Selectron Technologies and GeoNorth Announce Strategic Partnership to Enhance Service Offerings

Mutually beneficial partnership will provide government agencies with the ability to include integrated solutions

PORTLAND, OREGON — August 9, 2006 — Selectron Technologies, Inc., the foremost provider of interactive voice, web, and mobile solutions for government agencies, and GeoNorth, a leading edge Geographic Information Systems (GIS) consulting company offering a variety of commercial solutions and consulting services to organizations that want to take advantage of technological innovation in the field of GIS, today announced the launch of a strategic partnership.

 

By leveraging each other’s expertise, each company will be able to provide a richer level of services to its customers. Agencies wishing to incorporate GIS functionality now have the option of using integrated solutions from Selectron and GeoNorth. Because both companies use the same development platform, integration is clear-cut and eliminates conflict between underlying product code. Customers using Selectron’s telephony and mobile products have a trusted partner who can provide consulting and development expertise regardless of the scope of work.

 

“The partnership is a natural evolution because of the core functionality and similar business philosophies the two organizations share,” says Todd Johnston, President and CEO of Selectron Technologies. “Selectron strives to continually raise the bar with respect to its value proposition. This new partnership with GeoNorth represents this commitment and enables us to continue enhancing our service offering to better serve our customers.”

 

“Many organizations are now realizing how the value of their business systems can be dramatically increased by leveraging GIS technology,” says Marshall Payne, a Principal and NW Operations Manager with GeoNorth. “The partnership with Selectron will allow us to provide even better integrated and enterprise GIS solutions for our customers across North America.”
