Winland Electronics has announced that Xata Corp. has increased its purchase commitments to Winland by $3.3 million. The $3.3 million increase is anticipated to be consumed by the end of this year.
“This significant order follows the original $4.5 million purchase order we received from Xata Corporation in September of 2005,” says Lorin Krueger, chief executive officer of Mankato, Minn.-based Winland. “We have a multi-year agreement with Xata and look forward to being a part of their long-term growth.”
Winland manufactures products utilized in Xata’s onboard GPS tracking and wireless communications system marketed to the fleet trucking industry.
“Our supply partners are a vital component in achieving continued growth as well as supplying quality products to our customers,” says Peter Thayer, chief technology officer of Minneapolis-based Xata. “We look forward to a continuation of our relationship with Winland.”
