I moved into sales when I stumble across this incredible product called QoinI never thought I would be doing sales after my long career in engineering and business management. I am still involved as a business owner of property managements rights and two F45 Training studios. This opportunity is a pleasant addition to my life and it stimulates some new neurons in my brain.Qoin is an alternative digital currency that is unique in how it has intrinsic value based on merchant services and goods. Qoin is building the largest shopping community where buyers and sellers are empowered (online and on-site ) without having a third party making a continuous profit on every transaction. We as humans evolved through more than 5000 years in finding an independent and fee-free way to manage to barter. Only after 10 years of concept proof of Bitcoin, there is, the most modern technology called bock chain that is simple to use, secure, safe, fast and once launched it is independent of any third party. You may agree that it is extremely unlikely for any human force in the world to stop such a timely idea. With heart and mind in coherence, this step in my life, at my age, is obvious intent for greater gratitude and joy. I have confidence and trust in Qoin. Qoin have almost 30 years history with the implementation of an alternative currency. There is a vast amount of energy put behind this and I am proud to be part of it since it is not all about the individual but it supports the local community in the way it is implemented to provide a boost or even a jump-start of any business that wants to get back on track after COVID. Qoin value and principles are clearly visible when you realise everyone is a winner when they come onboard. It is so different to the common distribution of power to only a few. I am now an accredited Qoin Agent to assist businesses to become providers of services and goods in the Qoin eco-system. I Will be happy to help, contact tj.botha@qoin.world.

I moved into this new role in the engineering division after developing the scope of work for a new ITS solution to manage the system roll-out of this and other new ITS projects for Queensland Motorways. The initial baseline ITS project includes the installation of new civil and electrical constructions to allow the integration and commission of digital Close Circuit TV (CCTV), Variable Message signs (VMS), PLCs and Vehicle Detectors into the TMC operations through the STREAMS and Omnicast operational software used at Queensland motorways. The project includes the provision of a licences Wireless backbone using 18 and 22 Ghz with unlicened 5.8 Ghz edge connection to the field devices. Groundbreaking digital compression are used to communicate the digital video over the wireless network back to the Traffic Management Centre with remarkable video HD quality. This accomplishment is unique in systems for Transport Mains Road (TMR). Commissioning and Acceptance testing, new technology evaluation, system integration, document review, contractor management, site scoping, development of new test procedures, network integration is include in my responsibility for this baseline project.Special accomplishments in this role are:- the system architect of a trial project with some of the latest and exciting Vehicle detection technologies available on the market such as Radar, TIRTL, Sensys Wireless STUDS and also the latest evolving video analytics which provides incident detection.- development of a new naming convention and standard for all ITS products with endorsement from TMR for use at Queensland Motorways. This convention brings a standard across multiple systems such as STREAMS, Asset Management System (AMIS), Omnicast, Operations at our TMC, Maintenance Service contractors and more .
