RSS2236 TÜV Rheinland, a global specialist in independent testing, inspection, certification, and consulting services, has announced Suzanne Murtha’s appointment as business development manager for its ITS group. In her new role, Murtha will develop and manage TÜV Rheinland’s North American consulting, assessment, analysis, verification, validation, testing and certification of ITS components and systems.

A fifteen-year veteran of ITS, Murtha comes to TÜV Rheinland from 4984 Kapsch TrafficCom of Washington D.C., where she served as principal associate for government relations and business development. Previously, she had been the director of vehicle safety systems for 560 ITS America. She also has related experience with Strategy Analytics in, Providate Automotive, Standard & Poors DRI, and PriceWaterhouse Coopers. She earned a B.A. from Villanova University, and will be headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia.

“Heavy traffic and gridlock are commonplace the world-over,” said Murtha. “Intelligent toll systems, telematics and other technologies can minimise congestion and keep traffic flowing, offering significant economic and ecological rewards in return. It is our intention to help automotive manufacturers, government agencies, equipment producers, system integrators and others involved with intelligent transportation systems deliver these benefits.”
