ALPINE'S CANADA SOFTWARE PACKAGE FOR TRUSS CONSTRUCTION
NOW SPECIFIES SIMPSON STRONG-TIE CONNECTORS
VERNON HILLS, Ill., March 11, 2015 – With the March update of Alpine's IntelliVIEW 15.01
software platform for truss builders, Alpine's Canadian customers are now able to automatically
specify Simpson Strong-Tie framing hardware for their job.
The automated specification of Simpson Strong-Tie products has been available to Alpine's
U.S. customers for several years. With this software update, that capability is now being
expanded to Canada.
"We are constantly seeking new ways to add value and increase productivity for our customers,"
said Jeff Allan, Alpine's national sales manager for Canada. "Giving customers additional
product options by renewing the working relationship between Alpine and Simpson Strong-Tie
accomplishes this objective very effectively."
"This is a win for Alpine, a win for Alpine customers and a win for Simpson Strong-Tie," said
Mike Petrovic, Simpson Strong-Tie Canada general manager. "This new capability makes it
easier for our mutual customers to use Alpine software to specify our framing hardware. We
have had a strong working relationship with Alpine for many years, and are happy to have found
a mutually beneficial way to work together again in Canada."
