With acquisition, Zetron expands solutions,
services and development capabilities in mission critical
communications and homeland security systems markets
Zetron, a global leader in integrated mission critical
communications technology, announced today the acquisition of
GeoConex Corporation, a developer and integrator of Public Safety
and Homeland Security communications systems. The acquisition was
completed this week, with financial disclosures included in an
Australian Stock Exchange announcement made by Codan Limited
(ASX:CDA), Zetron’s publicly traded parent company.
GeoConex, a Zetron business partner since 2009, has grown to be
a leading reseller of Zetron communications systems. The company
also provides computer aided dispatch technology and services that
are core to Zetron’s command and control solutions portfolio.
GeoConex was originally founded in 2001, then purchased in 2007
by Craig Dotson and Ken Murphy, who have remained as the company’s
majority owners and chief operational executives since that time.
GeoConex is headquartered in Knoxville, TN (USA), with additional
offices and operations in Tennessee, Georgia and Oklahoma, and
sales and service coverage across North America.
“Joining Zetron is a great move for our company, employees,
partners, and most importantly, our customers,” said Craig Dotson,
CEO of GeoConex. “We’re looking forward to the many new
opportunities, benefits, and growth that will be realized from
bringing the respective resources of the two companies
together.”
With the acquisition, GeoConex becomes a wholly owned division
of Zetron, further solidifying and enhancing the collective
research and development, sales, and support synergies previously
realized through partnership. GeoConex customers will benefit from
direct access to a wider range of solutions and services, while
Zetron adds development, support, integration, and subject matter
expertise to its line of computer aided dispatch and related
solutions, which are integral to Zetron’s end-to-end platform of
mission critical communications.
“We are very pleased to officially welcome GeoConex into the
Zetron family,” said Scott French, President and Executive General
Manager of Zetron. “The longstanding collaborative partnership
between the two companies makes this a natural fit. By expanding
Zetron’s core solutions, services, and integration capabilities,
the acquisition will rapidly increase the value and flexibility we
can offer our collective mission critical communications
customers.”
Zetron has more than 300 employees worldwide, including
additions to its development, services, sales, support and
back-office teams as a result of the GeoConex acquisition. Zetron
is headquartered in Redmond, Washington (USA), with operations
throughout the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and
Australia to serve its growing global customer base in more than 80
countries around the world.
