Capturit™ Debuts Comprehensive Technology Solutions for North American Solid Waste Industry

EXETER, N.H., April 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Capturit™ today announced the launch of a comprehensive suite of products and services designed to help commercial and residential waste haulers maximize revenue collection, increase landfill diversion and boost customer satisfaction.  

The company's innovative portfolio includes an array of software services that enable data management from "container to invoice" and are designed to integrate with any billing software platform.  Capturit also offers next-generation hardware installation, including operational platform components, weighing hardware and in-cab screens developed to install on any truck model in the field; local and remote after-sales support provided by the company's engineers and national network of affiliated technicians; and scalable cart deployment capability.

The centerpiece of Capturit's integrated system is the effective use of RFID asset-tagging that can enable dramatic improvements in asset management and customer service.  In today's tech-focused market, where at least 50% of municipal cart bids include RFID, Capturit's RFID-based system can:

• Improve the bottom line through better asset utilization, optimization of routes through real-time tracking and elimination of free collections
• Provide real-time data to eliminate missed customer pick-ups and keep customer service representatives informed
• Capture lost revenue and maintain 100% revenue assurance through daily hands-off system monitoring
• Facilitate the implementation of creative business models, such as pay-as-you-throw, pay-by-weight and other incentive-based billing programs

"Now, when waste haulers look to select a partner who can take their operations and technology to the next level, Capturit can provide a system and level of support that is second to none," said John O'Hare, Vice President of Operations at Capturit.   "We are the only end-to-end technology provider focused solely on the waste industry, we are the only provider with a national support organization, and we are the only provider that has the experience of implementing integrated systems in a wide variety of waste and recycling markets.  In addition, our customers can benefit from a 'one-call' solution, because Capturit owns the intellectual property and is responsible for ensuring the smooth operation of each element of our system."

Capturit was established through a strategic partnership including Ireland-based solid waste and recycling industry leader AMCS Group.  Capturit's exclusive license agreement with AMCS will enable the new company to bring AMCS' sophisticated on-board truck system technology, which has been deployed on more than 1,000 trucks servicing over five million containers, to the North American market.  Through its heavy focus on IP research and development, AMCS was the first company to integrate weighing and identification technology with GPS and real-time data communications, helping customers to improve profitability and dramatically improve recycling rates.

Capturit's expanding customer roster includes installations in California, Ohio, Texas, Minnesota, Michigan and Florida.  For more information, please visit www.capturit.com.
