Vidle Housing Introduces VidleConnect™, a Personalized Housing Solution for Healthcare Travelers and the Staffing Firms That Support Them

Published

on

New concierge-style housing search service helps staffing agencies and recruiters secure customized housing options faster for their travelers and provide an overall better placement experience—at no cost.

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Vidle Housing, the industry’s only marketplace dedicated to providing mid-term furnished housing for healthcare travelers, today announced the launch of VidleConnect™, a personalized housing solution designed to help healthcare travelers, recruiters, and staffing agencies find and secure housing more efficiently for healthcare assignments across the United States. Through VidleConnect, recruiters and staffing agencies can generate customized housing reports and requests on behalf of clinicians to help simplify the relocation process and improve the overall assignment experience. VidleConnect is available immediately and is offered at no cost to staffing agencies.

Finding suitable housing remains one of the most common challenges healthcare travelers face when preparing for a new assignment. Travel nurses, allied healthcare professionals, therapists, physicians, and other clinicians often spend hours searching multiple websites, contacting hosts, comparing locations, and verifying availability—all while preparing for a new role and relocation.

VidleConnect was created to simplify that process.

Rather than requiring travelers to search independently through hundreds of listings, VidleConnect provides a customized housing search experience for healthcare staffing firms. Once a report is generated by the healthcare staffing recruiter on behalf of their traveler, the Vidle Housing team works directly with travelers to identify housing options that best fit their assignment, commute preferences, budget, lifestyle, pet requirements, family needs, and other personal considerations.

Leveraging Vidle Housing’s growing nationwide inventory of furnished rentals and housing partners, VidleConnect delivers curated housing recommendations designed to help travelers find housing more quickly and confidently. The result is a more efficient and personalized experience that helps travelers spend less time searching and more time preparing for their next assignment, while enabling recruiters to focus on supporting their clinicians and filling open positions.

“Healthcare staffing agencies and recruiters work incredibly hard to place clinicians in assignments across the country, but housing often becomes one of the biggest barriers to a successful placement,” said Randy Holloran, Chief Executive Officer of Vidle.

“VidleConnect helps remove that barrier by providing a personalized housing search experience that supports travelers, recruiters, and staffing firms alike. When travelers can secure housing quickly and confidently, agencies can improve their overall assignment experience, reduce housing-related placement challenges, and focus on what they do best, connecting healthcare professionals with the facilities that need them. Our goal is to make housing simpler, faster, and more accessible for everyone involved in the healthcare travel journey. By offering VidleConnect as a free service, we’re removing barriers and helping travelers and staffing firms access the housing support they need when they need it.”

Supporting Recruiters and Healthcare Staffing Agencies

Housing challenges can delay assignment starts, create unnecessary stress for travelers, and in some cases contribute to assignment cancellations. VidleConnect provides recruiters with a trusted housing resource they can introduce to their candidates, helping simplify one of the most important aspects of assignment preparation.

Benefits for staffing agencies and recruiters include:

Improved traveler satisfaction and retentionReduced assignment fallout due to housing challengesFaster housing identification for travelersSupport for hard-to-fill and last-minute assignmentsLess recruiter time spent assisting with housing searchesEnhanced candidate experience throughout the placement processAccess to a dedicated housing resource backed by Vidle Housing’s nationwide network of furnished accommodations

By combining personalized housing assistance with Vidle Housing’s growing network of furnished rental inventory and housing partners nationwide, VidleConnect helps create a more seamless transition for healthcare professionals relocating for work.

As healthcare staffing firms continue to compete for top travel clinicians, the overall traveler experience has become increasingly important. Housing remains one of the most common concerns expressed by healthcare travelers when evaluating and preparing for assignments.

If you are part of a healthcare staffing agency and would like to learn more about VidleConnect and the Vidle.com/Vidle Housing community, please contact us here.

