Hudson Acquires AMT, Inc. and ALERT Software
The Hudson Group, a provider of technology solutions to the ground transportation industry has acquired the assets of Applied Management Technologies, Inc. (AMT) of Midland Park NJ. Formed in 1993 AMT developed ALERT the industry’s first Windows based software for limousine management.
According to Hudson President and CEO Mark Ustik “The Hudson Group is very excited about this strategic alliance with AMT. The ALERT product is a mature stable and proven system that has been used successfully by transportation providers for fifteen years. The addition of the ALERT product to Hudson’s suite of technology solutions will allow us to appeal to a greater number of clients and provide solutions to a broader customer base. According to Ustik, Hudson will be using the ALERT product “as part of an aggressive marketing strategy during 2009 to help combat economic hardships which have effected the ground transportation industry over the last year. “
