Imarda receives US$3.5M follow-on
order
Auckland, 16 March 2011 - Mobile
Resource Management (MRM) company Imarda Inc has received a
follow-on order worth US$3.5 million from a large publicly
listed, US freight services company.
Imarda CEO
Selwyn Pellett, says the US$3.5 million deal demonstrates
the customer's confidence in the company, strategy,
technology road map and Imarda's product offering.
"It's always rewarding when a Tier 1 customer comes back
and reconfirms their confidence in you with a second large
order," says Pellett.
The order for more than 3000
units of in-vehicle tracking hardware follows the initial
order for 12,000 units in 2008. The 3000 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
and PLC enabled V300 telematics devices along with 10,000 of
Imarda's second generation electronic Trailer Identification
Tags will be delivered over the current financial year.
Imarda's solution, used in conjunction with other
technologies, enables the company to capture and provide
real-time vehicle information whilst at the same time
improving asset utilisation, compliance and driver
safety.
"Imarda's hardware success is based on
providing its customers with technology options that enable
the rapid development of customised solutions to meet
specific customer and market needs," says Pellett. "We are a
technology enabler to help our customers unleash latent
business performance and improve customer satisfaction. It's
nice when you're told via a large order like this that
you're on the right track.