Published

By

SHANGHAI, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Shanghai Electric (SEHK: 02727, SSE: 601727) has achieved a milestone in the high-end overseas energy sector by securing the contract for Unit 3 of the Sarawak Samalaju Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) Project in Malaysia. The win represents significant international recognition of Shanghai Electric’s heavy-duty gas turbine technology, underscoring the company’s growing competitiveness in the global gas turbine market.

Under the agreement, Shanghai Electric will deliver a full EPC turnkey solution for the gas-fired power plant, coupled with a 25-year long-term service agreement (LTSA) covering all major equipment. Notably, every core component—from gas turbines and steam turbines to generators, heat recovery steam generators, and air-cooled systems—will be manufactured in-house by Shanghai Electric, which will also serve as the sole provider of the long-term maintenance and service program. This integrated, end-to-end capability gives Shanghai Electric full life-cycle coverage, spanning equipment manufacturing, systems integration, and multi-decade operational support—a vertical model that brings the company on par with the established global leaders in the heavy-duty gas turbine sector.

Shanghai Electric’s current heavy-duty gas turbine lineup features two principal models, with output ratings of 300 MW and 78 MW, respectively. To date, the company has delivered 103 units, with total installed capacity from commissioned projects exceeding 21,000 MW. The units covered by Shanghai Electric’s long-term service and maintenance programs have accumulated more than 1.3 million operating hours. With robust production capacity available across both turbine classes, Shanghai Electric is positioned to offer new units for delivery as early as 2028. Beyond the Malaysian energy developer that awarded the current contract, project developers in Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam have also expressed strong interest in placing orders.

By

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Auria, a leading provider of advanced space, missile, and cyber solutions, today announced a partnership and contract with Mitsubishi Electric Corporation to deliver next-generation satellite communications capabilities through Auria’s advanced Kythera Operating System mission and resource management and optimization software.

Through the partnership, Auria will provide software to dynamically and autonomously manage, optimize, and orchestrate payload and network resources for Mitsubishi Electric’s next-generation, software-defined SATCOM satellites. The effort will leverage Auria’s Kythera Operating System (KOS), part of Auria’s HeliOS product line, to enable autonomous satellite service provisioning, real-time resource optimization, orchestration of space and ground assets, and adaptive mission operations in response to changing demand, operating conditions, and interference events.

“Mitsubishi Electric has a long history of advancing space technology, and we are proud to empower their innovation in dynamic, autonomous satellite communications,” said Damian DiPippa, CEO at Auria. “By combining Mitsubishi Electric’s advanced software-defined satellite hardware with Auria’s software for dynamic resource management and mission optimization, we are enabling Mitsubishi Electric customers to leverage higher capacity and more flexible, resilient, responsive, and efficient SATCOM services.”

Auria will also provide its KOS Interference Manager module, a HeliOS capability that dynamically detects, geolocates, and mitigates signal interference. Together, these capabilities help satellite operators maintain high-quality, resilient service while adapting to changing operating conditions and mission needs.

The partnership with Mitsubishi Electric reflects Auria’s growing role in delivering intelligent software systems for complex space operations. Auria’s HeliOS platform is designed to serve as a software mission segment system for advanced SATCOM architectures, providing the Space Brain® needed to autonomously provision service, optimize resources, and support resilient communications across dynamic operating environments.

“This partnership is about marrying Mitsubishi Electric’s advanced satellite systems with the intelligent software needed to manage and optimize them,” said Andy Musliner, SVP Growth at Auria. “As SATCOM architectures become more capable and complex, satellite manufacturers and their operator customers need systems that can adapt on the fly, manage resources autonomously, and mitigate interference in real time. That is exactly where Auria’s HeliOS product line and its Kythera Operating System deliver value.”

Mitsubishi Electric has been a pioneer in Japanese space technology since the 1960s and has contributed to a broad range of satellite programs and space systems. This partnership underscores the importance of software-defined, autonomous mission management as satellite communications systems continue to evolve.
