To
Whom It May Concern:
With pleasure, I write in full support of Georgia
Tech's Interactive Media Technology Center's future endeavors.
The Atlanta History Center
hired IMTC in 1998 to build an interactive web kiosk to accompany "Down
the Fairway with Bobby Jones," our newest permanent exhibition.
I worked with the IMTC team for over two years and can offer a unique
perspective on their professionalism.
I can say without exaggeration that IMTC is the reason for the
kiosk's success. They helped the exhibition team develop a work
plan and
delivered all that was promised on time and within the budget we
had agreed upon. In managing the project, IMTC demonstrated sensitivity
to our needs. We work with a variety of vendors and rarely end
a project without complaint. This is what makes IMTC unique.
The IMTC team was decisive, yet flexible. They presented ideas
that helped us develop a kiosk that met the learning objectives
of the
exhibition, which indicated that they had spent a great deal
of time doing the kind of preparation that such a project requires.
During
the installation, we were delayed by the construction crew. Without
complaint, the IMTC team adjusted their schedule to ensure that
we opened on time.
IMTC is energetic and inventive in developing products that are
appealing to visitors. Our interactive kiosk continues to attract
visitors.
It has a lot to offer, but is not difficult to use. Few visitors
are probably aware of how innovative the technology really
is; they focus instead on the lavish graphics and the interactivity.
We strive
at the History Center to develop interactive components in
our
exhibitions that do not require a great deal of maintenance.
We hired IMTC because
we knew from checking their references that their systems work.
IMTC maintains uncompromising standards and takes pride in
the success of each project. I expected no less from an institution
with the
prestige of Georgia Tech. I would urge you to make them part
of your team. Please feel free to contact me at (404) 814-4117,
as
I would
be happy to discuss IMTC's qualifications in greater detail.
