Leading Provider of Business-Class Cellular Management Services and Software
Enables Construction Companies to Reduce Costs and Increase Productivity

SAN FRANCISCO, June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- eMOBUS, a leading vendor of mobility
management services and software, today announced the latest construction
companies to choose Electronic Mobility Management for expense management,
inventory tracking, and cost allocation. BCCI Builders, Sukut Construction and
XL Construction are the latest general contracting firms to reduce costs and
increase productivity by utilizing eMOBUS' platform. They join a long list of
diverse Architecture, Engineering, and Construction companies to deploy
eMOBUS' array of business-class services. Electronic Mobility Management
allows these companies to reduce direct carrier billing costs, lessen the
amount of internal resources dedicated to cellular management, and improve
visibility of out-of-policy cellular usage. 

The announced new customer wins include: 

BCCI Builders (http://www.bcciconst.com/) - BCCI is a full-service
construction company, privately owned since 1986, with offices in San
Francisco and Palo Alto. BCCI offers full construction services including new
building, structural renovation, historic restoration, seismic upgrades,
commercial interiors, pre-construction services, sustainable construction and
LEED management. Customers value BCCI's ability to serve as collaborator and
confidant, rather than just another vendor or building contractor. The company
has been awarded "Best Places to Work" by the San Francisco Business Times and
San Jose Business Journal four years running and ranked in the top 25 largest
commercial contractors in the Bay Area. 
 
BCCI chose eMOBUS for its time-saving capabilities and powerful reporting
functionality. "eMOBUS is an extremely professional and flexible group of
people. They not only slashed our monthly service costs by 27%, they
eliminated the need to hire a full-time mobility manager," claims Ken Chua, IT
Director. "eMOBUS provides the service we need to streamline our cellular
management processes," said Chua. "The deployment was painless, and we were
instantly able to see savings within 60 days." 
 
Sukut Construction (http://www.sukut.com/) - Sukut Construction, based in
Santa Ana, CA, is the state's largest earthmover and is ranked by Engineering
News-Record magazine amongst the Top 200 Environmental Firms in the nation.
The company's commitment to the environment is evident in its recent overhaul
installation of computerized electronic engines that cut emissions by half in
their fleet of scrapers, dozers, motor graders, rock trucks and excavators. 

Since 2006 the Orange County Business Journal has ranked Sukut Construction as
one of the 100 Fastest-Growing Businesses. As Sukut's operations grew, they
needed solutions that would allow them to offload non-mission critical aspects
of the business. Cellular management was basically a thorn in the side for the
company's IT and Safety & Dispatch departments. "Since our implementation of
Electronic Mobility Management, we have experienced a significant return on
investment," said Mike Zanaboni - President. "A very low total cost of
ownership combined with an easy-to-use application made eMOBUS a risk-free
choice." 

XL Construction (http://www.xlconstruction.com/) - Based in Milpitas, CA, XL
Construction is accredited with LEED Silver Certification. Engineering
News-Record magazine ranks XL Construction among the Top 400 General
Contractors and Top 100 Green Contractors in the nation. XL's Customer base
consists of the Bay Area's leading Biopharmaceutical, Healthcare, Advanced
Technology, and Education organizations. A survey by the San Francisco
Business Times and San Jose Business Journal, rank XL Construction as one of
the "Best Places to Work in the Bay Area." 

Due to geographic coverage of project work, XL Construction was forced to
engage three cellular providers: AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon. The company needed
a solution to centralize multiple systems and processes through a single
web-based relationship. They chose eMOBUS because of its business-class
service and leading-edge software solution for reporting and customization
capabilities. 

"eMOBUS has played a key part in helping us reduce costs and increase
efficiency, especially in these economic conditions. We appreciate the vendor
agnostic approach along with the ability to have a real-time view of the
organizations cellular infrastructure," said Jerry Harmon, Vice President of
Human Resources. "The implementation was quick and smooth, as our staff was
able to start using the system within two weeks, with minimal training and
support. As we rolled out the system, eMOBUS services and support stood ready
to jump in to help when needed."
