Jeff Montoya has joined DMP as the regional sales manager for X1 West. He will provide ongoing service and support to DMP dealers throughout the western United States as well as the Central and Lower Midwest, specifically focusing on X1 products. The X1 Series is a cloud-based access control system with simple installation and locally stored programming.

Additionally, Brad Heckert has joined DMP as the director of sales, West. He will direct and support the regional sales managers in the Northwest, Southwest, Northern California, Central California, Los Angeles and Southern California territories.

“It’s an honor to join the DMP family which has such a rich history and a high level of respect in our industry,” said Montoya. “It’s a pleasure to be part of that legacy. I’ve worked with DMP products in my many years of being in the industry and have found them to be second to none in features and quality, along with an incredible support structure from sales, customer service and technical support. My goal is to continue the legacy that DMP has set forth.”

Montoya is a sales executive with over 25 years of experience in security systems integration, distribution and manufacturing. He’s primarily served in the video surveillance, access control and Cloud/SaaS solution markets. DMP said his extensive experience with national account level clients and strategic project coordination make him well-suited to provide exceptional service to DMP dealers.

“I’m excited about the opportunity to grow with DMP and help to advance the industry and protect the community,” said Heckert. “You never know when or how what you do will have an impact and protect someone you know and care for.”

Heckert joins DMP as part of a new sales management initiative that restructured territories to elevate the personalized service to dealers. He has over 20 years of experience in the security industry in numerous roles, from installer technician to service and sales management. Heckert has a master’s in organizational leadership and most recently worked at Convergint. His expertise is in developing strategies and goals for high-performing teams., according to the announcement.
