NATO’s Cinema Buying Group Selects AccessIT
The Cinema Buying Group (CBG)—a buying program of the National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO) for small and independent theatre operators—today announced the selection of Access Integrated Technologies (AccessIT) as the digital integrator for the CBG’s 600+ members in the United States and Canada.
The CBG has over 600 members representing over 8,000 screens in North America. The CBG had assured its members that it would, to the best of its ability, negotiate a deal that provides some access to digital equipment and service for all members in good standing before film ceases to be available.
The selection of AccessIT came after an extensive Request for Proposal process that initially attracted ten vendors with substantial submissions. The CBG narrowed the list of vendors to four finalists—AccessIT, Digeserv, Kodak and Technicolor—and sought additional information before making the final selection.
