Exciting news from HaulTech
After 12 years with the company, Clare Armstrong will be leaving on Friday 2nd March 2012.

The continued growth of, and commitment to HaulTech together with on-going product development and customer support remains central to our philosophy. With this in mind, I am delighted to announce that John Brookes has been promoted to take on the role of Sales Manager with the support of Dean Woolliscroft and Bev Walker. Dean will also be supporting Barry Mayer promoting the new TrakMan telematics solutions.

As you know, HaulTech recently acquired TrakMan telematics and as part of this acquisition, we have a number of new team members who each have a wealth of industry experience. Therefore, Martin Bates will move into John Brooke’s previous role as Customer Support Manager with the continued support of the I.T team, led by Steve Kimberley.

Following the acquitision of TrakMan, HaulTech has some really exciting times and opportunities ahead and I look forward to bringing you news of exciting new developments over the coming months that will save you money and improve your operational performance.

Once again, we will be at the C.V show in April, so please do come and see us on stand number 2B91 when some of these developments will be demonstrated.

Finally, I am sure that you will join me in wishing John success in his new role and Clare all the best in her new appointment at Isuzu Trucks.

Regards,

Geoff Brook
Managing Director

HaulTech TrakMan has a rich portfolio of vehicle tracking, management and telematics systems offering users:

  1. Dynamic ETA Notification
  1. Vehicle & Load Security
  1. Fuel Cost Control
  1. Trailer Identification
  1. Driver Hours Reporting
  1. Driver and Driving Style Monitoring
  1. Satellite Navigation & Traffic Reports
  1. Financial & Performance Reporting

The acquisition of CS Electronics and the addition of HaulTech TrakMan will further enhance the HaulTech portfolio offering customers of both companies a fully integrated Traffic Office and Vehicle Management solution.

HaulTech has retained key members of the TrakMan team including Barry Mayer who will become HaulTech’s Telematics Consultant along with IT and service support to ensure continuity of service and continued development and integration of the HaulTech TrakMan and HaulTech solutions.

“As the HaulTech brand continues to develop and gain market share it is essential for us to add more products and services to our offering and the acquisition of HaulTech TrakMan is a major step towards our goal of offering a fully integrated portfolio of products to the transport industry” says Geoff Brook, Managing Director of HTC Solutions Ltd. “By adding tracking, vehicle telematics, driver hours reporting, navigation and messaging solutions to the HaulTech brand we are uniquely positioned to offer new and existing customers a comprehensive one-stop-shop for all their asset management system requirements.”
