What’s a business unit of a huge global company to do when demand for its products begins to surge? In January of 2015, ZKAccess transitioned into an independent company so it could better focus on its areas of specialty — access control.
ZKAccess began in 2012 as an access control-focused business unit of ZKTeco, a global developer of security and time management solutions. As demand increased, however, ZKTeco decided to spin ZKAccess into its own entity. As a result, ZKAccess LLC has expanded its sales and engineering teams and recently opened a new office in Fairfield, N.J., to accommodate its growing staff, warehouse and customer learning center. Larry Reed, long-time vice president of sales, was appointed CEO of ZKAccess, and biometrics industry veteran Manish Dalal was appointed COO and product manager.
