Dulles, VA, April 03, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Technology Advancement Group®, Inc. (TAG®), and Carlson Software, Inc (Carlson) are pleased to announce today an exclusive strategic partnership agreement designed to benefit both companies by better serving their mining, construction, landfill and precision agriculture customers in the global market.

“Our partnership benefits combine leading technology and services, providing our customers with the most advanced hardware and software solutions,” stated Jim McEwan, TAG’s CEO. “TAG and Carlson each offer over 25 years of experience making this a great opportunity that benefits our customers. Working together, we can supply our customers one of the largest user-based field survey software suites and the most scalable, flexible, and powerful handheld rugged systems in the machine control and heavy equipment positioning markets.”
"We are excited about our partnership with TAG bringing their military hardware manufacturing expertise to the mining, construction, landfill and precision agricultural positioning markets," stated Randy Noland, Carlson's VP of Business Development and Director of Machine Control.
