Boca Raton, FL – March 2017 — ETA Transit Systems is excited to announce the successful deployment of its SPOT® ITS on the passenger shuttle services at the Houston Airport Systems. This new installation equips the 50-plus airport vehicles with the latest in real-time vehicle tracking, data collection and analytics, and traveler information systems.
“We considered several solutions for our shuttle operations,” states Steve Howard, General Manager of SP+—the company charged with managing Houston Airport shuttles. “The winning factor when selecting ETA as our transit vendor was the ease of customization. The ability to change routes on the fly was something we’d utilized at our San Diego Airport operations, and it’s made a significant difference. The application of this functionality to our Eco Park routes has provided our riders with an exceptional improvement to our service.”
ETA Transit CEO Nicole Castonguay offers, “The inherent value of SPOT is its versatility. Developing custom solutions for our various customer’s operational needs is an important differentiator between our solutions and that of our competitors. Our active development processes are both nimble and proactive, and that provides our clients with a significant benefit in addressing both current and future transit needs.”
“The technology is going to be a difference-maker for us,” Howard added. “But technology is only as good as the employees who use it, and ETA made sure our staff had the comprehensive training they needed to get up-and-running quickly, and the after-the-sale support we need ensure our continued operational proficiency. I’m beyond pleased with this entire experience.”
