ABOUT TCS
  Transcom was founded in 1986 as a research company specialising in wireless mobile communications and maintains extensive patents for its technologies in numerous countries.

Transcom pioneered the "One Stop Shop" concept for the wireless mobile data market, particularly for Courier, Transport, Infield Service and Companies and Government Agencies.

What sets Transcom apart from other providers and integrators is our specific emphasis on both tailored client applications and total solution mobile data systems.

Transcom in-vehicle technology and its interaction both with the end-user (driver) and with the base software systems is a critical link in a mobile data solution and provides its clients with real cost savings.

The Transcom Market Edge
Transcom culture is to market feedback and have been able thus far at minimal cost to improve its products and services to achieve certain advantages over its competitors.

The main advantages are seen as:

  • A "One Stop Shop" for the client which includes:

    OEM integration of radios/network/software (both business and vehicle positioning).
    System determination and design that provides a "future proofing" approach, using a scalable technology   platform that enables easy adoption of new technology going forward.
    Mobile Data Hardware and Software product supply (total system).
    Vehicle Tracking and Positioning Software and Hardware supply (total system).
    Choice of Networks including access to New Tel GSM national and international services and tariffs.
    OEM product integration (e.g.: data loggers, barcode scanning, printers, etc.).
      Transcom is an accredited dealer of: Symbol, Psion and Compaq technologies within Australia.

    Quality Project Management (Start to Finish programme).
    Installation and commissioning (fully coordinated).
    Ongoing total system support (with SLA options).
  • Products of ruggedised design and operating temperatures designed and built in Western Australia with proven track record of performance in harsh conditions.
  • Portability and security of the MD3000 MDT with its in-built Data Link Controller (Smart Modem) and integrated Qwerty Keypad. (Optionally the MDT can be bolted securely into the vehicle).
  • Most Competitor MDT's have zero portability; can only offer "bolt on" Qwerty and attached modems, causing space, installation, legal (Work safe/ergonomic) and practicality problems.
  • Outsourcing of OEM supply (through strategic alliances and installation training and commissioning as well as product choice).
  • Competitors still maintain heavy engineering overheads due to dealer and manufacturing commitments that restricts their flexibility in product offerings.
  • Quality and integrity of Transcom quotations is industry accepted as being of a higher quality.

Transcom can offer to its Client's a significant total business solution for a full end-to-end mobile data and vehicle tracking system integrated into their Network of choice.
