The distributor CCTV Center is launching a new business division called Nexus Connect. According to the Buckinghamshire-based firm it offers a forward thinking ‘all inclusive’ alternative to traditional security industry distribution models.
Andy Coombes, Managing Director of Center Group, which owns CCTV Center, is pictured left with Robert Tate, right. Andy says: “In the modern world the security industry is rapidly converging with IT and the traditional model of routes to market has become inadequate. Systems are vastly more complex operating in a software driven environment. Traditional skills suited to the analogue world no longer apply.
“Our Nexus Connect concept is focused on delivery of systems that fully integrate visual security into fire, alarm and access control systems.
“The Nexus Connect model of business is a unique alliance of selected manufacturers – including SeeTec, Panasonic, Sony, JVC, FLIR and Videotec – specialised integrators and Center Group linking to the end user. All our partners fully support our proposition and are focused not only on the development of market opportunities but also on providing the highest value customer support and satisfaction. Our partners are clearly able, with us, to quickly drive the development of solutions that are both bespoke to individual markets and clients at this exciting time.”
Center Group – which up to now has traded exclusively as CCTV Center – adds that it has worked with selected manufacturers and software developers.
Robert Tate is head of the new Nexus Connect division. He says: “Through Nexus Connect the client only deals with fully accredited and trained staff at all points of the delivery chain. All elements have been selected specifically to ensure the highest standards are achieved. The aim is simply to assure the client of the quality of his choice, and to offer premium levels of support and guidance. This includes a comprehensive training programme for systems integrators and consultants, which has the full support of the manufacturers that are part of the programme. This has been made possible because Center Group is the sole UK representative for a number of supplier partners.”
While the new Nexus Connect division will focus on integrated IP systems, the CCTV Center division will continue as an IP security product distributor of choice.
