OFS Named Platinum Sponsor of Configura Experience 2026 in Cincinnati

by Aaron Estabrook

HUNTINGBURG, Ind., September 21, 2026 – OFS will serve as the Platinum Sponsor of Configura Experience 2026, taking place October 6-8 at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Experience is Configura’s annual user and developer conference, bringing together designers, dealers, manufacturers, developers, and technology professionals for hands-on education, peer-to-peer learning, networking, and conversations about the future of design and specification. This year’s theme, “Experience the Past. Transform the Future.”, pairs Cincinnati’s historic architecture with a program focused on the tools and ideas shaping what comes next.

For OFS, the sponsorship reflects a continued commitment to the dealer designer community and the people who turn design intent into real spaces every day.

“Dealer designers are some of the most resourceful people in our industry. They are balancing design, product knowledge, technology, timelines, and client expectations every day. Our responsibility is to keep making their work easier by removing friction, connecting workflows, and building tools that support the way they actually work. Experience allows us to share what we have been developing, but more importantly, listening and learning directly from designers using our extension is the most important thing that we can do. That is where some of our best tools have come from: listening to designers and what they need to do their jobs better, faster, and easier.”

- Steven Dunn, eTools Manager at OFS

Dunn will lead “Connecting the Dots, Less Walls, Better Doors,” a breakout session focused on recent enhancements to the OFS CET Extension, connected workflows, and upcoming capabilities designed to help users work more efficiently. The session will be offered Wednesday, October 7 from 12:30-1:25 p.m. and again Thursday, October 8 from 9:50-10:45 a.m. The session is an opportunity for experienced OFS Extension users and those newer to the platform to leave with practical ideas they can apply immediately.

“Dealer designers play an incredibly important role in our industry and in the experience we create for our customers. They sit at the intersection of creativity, product knowledge, technology, and execution. We want that community to know that we see the work they do, value their expertise, and want to continue investing in the tools, education, and relationships that help them succeed. Our partnership with Configura is an important part of that commitment.”

- Molly Menke Prior, Senior Vice President of Sales and Customer Experience at OFS

OFS will also take the main stage Wednesday morning for “Your Talent. Your Trust. Our Gratitude,” a brief sponsor address recognizing the people and partnerships that continue to strengthen the design community.
Experience 2026 runs October 6-8 at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza. The program includes workshops, keynote presentations, breakout sessions, technology previews, networking opportunities, the Configura Awards, and community events throughout Cincinnati.
