With the support of Tri-Ed in these regions, Matrix Systems will be able to tap into Tri-Ed’s broad array of solutions and services to deliver comprehensive project deliverables and robust service and support, the companies stated.

“Tri-Ed’s broad product portfolio focused on physical security and emerging technologies makes us well-positioned to assist Matrix Systems with their integration, support and training needs,” said Pat Comunale, president and chief executive officer, Tri-Ed. “This new relationship will enable Matrix Systems to further enhance their business by providing them access to unique products that drive greater opportunity for growth.”

They will work closely with our team to provide the training and support, and the industry knowledge that is critical in today’s rapidly changing security technology market.”
