JACO

What JACO does

JACO is a brand of medical-grade mobile and wall-mounted workstation solutions operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of GCX Corporation, a privately held company founded in 1971 and headquartered in Sonoma, California. JACO designs and manufactures the EVO family of mobile workstation carts (EVO Carts, EVO SE Carts, EVO Lite Carts), EVO Wall Arms, EVO Wall Stations, and PerfectView Tablet and TV Carts, with supporting software under the METRIQ brand for fleet asset management and an integrated Lilitab tablet enclosure line. The products target point-of-care clinical documentation, patient monitoring, medication administration, telehealth consultations, and labor and delivery workflows across acute care hospitals and specialty care areas, and are additionally embedded into medical devices through OEM partnerships with 400+ manufacturers including GE Healthcare, Philips, Medtronic, Edwards Lifesciences, Masimo, Dräger, Spacelabs, Mindray, Nihon Kohden, and Fukuda Denshi.

The technology foundation centers on configurable, infection-control-friendly medical-grade hardware featuring gas-spring variable height adjustment (16 inches of sit-to-stand travel), over 80% integrated cable concealment, dual-monitor support, and secure anti-theft mounting, all manufactured under ISO 13485 quality systems. METRIQ fleet management software extends the hardware base with recurring-revenue tracking and lifecycle management for deployed cart fleets across healthcare organizations. The tablet enclosure capability, added through the Lilitab acquisition, rounds out a complete tablet deployment offering for clinical mobility.

JACO monetizes primarily through one-time capital equipment sales of workstations to healthcare facilities and OEM partners, supplemented by recurring METRIQ software subscriptions, replacement parts and accessories, and on-site installation and audit services. The go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales for large healthcare deployments, an OEM-embedded channel through 400+ medical device manufacturers, and a dealer/reseller network with deal registration. Operations span the Americas, EMEA (Netherlands), and APAC (Taiwan), supporting global standardized fleet rollouts across multi-facility health systems.
