A telecommunications company from Ireland said Tuesday it will make Atlanta its U.S. headquarters and create a handful of technology jobs.

The company, which sells software applications to the public sector, will contract with the state government to make it more efficient, Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle said at a news conference in the Legislative Office Building.

TotalMobile, a subsidiary of Antrium, Ireland-based Consilium Technologies, will create 15 to 30 jobs within its first 18 months, said Garth Morton, senior vice president for TotalMobile's sales in North America.

It will open an office on Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta.

TotalMobile's applications will help improve the efficiency of inspections and repairs as well as allow workers to take photos and video, Morton said. The company has helped other agencies save between 10 percent and 25 percent in costs, Morton said.

He did not say how much Georgia's state government would be able to save.

"That is a conversation that is ongoing," Morton said.
