Contigo Announces New Security Company Partner
Orion Security Services Selects Contigo As Its Mobile Monitoring Provider
VANCOUVER, BC (December 3, 2007) – Contigo, the leading provider of turn-key GPS solutions for asset tracking, fleet management and personal safety, is pleased to announce that Orion Security Services has selected Contigo as its exclusive mobile monitoring provider.
Orion CEO, Bill Schmitt sees mobile monitoring as part of the evolution of the personnel security industry. “Private security is changing today and now goes beyond the use of security guards. GPS-based mobile monitoring for personnel protection is an emerging high-growth segment,” says Schmitt. “Contigo’s GPS-based security solutions will allow us to provide our clients with additional protection and peace of mind. Due to the high risk nature of the security services our clients request, and the breadth of solutions available on their platform, Contigo was a natural choice as a partner.”
John Tedesco, CEO of Contigo commented, “We are pleased to offer GPS-based mobile monitoring services through our partnership with Orion. Orion has demonstrated its leadership and vision as one of the largest coordinators of law enforcement officers for the escort, pickup, delivery and transport of high value items. Orion has impressive nationwide contacts with commissioned law enforcement officers that work for local, county and federal agencies. Orion’s strong contacts, coupled with their leadership position in the private security sector make them an ideal partner.”
