CLIFTON, N.J., Apr 13, 2007 (PrimeNewswire via COMTEX) --
Electronic Control Security, Inc. (OTCBB:EKCS) ("ECSI"), a leading provider
of electronic security system technologies and services to the government,
military and private sectors, today announced that it had received
notification of a subcontract award as an integral part of the Lockheed
Martin Warrior Shield Team. This Anti-Terrorism Force Protection initiative
is for U.S. naval bases worldwide.
The ATFP Procurement, Installation, and Maintenance-Multiple Award Contract
(PIM-MAC) program is designed to upgrade Naval installations with
anti-terrorism detection, assessment, tracking and response systems to
protect assets, personnel and equipment from the sort of terrorist threats
best illustrated by the USS Cole, Marine Barracks and embassy incidents. The
program will provide security enhancements including regional and local
command/control/response centers for worldwide naval installations.
ECSI's awards under the program are a result of the company's unique core
competency in the manufacture and support services for state of the art
multi-environment land sea and air perimeter intrusion detection systems. The
company's inclusion as an integral member of the winning teams is based on
ECSI's status as a qualified DoD Small Business subcontractor under the small
business set aside requirements of the program. Task orders are expected to
be issued during the first quarter of fiscal 2008, which begins October 1,
2007.
"ECSI's award under the ATFP PIM-MAC program is another step forward in
achieving our objectives," stated Arthur Barchenko, President and CEO. "We
will be operating as a subcontractor to our winning team partners which gives
us a significant portion of the award,. At this point it is premature to
quantify the expected size of the awards to ECSI over the full term of the
program, but we do look forward to making further announcements as we receive
the initial task orders for the program as it ramps up this summer."
