XRS, the mobile trucking intelligence leader and prominent supplier of software solutions to the trucking industry to help maintain regulatory compliance and reduce operating costs, was given the top prize in the Mobile Technologies category for the 2013 Tekne Awards. The program sponsor, the Minnesota High Tech Association, announced the winners last night at a dinner and awards ceremony.

“We are grateful to have received top honors at the Tekne Awards and believe this is just the beginning of the mobile revolution in trucking,” said XRS Corporation Chairman and CEO Jay Coughlan. “XRS is proud to be moving our industry forward by providing the solutions both fleet managers and drivers want and need to succeed in all aspects of the business. Recognition from our peers in Minnesota’s high-tech marketplace is both humbling and exciting, and we are eager to share more award-worthy innovations in 2014.”

Since its introduction in March 2013, XRS has been the first and only complete mobile platform for compliance and fleet optimization. The XRS mobile platform ensures compliance with current regulatory standards for electronic recording of a driver’s hours of service by automatically sending vehicle and operator data through the cloud to a fleet management dashboard. An additional advantage the XRS has is the flexibility to run on a broad swath of different certified mobile devices.

Established in 2000 and highly coveted among Minnesota companies, the Tekne Awards recognize Minnesota’s best and brightest technology users and developers in innovation, development, education, commercialization and management.
