HACKENSACK, N.J., Oct. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- I.D. Systems, Inc.
(Nasdaq: IDSY) today announced that it has received orders from the U.S.
Postal Service (USPS) to deploy the company's Wireless Asset Net(TM) powered
industrial vehicle management system at nine additional USPS facilities.
These orders increase the number of USPS facilities deploying the Wireless
Asset Net to 22. Under the terms of the USPS' three-year national contract
with I.D. Systems, up to 460 USPS facilities can order the Wireless Asset Net
system.
The nine new facility orders are valued at approximately $2.6 million.
"We are beginning to see the adoption rate within the Postal Service
approach our expectations, and we are confident our comprehensive wireless
solution for managing their powered industrial vehicles will continue to
provide significant benefit for the Postal Service," said Rick Muntz, I.D.

satisfaction. "We are fortunate to have gained significant experience in
managing these types of enterprise roll outs with some of our previous
industrial and commercial customers."
About The Wireless Asset Net(TM)
The Wireless Asset Net consists of intelligent wireless devices installed
on powered industrial vehicles (such as fork trucks and pallet movers), a
patented communication infrastructure, and client-server software for access
control, utilization analysis, real-time location tracking, and many other
functions. The system is designed to improve industrial workplace safety and
security by restricting vehicle access to trained, authorized operators and by
providing electronic safety inspection checklists. The system is designed to
reduce maintenance expenses by automatically uploading vehicle data, reporting
vehicle problems in real time, giving management the option of scheduling
maintenance according to actual vehicle usage rather than on a calendar basis,
and helping plant management determine the optimal economic time to replace
equipment. The system is also designed to help improve productivity by
ensuring equipment is in the proper place at the right time and by providing
management with unique reports on vehicle utilization.
