It's Trade Show Season for Team Panther

We sent a team to Oklahoma City armed with educational materials, giveaways, and a demonstration of our BlackCat Grant Management System.  The response from staff members of the attending Departments of Transportation was overwhelming.  They were excited to know that that is an easier way to review, select, track, report on, and improve the granting process and there was particular excitement over the affordability of the system.  We love to hear this feedback!

We also divulged a few details on our soon-to-be-released BlackCat Rail Management System.  BCR is a rail crossing inventory program that is accessible by state DOTS, railroads and the FRA.  More details will be released soon! 999

We are also excited for a little more time on the road.  We'll be at SASHTO in Nashville, SCORT in Charlotte, AASAHTO in Detroit, and FPTA in Tampa.  We'd love to meet you if you will be there, too!

The Panther Team Goes to Space School

At the end of each year our whole team gets together for a day of fun.  The rules are that we all must agree on the activity, it has to be something that keeps us all together, and we have to be able to get there and back in one day.  This year, we chose the Astronaut Training Experience at the Kennedy Space Center.  We flew simulated space shuttles, spun in circles to get an idea of what G-force feels like, and floated from harnesses to simulate weightlessness.  See some of our pictures below.
