StacoSwitch Evolves to a Full-Service Kiosk Solutions Provider

Costa Mesa, CA, April 04, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Self-service kiosks have become an established tool in enhancing customer service, reducing costs, and improving productivity for a variety of industries. With kiosks becoming more popular, companies are requiring full-service kiosk suppliers. StacoSwitch, known for dependable aircraft and mil-spec switches for almost half a century, has announced they will add kiosk manufacturing and integration to their product line providing a turnkey hardware solution for customers.

StacoSwitch has primarily supplied lighted pushbutton display switches and indicators, keyboards, and other data entry products to demanding markets such as the U.S. military, aerospace, and law enforcement for over 45 years. Their long history of engineering and manufacturing high-reliability electronics and hardware products provides them with insight into the importance of uptime and dependability, one of the most vexing problems in the kiosk industry.

Many industry experts believe that a single down kiosk can turn customers off forever. Long downtimes leave customers with negative impressions that can adversely affect revenue. “We understand that high uptime reduces cost and significantly increases ROI. A kiosk needs to be up and running when a user approaches it,” says Kevin Judd, VP of Marketing at StacoSwitch. “We plan to capitalize on our experience and expertise in high-reliability markets to supply superior kiosk solutions.”

StacoSwitch is leveraging their engineering strengths in supplying complete kiosk project management and is focusing their expertise on the self-service market. With solutions ranging from custom is now manufacturing to off-the-shelf designs as well as hardware integration, professional installation, and technical support. Customers can also look to StacoSwitch for software implementation design. “We are able to assist people with choosing the right software package, integrate it with the right hardware components, and deliver a complete solution,” Judd says.

StacoSwitch’s design team has been vital in offering these new services. They have worked with customers to blend their needs with cost conscious design for manufacturability as well as industrial design. Two engineers with a history of designing and manufacturing kiosk enclosures have recently been added to the team as well as an experienced regional sales manager with a background in kiosk operations. With these resources in kiosk manufacturing, StacoSwitch has been able to offer customers form and functionality while focusing on the typical components required for interactive, self-service transactions.
