Transaction will enable Motorola Solutions to
expand its computer-aided dispatch and records management systems
to a broader base of public safety agencies of every size
Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI), a leading provider of
mission-critical communication solutions and services for public
safety and commercial customers, today announced that it will
acquire Spillman Technologies, a privately held provider of
comprehensive law enforcement and public safety software solutions
for computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records management systems
(RMS).
Spillman provides public safety software to more than 1,700
agencies throughout the United States. In addition to CAD and RMS,
Spillman offers an integrated suite of comprehensive software
solutions and next generation cloud-based tools for jail management
systems, fire, mobile data, data sharing, field reporting, mapping
and geographic information systems.
Motorola Solutions’ acquisition of Spillman is part of its
strategy to expand its software portfolio and advance
mission-critical intelligence with a fully integrated command
center offering that connects public safety customers to real-time
data and insights like never before. With a focus on small- and
medium-sized public safety agencies, Spillman’s offerings are
complementary to Motorola Solutions’ offerings, which are focused
on larger public safety agencies.
“The Spillman acquisition demonstrates our commitment to expand
our smart public safety portfolio and provide agencies of all sizes
with a full suite of solutions for the command center, from call
processing equipment to CAD to RMS to land mobile radio and LTE
dispatching,” said Bruce Brda, executive vice president, Products
and Services, Motorola Solutions. “Spillman has a rich history of
providing reliable, comprehensive public safety software and
professional services that will expand Motorola Solutions’ software
capabilities and complement our command center offerings to meet
the needs of a broader customer base.”
Founded in 1982 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah,
Spillman also provides its customers with professional services,
including account management, training and technical support.
“Spillman has proven expertise providing comprehensive public
safety software for agencies nationwide,” said Lance Clark,
president and chief executive officer, Spillman. “Nearly half of
our customers are the result of customer referrals, thanks to our
product’s robust integration and data integrity. We are excited
about the opportunities that Motorola Solutions and Spillman have
together to expand the reach of these solutions to even more U.S.
agencies and ensure our customers continue to benefit from the
high-quality software and services they’ve come to expect.”
The acquisition agreement is subject to customary closing
conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of
2016. Terms were not disclosed.
