  • Jun 27, 2011

RFI Communications and Security Systems has joined the Honeywell Authorized Dealer for Commercial Security Systems program. In addition to commercial customers, the San Jose-based security, fire and life safety integrator provides safety and security solutions for federal, state and local government agencies.

RFI, which maintains four offices in the western United States with more than 250 employees, serves customers in highly-regulated facilities such as universities and airports as well as multiple U.S. government agencies. The integrator specializes in end-to-end solutions that include video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, GPS tracking and managed services. Additionally, RFI also owns and operates Security Command Center, a five-diamond certified, 24-hour UL-listed central monitoring station.

“Our customers operate in highly complex environments, and we work to understand those environments as best we can to develop the right solutions that will meet their needs, whether they are commercial facilities or government agencies,” said Brad J. Wilson, Certified Protection Professional (CPP®) and president of RFI. “Teaming with Honeywell ensures that we provide our customers with the top technology in the business to meet not only their security needs, but also government standards.”

Honeywell’s Authorized Dealer Program for Commercial Security Systems supports commercial and industrial security dealers by offering customized marketing support, targeted sales opportunities and technical training programs. The program is designed for dealers with expertise in intrusion and fire, video surveillance and access control.

“More commercial and government customers are seeking security solutions that not only protect their people and buildings, but also their bottom lines,” said Dave Kaufman, Honeywell’s director of dealer programs. “RFI understands that end-to-end solutions that create truly connected facilities represent the best way to achieve that objective. Its commitment to that approach makes RFI a great fit as a dealer in our Commercial Security System program.”
