Expanding its home base influence, Pye-Barker completes the acquisition of Southeastern System Services.
Pye-Barker Fire & Safety Expands Fire Protection and Security Offerings with Acquisition of Southeastern System Services
Pye-Barker Fire & Safety, a leading provider of fire protection, life safety, and security systems, has announced its acquisition of Southeastern System Services. This acquisition strengthens Pye-Barker's presence in the Southeast and broadens its range of offerings[1].
Southeastern System Services, based in Georgia, specialises in fire control systems, including water mist, high-expansion foam, dry chemical, and carbon dioxide systems[5]. The company also provides security and surveillance services, although specific details on their security system offerings are not extensively documented[5].
The acquisition of Southeastern System Services aligns with Pye-Barker's strategic growth plan. Darin Neslein, owner of Southeastern System Services, expressed his gratitude for the continued growth and preservation of the family feel in the alignment with Pye-Barker[4].
Pye-Barker's business model emphasises a fully integrated approach to life safety, meaning they package fire protection, security, and surveillance in a coordinated system. Southeastern System Services complements this with a range of specialized fire suppression technologies[1][5].
Bart Proctor, CEO of Pye-Barker, stated that Southeastern System Services shares similar values and is a perfect fit for their organization[2]. The skilled technicians from Southeastern System Services will continue to serve customers in the Southeast alongside Pye-Barker's teams[3].
The acquisition was facilitated by Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP, who represented Pye-Barker in the deal[1].
In addition to fire protection and security services, Pye-Barker offers integrated security systems encompassing alarms and surveillance solutions nationwide[1][2][4]. These security systems include access control, intrusion detection, remote video transmission, and CCTV systems.
DMP, a manufacturer of innovative security products, has introduced JamAlert, a device designed to combat the growing threat of illegal cellular signal jammers[6]. This device is not directly related to the Pye-Barker and Southeastern System Services acquisition, but it underscores the ongoing efforts to enhance security and safety solutions in the industry.
