New Products
We manufacture special purpose trailers, and other similar equipment increasing public safety and security. OMJC equipment helps mitigate and manage some of lifes’ disruptions and problems. Our “Port-a-Mast™” line of equipment provides mobile solutions through deployments of sophisticated technology. We integrate mobile solar, mobile no maintenance battery power, mobile wireless communications, and mobile portable masts. Our present systems include portable traffic signals, mobile surveillance systems, portable congestion management systems; portable camera mounts on car masts, mobile vehicular count classify trailers and mobile sensors for air quality sampling. Through modular design, we tailor our skills and products to provide real life solutions to our
customers.
Our New and Used/Reconditioned Inventory
Our broad inventory of traffic and some street lighting equipment means that you can get quick shipment, from big poles to small controller repair parts. Our in-stock traffic inventory ranges from the 1940s and ‘50s vintage to today’s equipment that is a mere “generation” old, such as menu driven NEMA type control equipment. We can provide everything from small electrical contacts to complete intersections. Our used refurbished cabinets can go out with new powder coat finishes and look like new. We can also provide the equipment for flashing intersections or school zone signals all at a significant savings. We stock used hot dip galvanized traffic and street lighting poles. We have access to much more than what we stock, but limit inventory to items that move. We often are disheartened by our inability to remarket much of the roadway equipment that is made available to us.
History
Our goal has been from the beginning to sell guaranteed quality used reconditioned traffic signal and related equipment into the government equipment sector. One of our goals was to help government agencies to maintain their infrastructure equipment. With over 25 years of experience one of our themes has been advocating the use of “Appropriate Technology”. We have been a “Recycler” from the beginning and still are today. We have practiced “green” before it was popular, from our company inception. Our history dates back to 1985 when OMJC Signal Salvage was started. It was the first business in the US to supply recycled and reconditioned traffic signal equipment. In January 1991 we changed our name and incorporated under the new name of OMJC Signal, Inc. Historically OMJC has marketed throughout the US and other countries where 120VAC 60 Hz line power is used.
Our Customers
Our customers include cities, county governments, traffic signal companies, electrical and general contractors, from all over the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and some countries in South America. We also have worked with other companies in developing and supplying equipment into niche markets using our diverse products.
Our customers appreciate our guarantee and our ability to sometimes help them out of a “squeeze”. In our reconditioned equipment we supply to niche markets that find us to satisfy tight budgets, desperate need for hard to find parts, and allow them to keep their infrastructures operating. Our Future
There are several big factors affecting where we hope to travel. Maybe you would enjoy knowing our goals. The national road infrastructure desperately needing routine maintenance compounded with the government shortage of labor & funds, the attempts to safeguard the roadway work zone, the energy crisis, the high demand for security products and “the great supplier relationships we have”, will all drive where we will be in days ahead. |
We will attempt to address ways to increase safety for the workers and drivers in the roadway work zone. We will attempt to improve security for mobile outdoor locations. We will also continue to be a supplier to other manufactures that benefit from our “PortaMast Line™” products for use with their products and applications. Certainly our battery and solar expertise will let us capitalize upon the alternative energy markets. We will continue to practice recycling and energy conservation as best we can. Largely we live in a “new is better” society and combined with high overhead and labor costs preclude its natural practice.

Our Name: OMJC Signal, Inc.
The OMJC stands for Our Master Jesus Christ and is taken from the Old Testament story of the indentured servant that was set free, only to have him return to his master and ask if he could remain his servant forever. Since Arlen went through his Christian conversion (repenting of his sin and trusting Christ for deliverance from its penalty), he has wanted to honor the only master worthy of anyone’s life and service. Out of gratitude for experiencing the benefits of being “set free from his sin”, Arlen wanted to serve his new found Master with his life. It changed him so much that he wanted to let others know what Christ could do for them. Because of the profound impact on his life of converting to a Christ follower and being delivered from the short and long term damage and judgment of sin, he named the business with initials OMJC standing for “Our Master Jesus Christ”. If you have questions, e-mail Arlen at sales@omjcsignal.com. Read 1John 5:10-12 of the Bible. |
