Psion Teklogix wins global DoD contract

Psion Teklogix, the mobile computing and wireless data collection provider, has won a $1.8 million worldwide contract from the United States Defense Distribution Center (DDC).

Psion Teklogix will deploy GlobeRanger's iMotion Edgeware throughout DDC facilities by the end of 2007. This three-year contract, which begins immediately, will start with installations in the U.S. in 2006 and will be completed in worldwide sites by 2007.

The contract was issued to help DDC comply with the passive RFID mandatory tagging mandates set by the United States Department of Defense (DoD). DDC began an initial implementation in December of 2004 at two strategic distribution centers to receive goods from suppliers that have been tagged with passive RFID tags. With this new contract and the additional installations, DDC will now have the largest passive RFID installation within the U.S. government.
