Trapeze Group Strengthens Commitment to End-to-End Intelligent Transportation Systems

Creates new Mobile Hardware & Communications Division; Integrates existing product and ITS development teams.

MISSISSAUGA, ON, November 9, 2006 — Trapeze Group today announced the strengthening of the company’s commitment to providing end-to-end intelligent transportation systems (ITS) through the creation of a new Mobile Hardware & Communications division and the integration of the company’s existing product development and ITS development teams. The changes are designed to further enhance Trapeze’s enterprise offering in the demand response and fixed route sectors.

“We are committed to delivering tightly coupled, customer-centric end-to-end intelligent transportation systems,” said Rick Bacchus, president, Trapeze Group. “The changes we are announcing today will further help agencies benefit from a seamless flow of information to and from vehicles, back office systems and management information systems.”

The new Mobile Hardware & Communications Division will focus on integrating Trapeze products with third-party hardware and software and deliver complete end-to-end solutions including the communications infrastructure required to make this happen. The division will be headed by Jeff Coil, an ITS architect with more than 12 years of design engineering experience in hardware, software, and systems.

Coil’s expertise includes network infrastructures, advanced radio communications systems, software interfaces, private wireless data networks, requirements analysis, traveler information systems, on-board vehicle computer systems, and bus rapid transit systems. He is also one of the inventors of a multiple communications controller patent designed to control real-time wireless data for local governments.

In other news, Trapeze also announced that Greg Tomsic, General Manager of the Trapeze ITS Division, has decided to retire. Commented Tomsic, “After nearly 20 years in this business I am happy to announce my retirement knowing that I have contributed to Trapeze’s success in delivering cost-effective, integrated end-to-end ITS systems for the fixed route and demand response sectors.”

“We appreciate the significant contribution that Greg has made to the company,” said Bacchus. “His hard work and dedication has helped Trapeze build a strong foundation for delivering an integrated end-to-end ITS solution. We wish Greg well in his retirement.”
