BURNABY, BC--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Viscount Systems (OTCQB:VSYS), a leading-edge supplier of security systems and software, announced that it has been awarded contracts to deploy its Freedom, Liberty and MESH access control technologies at a series of projects for one of Canada’s largest municipalities. These contracts are for up to 400 facilities to be installed over the next several years. If the municipality continues with a full deployment the value of the project will be approx. $2M.
“After completing a series of initial installations we are happy to see that the municipality has decided to expand and accelerate this project,” noted Stephen Pineau, President and CEO of Viscount. “Our unique ability to wrap intercom systems and access control management in a single software platform helped drive these sales. With Freedom we continue to move from single site projects to Enterprise wide systems and this will continue to drive revenue for the coming years.”
