Abstract Following the detection of a new Galactic center transient in our new series of INTEGRAL Galactic bulge monitoring observations (ATEL #1005), we obtained a short pointing with the XRT aboard Swift to improve significantly on the source position of this transient. This observation was performed on 16-17 Feb 2007 from 21:39 to 00:37 UT for a total on-source time of nearly 4 ksec.
