Mi-Co, the mobile data capture company, presented the 2002 User of the Year Award to Donald Smith, Utility Pretreatment Technician with the Town of Cary. Jim Clary, CEO of Mi-Co presented the award to Mr. Smith at the Awards Assembly of the Mi-Co '03 User Conference held in Research Triangle Park, NC.

In his presentation, Clary stated, "Working with clients like the Town of Cary and, in particular, users like Donald make our jobs at Mi-Co both fun and rewarding. Because Donald has both a solid understanding of the services being provided to meet the needs of the constituents and an outstanding grasp of the use of technology in meeting those needs, we listened carefully when Donald talked. Working with Donald made us aware that he is highly deserving of being named the Mi-Co User of the Year."

Smith was on the project team at the Town of Cary that implemented the Mi-Forms System for collecting data on control mechanisms that manage discharges into the sewer systems and oversees implementation of the fats, oils and greases control ordinance.

"Donald worked with us every step of the way in using the Mi-Forms Form Designer to build an electronic version of a previously structured paper form, testing the Mi-Forms Data Collector running on a Pocket PC, and providing Mi-Co personnel an extensive understanding of the types of data required in the system and the database structures currently used in the town's systems," said David Nakamura, Director of Quality Assurance and Technical Support at Mi-Co.
