DALLAS, TX, Jul 17, 2009 AGRI-DYNAMICS through its target acquisition, The GPS Tracking Network, Inc., announced today it is providing a custom application and GPS tracking to the Yellow Cab Company of Dallas, Texas. Yellow Cab operates over 1,400 vehicles and selected GPS Tracking to provide tracking and management reporting services to its airport shuttle vehicles.
Jack Bewley, President of Yellow Cab Company, said, "We selected GPS Tracking because of their superior service and reliable, state of the art management tools. They were able to leverage our existing infrastructure and provide us with a tailored product that's also cost effective.
"Dispatch is one of our biggest cost centers; by automating the process through GPS Tracking's proprietary software we were able to notably reduce our cost to transmit and improve overall efficiency."
GPS Tracking created a custom application for Yellow Cab that leveraged its existing 2-way radio dispatch system. GPS Tracking installed their TrackerTel MX software directly at the Company's server allowing it to integrate seamlessly into the Company's 2-way radio network. Yellow Cab's drivers installed with the software now receive real-time, accurate dispatch information that is extrapolated by GPS Tracking's software and transmitted over the Company's 2-way radio system.
