AssetCo wins Northumbria Police contract
AssetCo plc (AIM:ASTO), the integrated support services company, is pleased to announce it has been awarded the vehicle conversions contract by the Northumbria Police Force.
The contract demonstrates AssetCo's ability to develop its business in all areas of the UK's emergency service market. The Company already provides a range of support services for the Fire and Ambulance Services.
AssetCo will provide complex integration services on a mixture of operational, traffic and covert vehicles. The integration plan includes state of the art DVR-camera systems assisting Northumbria Police with evidence gathering. The Company has worked closely with partner BMW Authorities to develop a 'no holes' installation system for vehicles used in delivering emergency services, the approach reduces trauma to vehicles as a result of the installation process, promotes greater residual values and improves conversion timescales. A number of the vehicles being provided are ballistically protected.
Steve Reeves, Sales and Marketing Director, commented:
'AssetCo continues to promote innovative design solutions that deliver value for money for Police, Fire and Ambulance clients. The investments made in training, design infrastructure, and quality manufacturing processes, provide critical service clients, such as Northumbria Police, with best in class solutions.'
