What Precision Traffic & Safety Systems does

Precision Traffic and Safety Systems, LLC is a privately held value-added reseller and systems integrator headquartered in Lenoir City, Tennessee, that supplies products and solutions for intersection management, traffic communications, and road safety to state and municipal transportation departments in the Southeastern United States. The company was founded in 2011 and operates with 1-10 employees, serving as a regional channel partner for multiple third-party ITS vendors. Its product portfolio spans nine core lines and two add-on lines, including traffic controllers and central management software (Trafficware by Cubic ATMS.now), Ethernet and fiber communications (Actelis, AMG, ComNet, Microhard, RuggedCom, Teleste), video detection (Gridsmart), wireless detection (Sensys Networks), LED signal heads and roadway lighting (GE Current), battery back-up (UltraPower Stealth), and emergency vehicle preemption (Tomar). Notably, the company holds an exclusive distribution agreement with PSI Acquisition for the UltraPower Stealth battery back-up system, positioning it as a single-source channel for that product line in NEMA and 2070 cabinet deployments.

The company's business model is direct enterprise sales to government transportation authorities (city, county, and state DOTs), with pricing provided on a quote basis rather than published. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and there is no record of external funding, institutional investment, or acquisition activity. Customer engagement is demonstrated by an exclusive three-year contract won in 2014 with the City of Knoxville, Tennessee, for traffic controller supply, and by active participation in industry events (ITE, ITS America, ITS World Congress, ITS Tennessee). Marketing presence is modest—corporate website, blog, LinkedIn, X, and email newsletters—appropriate for a niche B2G distributor. The company has no disclosed patents, certifications, or proprietary technology, and no API or software platform of its own; its competitive position rests on the breadth of its multi-vendor portfolio, exclusive distribution rights on select SKUs, and regional relationships in the Southeastern US ITS market.
