Qinetiq's highly sensitive GPS modules are suitable for markets requiring tracking indoors.
The Acte Group companies will be in partnership with Siemens to distribute and design in Siemens' GSM products and technology for industrial applications.
"Siemens has the financial strength needed to be a reliable industrial partner for Lagercrantz Group, and support our future growth in the M2M market", said Jan Friis the CEO of Lagercrantz Group.
Siemens is a leading network manufacturer and performs extensive testing of its GSM developments for qualification against all the international networks before release.
This reduces the need for revisions of the firmware and easier handling of the logistics for both distributor and customer.
Siemens also supports the EMEI coding for easy handling of the after sales service, while taking full responsibility for all aspects of the GSM modules.
"Their need to develop a strong partnership with a skilled distributor, makes Siemens a natural choice for our company.
We are a key part of their growth strategy and will take part in developing and supporting the expanding industrial communication market", said Stein Thorvaldsen President of Lagercrantz Electronics commenting on the agreement.
Mike Collen Managing Director of Acte in UK, added: "Acte has demonstrated aggressive growth and ability to gain customers' acceptance in the area of industrial communication with strong focus on GSM/GPRS.
Siemens' desire to develop their business by addressing customer needs for telemetry and M2M solutions in Europe was a prime mover in choosing Acte".
