—not just what they offer.
Trusted Support Doesn’t Happen Overnight
Strata managers and committee members know that getting the right advice isn’t always easy. There are a lot of options out there—and not all of them are reliable. One provider might offer quick response times, while another might specialise in complex building issues. The trick is knowing which one suits your property—and your people.
That’s why it’s helpful when experienced teams like ABCM share their insights. In their recent blog, they walk through the partners they’ve chosen to work with at the Smart Strata Seminar. Each one brings something practical to the table—whether it’s legal knowledge, construction experience, or a more efficient way to manage property data.
It’s the kind of quiet, behind-the-scenes information you usually only get after years in the industry.
The Value of Meeting People Face to Face
One thing that stood out about the seminar was how much you can learn just by having a conversation. Speaking to exhibitors directly—asking them about real-world scenarios, seeing how they think, how they explain things—can tell you more than any brochure ever will.
The ABCM team clearly used this opportunity to strengthen existing relationships and explore new ones. Their blog offers a snapshot of those conversations, which can be incredibly helpful for anyone who didn’t attend but still wants to know who’s who in the strata space.

Why This Matters for Strata Communities
When buildings run well, residents often don’t notice the work going on behind the scenes—and that’s a good thing. But when something breaks down—communication, legal compliance, repairs—it becomes obvious fast.
Having the right team behind your building doesn’t just solve problems, it helps prevent them from becoming bigger in the first place. Whether you’re self-managing or working with a strata firm, knowing who they trust to deliver reliable service can help you make better decisions too.
This blog gives you a look into the choices ABCM has made, and the thought process behind those partnerships. It’s not marketing fluff—it’s practical insight, grounded in day-to-day experience.
Final Thought
Whether you’re managing five lots or fifty, having the right people on your side can make the job a lot smoother. ABCM’s article on their Smart Strata Seminar exhibitors is worth a read if you’re looking to understand who’s doing meaningful work in the strata industry—and why those connections matter.
