Revecorp has two divisions, the original Research Division focued on vehicle safety, emissions, electronics, and inspection programs and an Information Technology Division. These overlap in management of vehicle inspection data, vehicle inspection software and vehicle data tools. The Information Technology Division specializes in the fast and efficient development of handheld tools which can gather data in the field, and report it in real time to a database allowing staff to analyze data via a simple web based portal. We have designed/implemented/and maintained cloud-based data systems for a wide variety of governmental and commercial clients. Revecorp has developed tablet based vehicle On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) testing solutions in use in vehicle inspection programs, vehicle inspection databases (VIDs), vehicle pre-trip, post-trip and maintenance safety inspection automation software, TransitCheck, a commercial product sold to fleet operators, school bus operators, transit operators, etc., which improves overall safety and reduces costs, TransitLock which is hardware used by fleets to prevent vehicle theft and control vehicle operation. Revecorp provides a vehicle information number (VIN) decoding solution (VINterpreter) that is in use in US vehicle inspection programs, is used by law enforcement which can provide detailed vehicle information and vehicle recall data.The Research Division provides vehicle safety and emissions research services, including expert witness services to clients in vehicle technology cases. We have worked on vehicle inspection technology patent cases, and cases involving several vehicle manufacturers related to emissions and fuel economy. Revecorp is working with several states and jurisdictions on improvement of vehicle safety and or emissions inspection programs, acceptance testing of equipment and program implementations.

Rocklin Ca

Developing products for vehicle emissions testing, equipment testing, aviation, and research and development. Please see https://www.scantool.net/ready-or-not-test-tool-scan-tool/.

Sacramento Ca

Managed a group of engineers specializing in assisting government agencies and private companies in developing vehicle emissions reduction programs. Worked on the majority of vehicle inspection programs in the US in one form or another. Performed numerous studies for governmental agencies and authored draft guidance documents for the US EPA.

El Monte Ca

Work focus was on assisting environmental agencies in Hong Kong, China, Korea and Singapore to develop vehicle emissions programs to assist sales of vehicle emissions testing equipment in the area. Also performed a research study for CARB related to in-use emissions testing of heavy duty diesel vehicles. Extensive work related to diesel vehicle emissions testing technology and measurement.

Pasadena Ca

Performed the initial studies in CA which lead to the adoption of the ASM test as the emissions test used in CA and then adopted in many other states. Performed numerous research studies on vehicle emissions including a pilot vehilce "scrap" program (like the recent "cash for Clunkers" program), catalyst replacement study, etc. Was the technical manager for the CA Smog Check Referee Program for Parsons.

North Hollywood, Ca

Performed research under contract to Ford Motor Company, the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the Coordinating Research Council related to the impacts of computer controls on vehicle emissions rates. Studied off-cycle (open-loop) emissions where vehicles operated differently outside of certification type conditions, as commanded by on board computers, which lead to higher emissions than during certification tests. This in turn lead to the development of a revised vehicle emissions certification test.
