It began with a vision of becoming phenomenal. This week with the announcement that Allied Universal has agreed to acquire U.S. Security Associates (USSA), the foundation has been laid to realize that goal.
Around this time in 2017, we celebrated our one-year anniversary as Allied Universal, formed from the merger of Universal Services of America and AlliedBarton Security Services to face a new security era together.
This week I’m proud to welcome the USSA team into the Allied Universal family. Over the years, USSA has evolved into one of the leaders in the security industry and like us, provides a unique suite of security solutions to a wide array of clients across industry verticals.
The need for security has evolved on all levels. Emerging threats, coupled with a stronger emphasis on safety and changing business environments abound around the globe. Likewise, Allied Universal is keeping pace. This partnership:
• Expands Allied Universal’s national presence and customer service capabilities.
• Enhances our position in Canada, as well as expands our footprint to Central America and the United Kingdom.
• Adds a sizable consulting and investigative division and event staffing business.
With more solutions and resources to complement our already burgeoning integrated suite of services and technology offerings, we’re prime to serve even more customers with greater capabilities.
Our progression continues. However, our mission remains the same: Allied Universal provides unparalleled service, systems and solutions to serve, secure and care for the people and businesses of our communities. We put our relationships with our employees and clients at the heart of everything we do each and every day.
I want to express appreciation for our employees and clients on whom the success of Allied Universal depends. Without you, there would be no us. Thank you for being a part of our legacy.
