Savannah River Technologies, Inc. (SRT) Clients Experience The Benefits Of The SIDEKICKAIKEN, S.C., July 27 -- SRT clients are beginning to experience significant cost savings by utilizing the SIDEKICK, a GPS vehicle tracking device offered exclusively by Savannah River Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SVHR). C.J. Dean Roofing Inc., a mid-sized general contracting firm in North Carolina, began investigating vehicle monitoring devices during the third quarter of 1997. Shortly after installation of the SIDEKICK, Chris Deans reported savings of $200 per day in payroll costs alone by utilizing the vehicle monitoring device on twelve of his vehicles. "The SIDEKICK tells me where my vehicles are every step of the way, and as a result, we have seen an increase in productivity and lower operating costs," said Deans. The SIDEKICK provides fleet owners and managers the ability to essentially travel with their vehicles, without actually begin there. Similar to a "black box" in airplanes the unit automatically records date, time, location, direction of travel, speeds, stops and stop details. Information is recorded onto a PC card for uploading to a personal computer. SRT SIDEKICK Software provides summary information about a particular trip's activity including maximum speeds traveled, total miles traveled and total time on the road. By utilizing various switches and sensors, the unit can also record other vehicle functions such as the opening of doors or even seat occupancy. SRT is the exclusive manufacturer and distributor for the SIDEKICK. In addition to the exclusive license rights to the SIDEKICK, SRT holds the rights to the improvement patent as well as the rights to the SIDEKICK software, which is marketed along with the device. SRT is a public company whose stock is traded under the symbol SVHR. Information concerning the availability of SRT stock may be obtained through Alpine Securities Corporation in Salt Lake City, Utah.
