Westminster Selected to Provide Advanced Surveillance Equipment
to Middle East Client valued at over $900k
Westminster Group Plc ('Westminster' or the 'Group'), the AIM listed supplier of system solutions and products to the security, defence, fire protection and safety markets worldwide, is pleased to announce that it has been selected to provide advanced surveillance equipment to a Middle East Government valued at over $900,000 USD.
Revenue in relation to this project is expected to be recognised during the current financial year.
Westminster was selected for this project following several months of negotiations during which Westminster demonstrated a good understanding of the issues involved and was able to advise on the best solutions available.
The advanced surveillance equipment involved in this project will enable state security services to monitor criminal and terrorist activities, obtain intelligence on such activities and thereby assist in thwarting potential crime and acts of terrorism.
Further information is restricted due to the classified nature of the project.
Commenting on the contract award Peter Fowler, Chief Executive of Westminster Group, said:
"I am delighted to be able to announce yet another project award from a new Middle East client following on from other recent and significant contract wins so far in 2012. The range, frequency and geographical spread of our contract wins over the past few months is a testament to our growing international reach and reputation."
