The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has awarded a contract to SysTech International, LLC to design, implement and operate the State of Idaho vehicle emission inspection program. The program will first be extended to Canyon County and the city of Kuna, Idaho. Other Counties may be included at a later date. The new contract requires that SysTech partners with twenty-two (22) local businesses as subcontractors and provides each one with a SysTech computerized emission inspection analyzer. SysTech will also provide a central computer Vehicle Inspection Database (VID) that will network the inspection stations, the DEQ and the Idaho Transportation Department for motor vehicle registration enforcement. Other services that SysTech will provide include: vehicle inspector training and licensing; consumer waiver and referee service; station auditing; public information and education; and a customer service call center.

"The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) completed a rigorous Request For Proposal (RFP) process for a contractor to plan and implement a turnkey basic vehicle emission testing program in Canyon County and Kuna Idaho." said Pete Wagner, Regional Administrator of the DEQ. "DEQ selected SysTech International, LLC because of their price, convenient testing locations for our citizens, and their expertise."

SysTech will manufacture and deliver the emission inspection equipment and begin all program operations in the initial program area on June 1, 2010. Approximately 65,000 vehicle inspections will be performed each year in the new biennial program. The contract allows for neighboring Ada County (appr. 120,000 annual inspections) and any other Counties that do not meet EPA air quality limits to join the program in the future.

"We are grateful that the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality has chosen SysTech to be the State of Idaho vehicle inspection program manager." said Lothar Geilen, CEO of SysTech. "This win continues to demonstrate that SysTech provides our government customers with the best service offerings in the industry. We will provide DEQ with a complete, professionally managed vehicle inspection program that is convenient to the public."

The initial contract period is five years. Under the contract, SysTech will collect $10-11 per inspection and remit a portion to DEQ and the inspection station subcontractors.
