Gamber Johnson Certifies USAT as Nationwide Installation Provider

Chapel Hill, NC —January 25, 2005—USAT, a leader in field computing systems integration, is proud to announce that Gamber Johnson has recognized USAT as a Certified Nationwide Installation Provider of their technology mounting systems for vehicle fleets.

Gamber Johnson, the pre-eminent mount manufacturer in the United States, with a 37-year history in the marketplace, first partnered with USAT in 1998. The two companies have worked together on hundreds of fleet mobility projects since then, a growing relationship that recently culminated in USAT being named one of only two nationally certified installation partners for Gamber Johnson.

The Gamber Johnson certification process is a stringent one because this core manufacturer wants to assure client organizations that their mounting system is not only well-designed and manufactured to quality standards, but that it also is installed correctly, professionally and safely. During an on-site visit to USAT, Gamber Johnson focused on these points: proper mounting system / hardware selection, best wiring practices, air bag safety, customer service skills, and product / installation warranty.

Central to the Gamber-Johnson Certified Installer Program is an ISO 9001:2000 certified training process based on the latest industry criteria that provides a thorough understanding of new and developing standards. In addition, USAT will issue an end-user survey with every certified installation to ensure customer satisfaction.

In order to perform installations on a national basis USAT maintains an in-house team of installation technicians. USAT installation teams travel to a client’s location to perform multi-component installation work. A typical job includes the installation of a computer, a GPS receiver, a wireless data modem, and two sets of antennas. Another part of USAT’s job is coordinating with local fleet supervisors to schedule times when the company vehicles can be made available. Some jobs keep the team away from headquarters for six weeks at a time.

Brad Pagel, Gamber Johnson’s National Installation Manager, states, “USAT is different from many technology systems’ integrators because they are not afraid to go out and do the real hands-on installation work—they really aim to bring their customers a turn-key experience, from the computers down to the ignition wires.”  Joseph Goss, USAT’s National Services Manager adds, “USAT has never had a dissatisfied client of our installation work, and I aim to keep it that way. I am proud of my team and the work that they do in vehicles all over the USA.”
