Tags: cyber, internet, TechnologyFTL Finance Enlists SteadyRain for Mobile Application Development
St Louis, MO, January 28, 2012 –(PR.com)– SteadyRain, an award-winning digital agency located in St. Louis, Missouri, announces partnership with FTL Finance for the development of a custom iPad application (app), which will serve as the mobile complement to the current web-based application.
The mobile solution provides FTL Finance contractors’ the ability to document time-sensitive information in the field and upload the necessary credit data directly to the web-based application, eliminating the need for additional time and paperwork.
“The mobile solutions SteadyRain has developed for FTL finance will allow contractors to collect potential customer information on site, right there with the lead,” said Todd Grzybinski of FTL Finance. “This enables faster turn-around on the credit approval process. Contractors can potentially provide credit approval while waiting with the customer.”
A series of customized applications will be included in the main iPad app, which includes Customer Application, Business Application, and Contractor Application as well as financial calculators. Application usage will be dependent on the type of work the contractor is enlisted to perform.
Through the development of customizable applications within the iPad app, FTL Finance and its contractors have greater control over the organization of information and the ability to quickly locate data on the web-based application, once the necessary details are uploaded from the iPad.
“FTL came to us with a challenge. Their contractors needed faster approval on credit applications in order to close deals. Working with FTL, we devised a plan that would allow mobile devices to capture data on-site,” said Joe Marcallini, Vice President of Internet Strategy, SteadyRain. “SteadyRain chose to develop a native application for the iPad. Tablets, such as the iPad, have proven to be a successful source for B2B interactions.”
SteadyRain worked previously with FTL Finance on web application development projects and is excited to partner again within the ever-evolving field of mobile technology.

Waukesha, WI, January 28, 2012 –(PR.com)– Odyne Systems, LLC, a Waukesha, Wisconsin based leader in hybrid systems for medium and heavy duty trucks, has delivered seven trucks featuring the Odyne advanced plug-in hybrid propulsion system to utilities and municipalities throughout Wisconsin. Communities and utilities receiving the new technology were partially funded under the Wisconsin Clean Transportation Program jointly administered through the Wisconsin State Energy Office and the U.S. Department of Energy Wisconsin Clean Cities Program. The new units are anticipated to deliver fuel efficiency over a conventional truck of up to 50% annually, depending upon the use of the truck.
Lorrie Lisek, Executive Director of Wisconsin Clean Cities Southeast Area, Inc., noted “The implementation of this technology in the Wisconsin Clean Transportation Program has resulted in efforts not only to reduce our nation’s dependence on petroleum, but to additionally improve air quality and develop statewide economic opportunities.”
Odyne’s proprietary and patented hybrid technology combines reliable electric power conversion, power control and energy storage technology with Remy advanced electric propulsion motors, modular Johnson Controls lithium-ion battery systems and other robust, automotive quality components. The Odyne plug-in hybrid drive system reduces fleet operating and maintenance costs, and depending on duty cycle, enables large trucks to obtain significant fuel economy improvements compared to traditional diesel engines. The Odyne advanced hybrid system also lowers emissions and provides a quiet, safe working environment with good work site communication, setting the new benchmark for the hybrid work truck industry.
The following have received advanced Odyne hybrid systems under the Wisconsin Clean Transportation Program:
Milwaukee County took delivery of four work trucks in December 2011 and January 2012 that will be used throughout Milwaukee County to maintain traffic signals and street lighting. Although the county automotive fleet includes hybrids, these are the first hybrid trucks they are putting to work. Manufactured by DUECO, Inc. the vehicles feature the first Odyne hybrid systems installed on Kenworth truck chassis and are the first to power Venturo corner mount cranes, which will be used in sign maintenance and to lift lighting as the county switches to more efficient LED lighting. The trucks feature fiberglass bodies and Terex TL60 aerial buckets, recognized for their stability.
Marshfield Utilities, serving the city of Marshfield, Wisconsin took delivery of its first Odyne hybrid truck in 2009. A second truck with a more advanced Odyne plug-in hybrid system was delivered in December 2011. Both units feature a Navistar chassis, Terex HRX55 booms and fiberglass bodies. The trucks are used for construction and maintenance of the Marshfield utility grid. Greg Geiger, Electric Operating Supervisor with Marshfield Utilities, summed up what he likes about the Odyne hybrid trucks by saying, “Besides saving fuel, and therefore decreasing our carbon footprint, the biggest benefit has been for our guys working on the ground. There are no diesel fumes to breathe in and it’s a nice quiet work environment to communicate in.”
The Richland Center unit of Wisconsin Public Power, Inc. will be putting a new Terex TCX60 boom and fiberglass body on a Navistar chassis with the Odyne hybrid system into action in their community for the construction and maintenance of the utility grid. Dale Bender, Electrical Superintendant at Richland Center, commented, “We are excited to receive our first hybrid bucket truck and are looking forward to helping educate the public about ‘hybrids’ and Richland Center’s efforts to create a ‘greener’ environment.” He went on to note, “The line crew is looking forward to the improved working conditions, including quiet operation, as well as the advantages of fuel savings.”
The Lake Mills Unit of Wisconsin Public Power, Inc. is also putting a new Terex TCX60 with a fiberglass body on a Navistar chassis to work constructing and maintaining the utility grid.
Joe Dalum, President of Odyne Systems, LLC noted, “We were pleased to work with each of these Wisconsin based businesses to bring the advantages of hybrid systems to their work truck fleets under the Wisconsin Clean Transportation Program. Collectively, these organizations are making a positive impact on the environment in their move to hybrid fleets.”
Odyne hybrid systems are modular and can be applied to a wide range of new and existing commercial work vehicles. Odyne hybrid systems are sold through a worldwide distribution network. DUECO, Inc., of Waukesha, Wisconsin sold and applied the advanced system to the seven vehicles under the Wisconsin Clean Transportation program.
About Odyne Systems, LLC
Odyne is a leader in hybrid drive systems for medium and heavy duty vehicles. Odyne’s advanced plug-in hybrid technology enables trucks over 14,000 pounds to have substantially lower fuel consumption, lower emissions, improved performance, quieter job site operation and reduced operating and maintenance costs.
