@Road(R), Inc. (NASDAQ:ARDI), a global provider of
next-generation Mobile Resource Management (MRM), today announced that
ELM Locating and Utility Services has selected @Road as its MRM
solutions provider. ELM is expected to use the @Road GeoManager(SM)
on-demand MRM solution that includes the powerful combination of
advanced @Road location intelligence technology with integrated Wi-Fi

designed to leverage the Verizon Wireless EV-DO broadband network, is
intended to give ELM the manageability and real-time visibility into

Field Technicians.
"ELM is another example of the market traction we're experiencing
within the utilities vertical," said Leo Jolicoeur, @Road chief

help it meet the customer's unique requirements for quick response
times, accuracy in marking of underground utility cables for safety
and confirmation of completed work."

functionality, ELM field technicians can use any Wi-Fi enabled device

information, which can lead to quicker initial response times and
improved technician productivity in the field.

offerings that have been proven in the utility industry," said Matt
