Aliant Mobility and Golumbo introduce GPS-enabled dispatching

Bathurst Police Department implements new Fleet Management and Dispatch Solution in their community

Saint John, NB - Organizations such as the Bathurst Police Department now have the advantage of GPS-enabled dispatching for their fleet management and dispatch service, as the result of collaboration with Golumbo, a Halifax based ICT and Mobile Professional Services organization, and Aliant, Atlantic Canada's leading information and communications technology provider.

Aliant Mobility introduced Golumbo's Fleet Management Solution to the City of Bathurst while working closely with them to find a suitable communications solution for their department. "We had some very unique requirements on a small budget to be able to implement this solution," said Edward Huzulak, Chief of Police for the Bathurst Police Department. "We wanted the data to remain on our premise, not hosted somewhere on the Internet, and it had to provide customizable reports and real-time tracking capabilities for our dispatchers."

"We are very pleased to be working with the City of Bathurst," said Trigve Vickers, CoFounder of Golumbo Integrated Solutions. "Working alongside Aliant Mobility proves we are capable of delivering solutions to their customers."

"Aliant Mobility's wireless data coverage is the most extensive coverage in Atlantic Canada," said Paul Pothier, Director, Wireless Business Marketing, Aliant Mobility. "Golumbo's Fleet Solutions support our latest network technology and provides a level of service our customers have come to expect. We are pleased to have been chosen by the City of Bathurst to assist them in delivering this capability within their community."
