Pentagon Protection Plc
("Pentagon" or "The Company")
Major New Contract Secured
Pentagon Protection (AIM: PPR), the global specialist in the supply and installation of enhanced glass protection, announces that it has been awarded a significant turnkey contract by an overseas government with an initial value to Pentagon of up to £2 million.
The contract, which is expected to last a minimum of 24 months and commences immediately, is to install Pentagon's specialist retro-fit glass containment window film and anchoring system and window replacement at a significant number of the government's properties.
The properties receiving Pentagon's window security upgrades are located around the world and management of the project will be led by Alan Nicholl and his colleagues based in the UK.
This is the single largest contract in the Company's history and endorses the quality and competitiveness of the Pentagon services.
Alan Nicholl, Chairman of Pentagon Protection, commented:
"We have been working on this particular contract for many months and had to complete three stages of the tender process before the final decision. As we were competing with highly reputable international companies for this prestigious contract we are naturally delighted with this success.
"As one of the approved contractors to this overseas government, Pentagon also has the opportunity to tender for further physical security upgrades having already passed the initial pre-tender qualifications."
