"The product line has applications in several market segments," said Rob Harris, Director of Sales and Marketing, Tracewell. "Since both Tracewell and Hirsch have the Air Force as a current customer, we codeveloped these first models to the Air Force's specifications. "
"Tracewell and Hirsch partnered in this joint development because together we could offer a product that solves a big market problem, which is how to secure critical assets in demanding environments, yet keep them mobile and easily accessible for authorized users," said Scott Elliott, Director of Government Sales, Hirsch. "We see the partnership with Tracewell resulting in solutions that fit the challenging and exacting requirements of DoD/military environments as well as aerospace, telecom, medical, industrial and even some commercial markets."
