Securadyne Systems Earns SDM'S 2016 Systems Integrator of the Year
As a new entrant to the market in 2011 Securadyne Systems saw an opportunity to build something different, fill an existing “gap” in the market, and create a company that would be both unfailingly consistent in its focus and forward-thinking in its approach. Just five years on these efforts have earned it SDM’s 2016 Systems Integrator of the Year award.
Imagine what you would do if you had the opportunity to create your ideal security integration company from scratch. This was both the challenge and opportunity facing Carey Boethel when he left his position at a large international integrator with nothing but a business plan and ambition. The concept was to create a best-in-class nationwide security systems integration firm aimed at the “middle market gap.”
Boethel saw a marketplace that was highly fragmented, characterized by hundreds of small independent companies and a few large, multinational providers — but not much in between. “This forces customers to choose between the lesser of two evils: do business with one of the few, very large providers who sometimes struggle with innovation and consistency; or do business with numerous small integrators who typically provide great service but struggle with the scale and therefore necessitate multiple vendor relationships,” Boethel says.
