WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J. and DUSSELDORF, Germany, 2012-05-30 15:00 CEST (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- I.D. Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:IDSY), a leading provider of wireless
solutions for securing, tracking and managing high-value enterprise assets, has
received a series of follow-on purchase orders from Audi AG to expand
deployment of I.D. Systems' PowerFleet(TM) Vehicle Management System on industrial
trucks at Audi's flagship manufacturing plant in Ingolstadt, Germany. 

The Audi Group, one of the world's leading manufacturers of premium cars,
including the Audi and Lamborghini brands, is a fully-owned subsidiary of
Volkswagen AG, Europe's largest auto maker. In 2011, Audi sold more than 1.3
million vehicles, generating revenue of EUR44.1 billion. 

Wireless Vehicle Management Systems (VMS) help improve supply chain
productivity by establishing accountability for the use of industrial trucks,
such as forklifts, ensuring equipment is in the proper place at the right time,
streamlining material handling work flow, and providing unique metrics on
vehicle utilization. A wireless VMS also helps reduce fleet maintenance costs
by automatically uploading vehicle data, reporting equipment problems
electronically, scheduling maintenance according to actual vehicle usage rather
than by calendar or manual data entry, and helping determine the optimal
economic time to replace equipment.  In addition, a wireless VMS helps improve
workplace safety and security by restricting vehicle access to trained,
authorized operators, providing electronic vehicle inspection checklists, and
sensing vehicle impacts. 

'We are gratified that Audi is again expanding its use of our VMS technology,'
said Alexander Glasmacher, I.D. Systems' Managing Director, EMEA (Europe,
Middle East, Africa). 'We see this expansion as a reflection of the ongoing
value that PowerFleet has for Audi in its efforts to make its material handling
operations safer, more cost-effective, and more productive.'
