QRO Contract Wins

Petards, the AIM quoted developer of advanced security, communication and surveillance systems, announces that its subsidiary, QRO Solutions (QRO), has received purchase orders totalling £0.5 million for the provision of ANPR equipment and support.

The first order, for £0.4 million, is from an existing police force customer in the north of England and is the first to be received under a previously announced four year framework contract. This order has two elements; the first is for the supply, installation and maintenance of NASBox roadside ANPR systems, and the second is for the supply of in-car Harrier Mini ANPR cameras.

The second order worth £0.1 million, is for a new overseas customer and is for the supply of ANPR equipment that will form part of the Government of Gibraltar's recently announced enhanced border security measures.

Both orders are scheduled to be delivered during the current financial year.

Raschid Abdullah, Chairman of Petards Group plc commented:

"We believe that these new contracts demonstrate the confidence that existing and new customers have in the ability of QRO's technologies to meet the exacting standards required for their high profile security and surveillance applications."
