Prism Distribution forms Access Control, Parking and security division.

June '99 News & Events

Prism Distribution's success in the retail, banking and telecommunications industries prompted the company to look at other industries where there is a similarity in customer and system requirements and where the experience it has gained could be put to use for both the customer and company's benefit.

The industries mentioned above require the secure acquisition and transfer of data from tokens to management systems using leading edge technology. Experience in this requirement, coupled with -

assured continuity of supply from leading international manufacturers

competitive pricing,

reasonable stock levels

good service and

practical advice on the implementation of the devices

- forms the basis on which Prism Distribution operates.

After careful consideration the decision was taken to form a division focused on the needs of the Access Control, Parking and Security arena and the company created the APS Division headed by Bernard Crimes.

Says Crimes, "Prism APS focuses on the supply of hardware token acceptance products, specifically to OEMs and Systems Integrators and offers a product range that includes proximity, magstripe and smartcard readers and writers, printer mechanisms, ticket and card dispensers as well as hotel door locks and related issuing equipment."

"Our range, coupled with Prism APS's management experience in the industry means that virtually all the industries token acceptance and processing needs are met from a single reliable source."

For details contact Bernard Crimes of Prism APS on tel: (011) 476 011, fax: (011) 465 8711, or e-mail [email protected].
