Mississauga, ON, Canada –– Psion Teklogix (LSE: PON), a global provider of solutions for mobile computing, wireless data collection, imaging and RFID, today announced Datatrac Corporation, a leading software developer and wireless communications solutions provider, has signed a co-marketing agreement with Psion Teklogix.  The agreement enables both companies to provide advanced mobile computing solution options to the trucking, courier, freight forwarding and shipping industries.   

Under the new partnership, Datatrac will continue to work closely with Psion Teklogix to provide innovative technology solutions with advanced capabilities such as accurate data capture and real-time updates. Such features will give their mutual customers the advantage in the highly competitive transportation logistics industry.

“To remain competitive, our customers depend on accurate shipment information at each step of the delivery process. Psion Teklogix mobile computing solutions are a natural extension of our eTrac system, and through this partnership, we will provide the tools needed to manage critical data on the front lines of the delivery business,” said Garland Duvall, Chief Executive Officer of Datatrac Corporation.   

eTrac automatically tracks shipment information electronically from order entry through delivery, invoicing, reconciliation and settlement, including signature capture for proof of delivery.  As the heart of a complete solution designed to lower operating costs and improve productivity, eTrac interacts directly with other value-added software systems, including Datatrac’s COPS (Courier Order Processing System), and STATIS (Shipment Tracking and Tracing Information System) products.  Unlike other tracking and tracing solutions, eTrac requires no capital outlay, no technical training and no disruption of current IT processes.
