DENVER, CO – September 2, 2026 -Graebel Companies, Inc., a global leader in workforce mobility and managed services (“Graebel“), and Reside Worldwide Inc., a leading provider of short and extended stay accommodations (“Reside“), today announced they have combined under common ownership to create a more connected approach to workforce enablement.
Together, the companies are creating the foundation for a new model that helps organizations simplify complexity, improve employee experiences, and support talent more effectively. This is enabled by ongoing support of the combined businesses from Westbridge Capital Ltd., one of Canada’s leading private equity firms (“Westbridge“), coupled with the Graebel family’s continued investment.
As employee journeys become more dynamic and complex, organizations are evolving how they support their people, but the systems, providers and technologies supporting those experiences remain fragmented. Together, Graebel and Reside bring complementary strengths that will change the way moves are managed for companies and their employees, better reflecting today’s workforce and workplace.
“Where people live has such an impact on their work experience and success, whether it’s for a longer-term relocation or temporary deployment for a short-term project,” said Ron Dunlap, who will serve as CEO of the combined companies. “Bringing Graebel and Reside together allows us to play a more meaningful role in the employee journey while extending the value we create for clients. It’s an important step toward simplifying complexity, reducing friction and helping organizations better support their people.”
Clients can expect a sustained commitment to service excellence, relationship continuity and delivery against existing commitments, including the teams and contacts they work with today. Over time, they will also benefit from a more connected ecosystem that reduces fragmentation, strengthens coordination across the employee journey, and delivers long-term value while preserving supplier neutrality, choice and flexibility.
“Bringing Reside’s 3Sixty corporate housing marketplace platform together with Graebel’s technology and service platform will simplify a critical part of the employee journey, helping people settle in and succeed more quickly,” said Lee Curtis, co-founder of Reside. “This brings us closer to delivering the seamless, end-to-end experience employees increasingly expect.”
Westbridge will support continued innovation and help expand the value proposition beyond traditional relocation, helping organizations better support people wherever work happens. Together, Reside and Graebel are creating a foundation for the next phase of growth and a more integrated approach to supporting organizations and their employees.
“Graebel has a unique vision for the future of managed moves and is leading the industry into a place of more connected support for companies and people, beyond traditional mobility,” said Mike Meekins, Westbridge’s President and CEO. “We’re looking forward to enabling that vision and to supporting this combination as the first step on that path, with additional opportunities on the horizon to reduce friction and improve experiences across the employee journey.”
“Transformation is in Graebel’s DNA and we’ve always sought change that will benefit our clients, their employees and the industry,” said Bill Graebel. “Our family is supportive of this continued evolution of the company and we’re looking forward to working with Graebel leadership, Reside and Westbridge to realize this vision.”
Graebel and Reside will both continue as operating entities. Ron Dunlap will serve as CEO of the combined companies, with Lee Curtis joining the leadership team. The integration process is already underway, with an emphasis on continuity and a continued commitment to client and employee experiences.
Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. acted as exclusive financial advisor and sole arranger of financing to Westbridge and Reside in connection with the transaction, while K&L Gates LLP acted as legal counsel. Baird acted as exclusive financial advisor to Graebel, while Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP acted as legal counsel.

New proprietary AI tool benchmarks supplier pricing in real time to help corporations manage market volatility and control extended stay costs
Seattle, WA, March 19, 2026— As corporations deploy employees, project teams, and mobile workforces across global markets, pricing for extended stay accommodations can shift rapidly due to changes in supply, demand, and local availability. These fluctuations can make it difficult for travel, procurement, and mobility teams to ensure they are receiving fair and competitive rates.
To address this challenge, 3Sixty has introduced its Marketplace Intelligence Tool, a proprietary AI-driven enhancement to its cloud-based bidding platform designed to bring greater transparency and cost control to extended stay sourcing.
When housing providers submit quotes through the 3Sixty platform, the Marketplace Intelligence Tool automatically benchmarks proposed rates against recent, localized market data, including recently won and shortlisted bids for comparable properties in the same area.
If a supplier attempts to submit a rate that is five percent or more above the true market average, the system instantly flags the anomaly before submission. The supplier receives a real-time alert encouraging pricing adjustments before finalizing the bid. This automated guardrail helps prevent inflated pricing and reduces the need for extended negotiation.
“We are not waiting for inflated rates to reach our clients. We are preventing them,” said Robyn Joliat, President of 3Sixty. “AI allows us to shift cost control upstream and give our clients real-time intelligence that brings discipline and transparency to extended stay pricing.”
“Extended stay pricing has traditionally been reactive,” Joliat added. “We believe it should be predictive. Our Marketplace Intelligence Tool helps clients understand pricing dynamics in real time and make better sourcing decisions with greater confidence.”
“The Marketplace Intelligence Tool gives us confidence in how rates are being managed across the marketplace,” said Kathy Momberger, CRP, Vice President, Global Supplier Development, Graebel Companies, Inc. “The transparency 3Sixty provides allows us to clearly demonstrate how rates are benchmarked and where cost savings are being achieved for both our organization and the clients we serve.”
The introduction of the Marketplace Intelligence Tool reflects 3Sixty’s continued investment in bringing data, transparency, and marketplace discipline to extended stay sourcing.
The new capability builds on 3Sixty’s global platform, which provides access to more than three million curated properties across 60 countries and serves over 200 Fortune 500 clients. Each property is supported by financial vetting and neighborhood safety insights, delivering confidence for procurement teams and travelers during long-term stays.
By combining AI-driven benchmarking with marketplace transparency, 3Sixty is helping corporations manage extended stay accommodations as a strategic category within modern travel programs, delivering greater cost control and market visibility.
3Sixty is a state-of-the-art marketplace that reduces the noise in extended-stay travel. The result is a consistent, quality experience that creates an expectation: if you book a 3Sixty stay for your employee, you know they’ll feel at home. The 3Sixty team has spent more than 30 years building the industry’s most robust network of over 3.4 million globally compliant accommodations in 60 countries. 3Sixty’s flexible bid feature increases compliance and control while delivering choice, flexibility, and optimized spend. With a mix of machine learning and human expertise, the marketplace aggregates and curates suitable housing for clients and their employees. Learn more at moveto.stay3sixty.com
