06 Oct PMT Security Announces Acquisition of Quest Security Solutions
PMT Security is pleased to announce its latest strategic move – the acquisition of Quest Security Solutions.
Quest Security Solutions, a well-established electronic security integrator, has been operating successfully within various sectors including commercial, educational, industrial, and central infrastructure across both Australia and New Zealand.
Effective immediately, this acquisition marks an exciting development as Quest Security Solutions integrates into the PMT Security family. All existing assets, staff, and management structures will transition seamlessly under the PMT Security banner.
Both entities bring a wealth of complementary security products, services, and integrations, each with its own distinct area of specialization. Quest Security caters to diverse sectors such as mining, public sector, and private education, while PMT Security focuses its expertise on national retailers, commercial real estate, and correctional facilities.
Darren Taylor, Managing Director of PMT Security, expressed his enthusiasm regarding this acquisition, stating, “We are very excited to announce the acquisition of Quest Security, and feel that the two companies have a great deal of positive synergies that will serve to enhance what both can offer our customers. The move also brings a larger pool of resources and talent to the table, enabling us to continue serving our customers regardless of their needs. We have the size, resources, and experience to provide for any size of organisation, but pride ourselves on still offering the personal touch of a much smaller company. Quest has a very similar, customer-first mentality which fits perfectly into our ethos.”
Quest Security Solutions will gradually consolidate its operations, closing its Belrose offices during September, and merging resources with PMT Security’s Seven Hills premises and other locations.
Peter Quinlan, Managing Director at Quest Security Solutions, sees this integration as a harmonious fit, stating, “I see the PMT company culture being an ideal fit for my staff and customers. I have confidence that PMT will provide exceptional career opportunities for my staff, and continue to support Quest’s customers at the standards they are accustomed to. The depth and breadth of our two teams combined will set the grounds for sustainable growth in the verticals where Quest is already established, as well as net new verticals. We expect there to be no disruptions at all to our business, and from our customers’ point-of-view, it is very much business as usual.”
He added, “PMT is a technology-led business, and this deal gives our customers access to a wider array of smart, future-facing technologies. Our expert team is excited to be given a wider array of tools to deploy and a host of new opportunities to present to our customers.”
PMT Security, a wholly Australian-owned company, has established a reputation for delivering quality and customer service excellence in the realm of electronic and technology-based security. This acquisition further solidifies PMT Security’s position as an industry leader, continually pushing the boundaries of technological innovation while upholding their commitment to service excellence.
Moreover, this strategic acquisition results in an expanded distribution network for many existing vendor partners of both PMT Security and Quest Security Solutions.
