CORPS MONITORING – itself a division of security guarding specialist Corps Security – is partnering with business security systems provider Texecom to realise a one-stop signalling solution for clients.
Texecom Monitor offers signalling to leading Alarm Receiving Centres and is part of Texecom’s suite of digital solutions specifically designed to help professional installers grow and optimise their business.
Digital integration with the Corps Monitoring Alarm Receiving Centre provides a direct link with Texecom Cloud and Texecom Monitor solutions to protect people and property by allowing security installers to sign up and put connections directly into what is heralded as one of the most advanced monitoring facilities in the UK.
This innovative partnership means installers can now easily sign up to Texecom Monitor and set themselves up with Corps Monitoring from within the Texecom Cloud to provide immediate professional alarm monitoring, thereby removing the time spent waiting for hardware to arrive and be installed as everything is managed from one platform (ie Texecom Cloud).
Access to these services lets installers raise service levels with remote maintenance and configuration, reliable encrypted monitored alarm signalling, more frequent health checks and ‘anytime, anywhere’ access. The end result offers increased revenue, reduced overheads, improved efficiency and more satisfied customers, while the specially designed Texecom Connect app allows clients to access and then control their security system directly from a smart phone or tablet.
Full compatibility
Texecom is trusted by over 300,000 professional installers, with the business protecting over one million people and properties globally. As a technical partner, Texecom is now fully compatible with Corps Monitoring’s Alarm Receiving Centre based in Glasgow and holds the National Security Inspectorate Gold accreditation (Category 2).
News of the partnership comes ahead of the 2025 switch-off of the UK’s public switched telephone network, at which point domestic and residential customers must have upgraded to a fully digital solution.
Gavin McCartney, solutions director at Corps Monitoring, said: “We’re constantly looking to ensure our clients have the options they need to be successful in what is a dynamic market. In partnership with Texecom, we’re part of an innovative signalling product that can be quickly and easily ordered and established through clients’ existing Texecom Cloud accounts.”
Daniel Morrissey, Alarm Receiving Centre partnership manager at Texecom, added: “During early discussions with Corps Monitoring, it quickly became apparent that they had a requirement for a reliable, easy-to-install monitoring solution that would better support both Corps Monitoring and its customers. With Texecom providing support, and given the quick and easy install of Texecom Monitor, plus easy access via Texecom Cloud, it’s great for us to be working with Corps Monitoring to achieve the above.”
