A software engineer, hardware engineer and company division manager were on their way to a meeting in Switzerland. They were driving down a steep mountain road when suddenly the brakes failed. The car careened out of control, bouncing off guard rails until it ground to a halt along the mountainside. The occupants were unhurt, but stuck halfway down the mountain in a car with no brakes.

"I know," said the manager. "Let's have a meeting, propose a Vision, formulate a Mission Statement, define some Goals, and through a process of continuous improvement, find a solution to the Critical Problems, and we'll be on our way."

"No," said the hardware engineer. "I've got my Swiss army knife with me. I can strip down the car's braking system, isolate the fault, fix it, and we'll be on our way."

"Wait," said the software engineer. "Before we do anything, shouldn't we push the car back to the top of the mountain and see if it happens again?"

So what is new with us this month?  The NEW Geomatic Resources website should be rolled out in a few weeks.  You will absolutely want to keep an eye out for that.  Imagine the old CDS website but a hundred times better!  We are all excited internally and know you will love the changes as well.

We are moving along pretty steadily on our end and continuing to be the absolute best we can be.  Right now we are fully equipped from stakes to software and everything in between and can handle your needs whatever they may be.  Want to talk GPS, talk to one of our experts.  Want to know why you should be using Machine Control, talk to our experts.  Want to know why you should be scanning instead of taking mass amounts measurements the old way, talk to our expert.  We don't just sell stuff, we are experts with what we carry.  If you have been thinking about something give us a call and let us answer your questions and help you make the best decision you can for your business.

This is what I love most about this transition.  The philosophies that I held dear while running Carlson Desktop Solutions are the same philosophies held by the staff at Geomatic Resources.  Very little has changed from what we did then to what we do now, except we have a broader product offering and a stronger team to support what we do.  My background in software fits in nicely and really adds that extra strength to the team.

Enough about us though, what is new with you?  I have gotten a few calls lately from people who have moved to new companies and a few that have started new businesses.  If something has changes, please make sure to let me know!  I always like keeping up with where you are and what is new.  I am also trying to keep myself in the office a little more and making myself more available for you to just drop by and say hello.  While I like being busy  and running around like a mad man, I enjoy more being able to catch my breath and catch up with old friends.  So with that said, please drop me an email pc@geotx.com or give me a call and let me know what is new with you!  

I am working on software classes and seminars for next year including Carlson SurvCE, Leica Viva!, Leica Cyclone, and a few others.  If you have something specific you would like to see please send me an email and let me know!  There is nothing I like less than scheduling classes and seminars that nobody wants or needs!
