772 McCain and Transportation Control Systems (TCS) have have joined forces to deliver first-class traffic control products in the US south-east.

The agreement enables both companies to better meet the growing demand for intelligent transportation systems by making TCS the exclusive supplier of McCain’s traffic controllers, cabinets, signs, and software in Florida and the Caribbean. Through the recent acquisition of 6874 Quality Traffic Systems, another McCain distributor, TCS will also have distribution rights in Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Indiana.

“We’ve been impressed with McCain’s ability to continually augment their product offering to incorporate the latest technology and adhere to national standards,” said Transportation Control Systems president, Steven Gillis. “With products like the ATC eX controller and Transparity traffic management system, we are confident that McCain will meet our needs, and those of our customers, well into the future.”

“With common core values that put the customer first and a resolute commitment to product quality, McCain’s partnership with TCS enables us to better serve the market,” said Nathan Welch, director of sales at McCain. “TCS has a rich history and deep-rooted relationships in the region that will allow us to more quickly respond to customer needs.”
