Toll management service provider HTA Holdings, Inc. has acquired Violation Management Services (VMS), which provides violation resolution services for fleets and the rental car industry.
The Highway Toll Administration LLC (HTA), HTA Holdings’ subsidiary toll management company, provides turnkey solutions for rental car companies. The addition of VMS’ services, which address such non-toll violations as speeding, parking, and other traffic infractions, will be utilized to complement HTA’s toll-related offerings to provide a comprehensive product suite for fleet owners and rental car companies, the company has announced.
The integration of the two companies is complete, including the renaming of the acquired company to Violation Management Solutions. The acquisition of VMS was finalized in May.
“I am excited to see VMS move to the next stage of its evolution and growth,” said VMS founder and president Dennis Round. “The resources that HTA brings to our business will enable the newly combined company to efficiently accelerate the development of new solutions surrounding tolling services and traffic violations. I am excited to be part of this growth and look forward to playing a key role in expanding our business going forward.”
Both Violation Management Solutions, a Montana-based company, and Highway Toll Administration are wholly owned subsidiaries of HTA Holdings, Inc.
