| Egg Harbor Township, N.J., — Feb.
9, 2004 — A team of industry experts led by Robert Grossman, former Director
of Technical Services at American Dynamics (a unit of Tyco Int’l), and Vice
President of Technical Services at Vicon Industries Inc. (AMEX: VII), today
announced the formation of R. Grossman and Associates, Inc. (RG&A), a
privately funded company headquartered in New Jersey.
With extensive experience in electronic security products and projects,
R. Grossman & Associates promotes a results-oriented approach to systems
design, project management, product testing and analysis. Differentiating
itself from other consultant firms in the industry that focus primarily on
designing and managing projects, R. Grossman & Associates provides a
complete “cradle to grave” solution that includes everything from project
design and management to product line strategy, marketability analysis,
marketing and collateral development.
According to research data from J.P. Freeman and Co., the market for
integrated security systems is expected to grow more than 20 percent
annually, while smaller systems within this market represent the area of
greatest growth. R. Grossman & Associates is uniquely positioned to assist
companies, large or small, that may be unprepared for such rapid growth.
“We have a perspective on complex security projects that many consultants
can’t share,” says Robert Grossman, founder of RG&A. “We’ve collectively
spent time at all ends of the supply chain — as end users, integrators,
installers, designers, and in manufacturing and product development. This
gives us a tremendous range of experience in the trenches putting all of the
intricate pieces of a security project together. The knowledge that comes
with that simply cannot be duplicated.”
The services offered by RG&A are not a “one size fits all” portfolio.
Grossman intends to customize his company’s services by carefully listening
to each customer.
“Our goal is not to develop our own ‘model’,” Grossman asserts. “No two
companies or two products are the same, so our goal is to listen carefully
and help each customer develop clear plans that are easily executable and
profitable.” |
