£2.0 million Award

Synectics expands its longstanding relationship with West Midlands Police, reinforcing its expertise in deploying solutions for high-security environments

Synectics plc (AIM: SNX), a leader in advanced security and surveillance solutions, is pleased to announce that Ocular Integration ("Ocular"), its systems integration business, has been awarded a project worth approximately £2.0 million by West Midlands Police ("WMP") (the "Project").

The Project will see Ocular upgrade WMP's existing surveillance solutions infrastructure with leading-edge technology through the installation of new systems across custodial suites and police stations throughout WMP's estate. The first site is expected to go live in April 2025, with the remaining sites being delivered over the next twelve months.

Ocular will also deploy Synectics' flagship Synergy software, which will deliver a range of security and surveillance capabilities, including multi-site management, secure video storage, and streamlined evidence management.

As one of the largest police forces in the country, this Project is expected to play a significant part in further supporting WMP's vision to make the communities they serve safer.

Amanda Larnder, Synectics' Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, said:

"We are delighted to strengthen our long-standing relationship with West Midlands Police. This project sees our solutions continuing to play a vital role in enhancing security and operational efficiencies for one of the largest police forces in the country."

"It is a strong endorsement of Ocular's sector expertise and its ability to deliver tailored solutions that meet the unique demands of policing and high-security environments."
