BOCA RATON, Fla. — ADT Commercial announces it has purchased fire-, life-safety and security systems provider Edwards Electronic Systems, Inc., based out of Clayton and Concord, N.C.
The purchase of Edwards Electronic Systems further deepens the ADT Commercial organization’s integration capabilities and fire and life safety expertise to serve mid-market, national and large-scale commercial customers in the Carolinas region, according to the company.
“We’re excited to be expanding our premier organization and deepening our fire and life safety capabilities in the Carolinas region with the addition of Edwards Electronic Systems to ADT Commercial. This growth signifies the strength of ADT Commercial and reinforces our mission to be that ‘One Ideal Partner’ for our commercial customers across the country,” says Dan Bresingham, executive vice president, ADT.
For nearly 25 years, Edwards Electronic Systems has been a trusted installer and service provider of fire and life safety, security, video surveillance, access control, nurse call and mass notification systems for commercial, industrial, educational and healthcare facilities across the Carolinas, the announcement states.
“We’re very proud to be joining the ADT Commercial team, an organization we feel is completely aligned with our values to aim for customer service excellence at every turn. We look forward to continuing to offer our fire, life safety and security expertise to our customers in the Carolinas — now backed by the support and strength of a national company with a longstanding history in the industry,” says Michael Edwards, president, Edwards Electronic Systems.
This deal marks ADT Commercial’s first since acquiring Las Vegas-based SAFE Electronics Inc. in March. In July, the company announced it had assembled a team of prominent vertical market leaders to address the unique and complex needs of customers in energy & utilities, cannabis, cities, commercial real estate, healthcare, banking & financial institutions, and U.S.-based customers with an international presence.
