Deal will Expand Service Offerings in Non-consent Towing and Presence in
California
HOUSTON, May 20 /PRNewswire/ -- C:Logic, a leading provider of Towing
Lifecycle Management solutions, today announced the acquisition of Newport
Beach-based Dispatch & Tracking Systems (DTS) , extending its portfolio of
automated dispatching, tracking and management of towing services.
An integrated C:Logic and DTS service offering will provide immediate
relief to law enforcement agencies trying to "connect the dots" by sharing
information across the towing lifecycle and with neighboring jurisdictions.
Voiceless dispatch, electronic vehicle holds and releases and a public web
site for citizens to search for towed vehicles will eliminate the need for
officer involvement after the initial towing authorization. Law enforcement
will also benefit from visibility and oversight of private property towing,
often more than 50% of non-consent tow volumes and a source for predatory and
financial abuses. Changes in local ordinances and recently enacted laws like
California AB221 require the towing and storage industry to report private
property towing.
"C:Logic's purchase of DTS represents an important milestone for the
industry and specifically to those people impacted by non-consent towing,"
states DTS CEO Sushil Garg. "C:Logic's unified approach to manage both
private property impounds, as well as police-initiated towing from the
incident through resolution will make the industry more efficient, improve
customer satisfaction and allow the police to spend more time fighting crime,
not pushing paper."
With over seven years of industry experience, DTS' solutions, Law
Enforcement Tow System (LETS) and Tow Management System (TMS) have offered a
superior approach to automating and managing disparate police-initiated towing
processes. LETS offers a comprehensive solution that allows law enforcement
agencies real-time access to tow related services and complete tow
coordination. Tow Management System (TMS) delivers a call management and
dispatch tracking system designed specifically for tow operations looking to
fully integrate their business. TMS and LETS information synchronization
provide exception-based compliance oversight, unified billing, and simplified
management of vehicle holds.
C:Logic's C:VISTA(TM) patent-pending technology delivers a comprehensive,
Software as a Service (SaaS) solution that streamlines dispatching and towing
operations and enables information collaboration among area law enforcement,
the towing and storage Industry and the general public. C:VISTA enables the
electronic collection of all towing information, including those involving
private property impounds, and the sharing of this information between
jurisdictions.
"We are constantly looking for ways to increase the value delivered to our
customers," states Lawrence Estes, CEO of C:Logic. "The close alignment of
DTS service and customer base reinforces our leadership in non-consent towing
information-sharing and notification. The end result is that law enforcement
can be more efficient, the towing and storage industry can meet compliance
mandates and most importantly, citizens can find their towed cars."
After the purchase, DTS will become a wholly owned subsidiary of C:Logic
and maintain an office in Newport Beach, California.
