Introducing TAO: Tracking Assets Outdoors

Compsee is pleased to announce our new solution that allows users to easily track their outdoor equipment using the latest in cloud hosting, SMS and GPS technologies. The system starts with a GPS tracker attached to your equipment that sends a signal to Amazon cloud services via SMS. This data is then relayed to the end user on a map-based platform that can be accessed from any internet-connected device anywhere in the world.

Each of your tracking devices can easily be identified on the map and notifications can automatically be sent if the system detects movement of the equipment. For more information, visit our TAO page at compsee.com/TAO.

GIG HARBOR, WAControl Solutions, Inc, a supply chain management and mobility solutions company headquartered in Gig Harbor, Washington, has completed the acquisition of Compsee, Inc., a mobility systems company, from parent company, McRae Industries, Inc. The acquired group will continue to operate under the Compsee name, with Compsee’s Melbourne, Florida sales and customer services headquarters becoming the combined company’s east coast sales and operations center.

The acquisition of Compsee, with its sizable market share in the southeast U.S., will greatly enhance Control Solutions’ nationwide sales and support capabilities. According to Richard Mahmarian, President/CEO of Control Solutions, “not only will the integration of Compsee extend our geographic reach, but it will bring additional solutions to customers of both companies. We are particularly eager to introduce our warehouse management and other supply chain management and mobility solutions to Compsee’s existing customer base.”

Billy Graham will continue to lead the Compsee sales team which will now include the Control Solutions hardware and software solutions group. According to Billy, “we are excited to be part of the Control Solutions organization.
