Tactical Solution Partners Announces Two New Contract Awards
2006-02-27 10:09 ET - News Release
GLEN BURNIE, Md., Feb. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tactical Solution Partners, Inc. ("TSPI") announced today that it has received two contract awards representing over $1 million of revenue from Anne Arundel County, Maryland through its Pelican Mobile operating platform.
TSPI Law Enforcement Options Group develops and delivers integrated, interoperable, feature-rich, rugged "office-in-the-car" mobile communication solutions that enable public safety personnel -- police, fire, and emergency medical services (EMS) -- to obtain and exchange vital information in real- time. This information can include National Crime Information Center (NCIC) data, DMV records, medical records, warrant information, and routing instructions. As clearly evidenced in all recent national emergencies, the rapid dissemination of real-time information is critical to determine and assure timely and precise resource allocation by public sector decision makers. More importantly, timely, accurate data in the field can be the difference between life and death.
Public safety workers are true mobile road warriors. Police, fire, and EMS personnel do most of their work in the field and correspondingly have unique needs that must be addressed by their mobile communication systems. Primary among these needs are ruggedness, reliability and quality. In the mobile public safety environment, communication systems must be able to work in extreme environments that include high levels of vibration and shock, wide temperature ranges, varying humidity, electromagnetic interference and voltage and current transients. Public safety workers need to be confident that their mobile communication systems will support them in all situations and scenarios and provide the optimum level of functionality, throughput and coverage. TSPI's rugged mobile communication solutions arm public safety workers with timely, accurate information and deliver the unique functionality and requirements that enable public safety workers to effectively respond to emergencies more safely and proactively.
The contracts from Anne Arundel County Police and Fire Departments require TSPI to equip over 500 first responder vehicles with its rugged "office-in- the-car" mobile communication solutions uniquely customized to the county's specifications. TSPI will enable Anne Arundel County police officers and fire department personnel to access and exchange vital information in real-time leading to safer, more proactive and effective emergency response.
Contract awards received from Anne Arundel County represent over $1 million of revenue for 2006.
"Anne Arundel County is an important customer relationship for TSPI for numerous reasons, including the county's size, population growth, central location between Baltimore and Washington, and that it is home to our Pelican Mobile offices and corporate headquarters," stated Charley Wall, TSPI's Chief Executive Officer. "We are proud to play our part to support Anne Arundel County's relentless commitment to provide its nearly 500,000 residents with a safe environment to live and work."
