| On 26 June 2003 there was a change in the ownership
of Data Collection Ltd (DCL). DCL's founder, Dr. Christopher Bennett, has accepted a
position with the World Bank in Washington D.C. He will be working as a full-time
transport specialist in the East Asia and Pacific Transport Unit. His involvement with DCL
will cease from the time of his appointment in the fourth quarter of 2003.DCL's current manager, Mr. Paul Hunter, will
continue with the firm and is participating in a management buy out with Mr. Jerry James,
DCL's North American agent, and Mr. Raj Mallela, who has worked closely with DCL for
several years. Between them these three have many years of experience in the data
collection, asset management, software development and other related fields. All other
staff will stay with DCL.
DCL will continue to focus on the
ROMDAS system and we are committed to serving our existing and potential customers with a
high standard of service and products. A separate company has been created to handle DCL's
existing non-ROMDAS business, such as the HDM-4 Information Management System (HIMS), and
this will be managed by Paul Hunter. We will continue to have a tight linkage between
ROMDAS and the HIMS.
We look forward to working with
you in the future and helping you to meet your road measurement needs. Our vision and focus remains as:
" To provide the best technology for measuring and managing roads"
