WASHINGTON, Jan. 25 - The Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America) launched the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Industry Source, a unique online search tool that will give its members and other industry stakeholders with quick access to an extensive directory of industry-specific products and services.

Within the ITS Industry Source online searchers will be able to easily locate products and services unique to the industry without the clutter of a general Internet search engine. Users will have the option of performing keyword-driven searches, or a category-specific search. Both methods will produce the most industry relevant results on the Web.

The guide will also include Request for Information (RFI) functionality. This feature allows users to contact participating suppliers with a click of their mouse. With a downloadable desktop search application available, association members will also have the ability to search for items directly from a small search window on their desktops - making the search process as convenient and time-efficient as possible.

Along with the option to purchase a graphically robust company listing, direct Web site hyperlink and e-mail generation capacity, the guide will allow supplier companies to add videos to their listing for a small administrative fee. This feature gives guide users immediate access to video formatted information and promotions that will help them easily procure products and services specific to their industry needs.
