Sprint has equipped Texas state tax collectors with wireless technology that has helped the state increase the collection of delinquent taxes by $13 million over the last 16 months.

Sprint PCS Connection Cards and wireless service allow the state’s tax-enforcement team mobile access for easy retrieval of information to collect taxes while in the field.

Specifically, Sprint wireless technology provides state field tax collectors with remote access to taxpayer information, coupled with the state’s Enforcement Wireless Computing (EWC) solution. Comptroller’s field staff also can document collection activity and print tax information using a wireless tablet computer, Sprint PCS Connection Card and portable printer. As a result, Sprint’s high-speed wireless technology helps field staff increase their field time and productivity to provide timelier taxpayer service and improve tax compliance.
