Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) September 21, 2006 -- TranSystems, based in Kansas City, Missouri, an industry leader in providing complete solutions to the full range of transportation challenges facing its clients, and SecuraComm of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a leading provider of security consulting services to clients in the transportation sector, have announced the merger of the two firms.

Brian Larson, President of TranSystems, said “the name of SecuraComm is synonymous with high-value, high-quality security services to an array of public and private entities in the transportation sector. They bring great value to our consultancy services and their unique skills fit our strategic goals to a T.”

SecuraComm consultants are experts in a number of security environments, including seaport security, aviation security, rail security, public transit security, supply chain security and infrastructure hardening. Their services include security audits and appraisals, vulnerability assessments, business continuity, Homeland Security interface, IT security, and application of Risk Assessment Methodologies (RAM.)

Ron Libengood, President of SecuraComm, said “security is inherently and equally a business and a human issue for transportation clients in all sectors. The economy’s ever-increasing reliance on transportation of people and goods calls for security advisory services that anticipate security challenges and integrate a security stance into all designs. I share Brian’s vision of leveraging our intellectual capital in the security domain throughout TranSystems’ entire network of 36 offices.”

SecuraComm joins TranSystems as part of its Transportation Security set of offerings, serving the freight rail, passenger rail and transit, states and municipalities, airports and air carriers, shippers and distributors, ports and maritime, trucking and automotive, energy and communications and the Federal government sectors.

“With this move, TranSystems demonstrates its commitment to its security line of specialized services,” said Larson. “The business will extend SecuraComm’s highly-developed skills throughout an organization already rich in skills. We couldn’t be prouder to have them on board.”
