Now we capture the European market – ACIS says!

Today users of public means of transport demands reliable real time information about fx. if and when a bus is leaving a specific bus stop, or if there are any delays on a travel route. Therefore, real time passenger information is becoming an important tool in the struggle to get more passengers to use public transport.

It demands advanced communication and information systems to be able to provide and communicate this knowledge quick and reliably. ACIS, Englands leading company within such systems, with more than twenty systems running in UK, Holland and soon in Norway, have now decided to intensivate their efforts on the European continent. Hans Blankestijn, European Manager says," Since 1995 ACIS have been the leading company within real time information for local authorities, operators and passengers. The many projects have given us great experience in the handling of important traffic solutions both software and hardware wise. The quality of our R&D and project management is today at such a high level, that it is with great optimism we now intensivate our efforts into the rest of Europe. In this connection we have now chosen the Danish company PITsolutions to be our bridgehead" to all of Scandinavia.

Flemming Lohmann-Jensen, former founder and entrepreneur within technology for use of real time information, is today the owner of PITsolutions. I connection with the appointment as agent for ACIS in Scandinavia he says, "during the last nearly ten years I have worked with the market for ITS systems (edit. Intelligent Transport Systems). These are the systems which
Makes it possible to provide more or less reliable real time information. It is annoying to the passenger if the monitor at the bus stop informs that the bus will arrive in two minutes, when the passenger actually can see the backend of the bus, because it has just left the bus stop." And Flemming Lohmann-Jensen continues, products and systems have during the last years become very good. And some of the best I have seen up till now are the systems ACIS have developed. It is therefore with great pleasure, that we can represent ACIS in Scandinavia. Also because their systems can complement the products we already are marketing for real time information solutions to fx. applications where both bus terminals, urban and/or bus routes outside cities have to function together in a broader information system.
