INTEGRATED
SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC.ANNOUNCES MARKETING
AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT WITH GPS STANDARD
Irving, Texas – September 27, 2005 – Integrated
Security Systems, Inc. (ISSI), (OTCBB Symbol: IZZI), a leading
manufacturer and provider of homeland security related products,
including anti-terrorist barriers and perimeter security
technology, today announced that it’s wholly owned
subsidiary, B&B ARMR Corporation has reached an agreement
with GPS, an Ivrea, Italy based security firm, to market
and exclusively distribute the complete range of GPS invisible
perimeter security technology to the North American market. B&B
ARMR will sell the GPS buried detection system as part of
a total perimeter security solution to complement its industry
leading line of anti-terrorist gates and barriers.
The GPS system is an intelligent and unobtrusive solution
that can be used in a wide variety of threat vulnerable projects,
from nuclear power stations, airports, petro-chemical and
government complexes and banks to museums and other facilities
that have the need for invisible perimeter detection. GPS
Perimeter Systems has been selling the invisible GPS systems
for over 25 years in Europe to highly prestigious and sensitive
security installations.
“We see the need for inconspicuous high security technology
as important as the integrity of the solution itself,” stated
Peter Beare, Chief Executive Officer of B&B ARMR. “With
the sophistication quotient of terrorists increasing, the
ability to provide effective and undetectable perimeter protection
is essential. The GPS technology represents a major
step forward in this strategy.”
The companies plan to offer the GPS buried detection system
in combination with fixed and portable anti-terrorist barriers
by B&B ARMR, in conjunction with monitoring consoles
and access control technology by the Intelli-Site and DoorTek
divisions of ISSI in integral project specific packages. The
GPS system provides positive and virtual error free detection
of intruders that will then provide network signals to initiate
positive protection, such as deployment of barriers and initiation
of CCTV recording to the points on incidence.
“The well established system integration channels
of B&B ARMR will serve as a ready outlet for our security
portals,” stated Tommie Tommaselli, Vice President
of Sales and Marketing for GPS. “We look forward
to working with a company that is already a recognized leader
in the homeland security and anti-terrorist efforts is an
important step in bringing our technology to the North American
market.”
The agreement is focused on the North American market, but
the parties have also agreed to a unique relationship in
the Middle East, borrowing on the B&B ARMR partnerships
already established there.
