Cybersecurity Services for Tessco

Tessco stopped trading on the Nasdaq on July 17, 2023, when Lee Equity Partners and Twin Point Capital bought the company at $9.00 a share in a deal worth about $160 million. The business dates to 1982 and still runs out of Hunt Valley, Maryland, with additional facilities in Timonium and in Reno, Nevada. What changed is the company around it. Tessco is now one brand inside a group that also holds Alliance Corporation, GetWireless and DiscountCell

Four distribution brands under one holding company creates a quiet problem for the one with the oldest customer list. Utilities, rail operators, public safety agencies and federal buyers have been buying from Tessco for decades, and their expectations have shifted underneath the relationship. A transit authority putting radios along a right of way is now building something regulators treat as critical infrastructure. Same for a utility standing up a private wireless network. Those customers ask who secures it. Tessco holds TL9000 and ISO 9001, which describe how well it runs a supply chain and say nothing about who hardens a network after the hardware ships. Building that answer internally, while four companies are still being stitched into one operating model, competes with every other integration priority

CWS supplies the answer without Tessco having to become a services company. Engineers work under the Tessco name, or under the name of any brand in the group, to one delivery standard across the United States and Canada, and in French where a Quebec or Canadian federal contract requires it. Scoping and quoting run through Corova, along with project tracking once the work starts, so a security engagement can be priced next to the hardware order it belongs with instead of trailing it by a quarter
