As part of our efforts to keep Community Transportation magazine readers
abreast of the latest products, services and technology available, we have
launched a special Partner Profile section. Our new column premieres with
WICS Technology, a New York-based technology company in the rapidly growing
field of Wireless Mobile Computing and GPS Vehicle Tracking Solutions. Their
clients are companies of all sizes from a small fleet of three vehicles to Fortune 500 companies
with fleets of hundreds of vehicles. WICS Technology is a team of engineers and technicians brought
together to help companies understand their Global Positioning System (GPS)
needs and help them choose the right GPS solution to fit their operation.
WICS Technology has their own in-house installation/repair service that
installs GPS vehicle tracking systems and services the equipment at your
preferred location. This service is one of the principal features, which
raises WICS Technology above all other GPS companies. WICS maintains a team of
certified technicians as well as fully equipped service vans, which enable
the technicians to quickly service any GPS unit and/or system.

"The thing that I like best about WICS is that they had a technician at my
site within 24 to 48 hours and they did not even initially install the
system! We made a mistake and brought our GPS system elsewhere from a
company that did not do their own servicing. Ap-parently, they had subcontracted
with a two-way radio company to service their GPS equipment. At the time we
did not think it made a difference, but when we needed service it took
anywhere from two to three months to get service."

WICS Technology provides real-time GPS vehicle tracking systems for
fleet owners and dispatchers in the trucking and transportation industry.
Our GPS vehicle tracking system allows fleet owners and their dispatchers
the ability to track their fleet in real time 24 hours a day, seven days a
week. In addition to accurately pinpointing ve-hicles, a GPS vehicle
tracking system can improve vehicle routing, minimize voice traffic to the
driver, reduce ex-pense and increase revenue. A glance at the map allows
dispatchers and fleet owners to know the vehicle's exact loca-tion and speed
and status of the fleets. Data concerning the speed, route and stop status
of each vehicle in any given period, odometer readings per vehicle, and
state fuel tax information are just a few of the reports that can be
gener-ated from certain GPS vehicle tracking systems.

CT Magazine: How does the product impact non-emergency medical and ambulette
transporta-tion? Does it help make the service more efficient and
cost-effective?

A vehicle tracking system is especially useful to the non-emergency medical
and ambulette transportation industry. Increased revenue, decreased expense
and maintenance of customer satisfac-tion are three variables that are very
important to any business owner. This is especially true of the
non-emergency medical and ambulette transportation business owner. By
knowing the exact location of their drivers, dispatch can easily redirect
drivers. The number of pick-ups increases per driver (increasing revenue).
Overtime will be down to almost zero because now drivers will not take their
time between calls or returning to the office (decreasing expense). By
knowing the exact location of each vehicle, ambulette service companies can
improve customer service.
