Kewaskum, WI 鈥� May 13th, 2026 鈥� Gripp, the only two-sided platform linking agricultural manufacturers, dealers and farm operations through equipment-linked communication and human and AI-based workflows, today announced it has been named an Endorsed Service Provider by the 果冻传媒 (FEMA), one of only a handful of technology companies to receive this distinction.

The endorsement validates Gripp’s Rendezvoo platform, which invented the ERM category – Equipment Relationship Management – the world’s first solution purpose-built to manage the relationship between equipment makers, dealers and the operators who depend on that equipment every day. Using a simple QR code applied at manufacturing or service time, Rendezvoo creates a permanent communication and intelligence hub connecting OEMs, dealers and farm operators in one familiar app.

“Being recognized by FEMA is a significant milestone for Gripp and for the ERM category we have built,” said Tracey Wiedmeyer, CEO and Co-Founder of Gripp. “Manufacturers and dealers have never had a purpose-built platform for managing customer relationships around their equipment. Rendezvoo changes that, and FEMA’s endorsement signals that the industry is ready.”

For FEMA member manufacturers, the Gripp endorsement provides immediate access to a platform that strengthens customer relationships, improves communication across the supply chain, raises margins and builds more resilient businesses. From warranty triage to field campaigns to digital content delivery and direct owner communication, Rendezvoo gives OEMs and dealers tools that were previously unavailable in a single connected platform. AI-powered dashboards surface customer insights and equipment trends automatically, while agentic communication tools help manufacturers and dealers triage issues, prioritize follow-up and resolve problems faster than ever before. Long awaited capabilities like direct video and voice calls, AI-transcribed and summarized call logs and work order integration will make their way back to the industry after being removed by other providers during recent acquisitions.

鈥淲e鈥檙e incredibly excited to welcome Tracey and the entire Gripp team as an Endorsed Service Provider of FEMA. As our industry continues to evolve, partnerships with forward-thinking technology companies like Gripp are critical to the growth and future of our association and our members. Their passion, innovation, and commitment to helping manufacturers operate more efficiently make them a natural fit for FEMA. We鈥檙e looking forward to building something meaningful together and creating long-term value for our membership.鈥� 鈥� Joe Sampson, EVP, 果冻传媒
