COPsync and HCSS sign distribution agreement

COPsync Inc. (COYN.OB) announced that the company has  licensed Hill Country Software and Support, Inc., an information technology vendor to state and local government and law enforcement, to be a distributor of the COPsync  fieldbased reporting and information-sharing network. Hill Country  sells and supports county and municipal government  accounting,  court management,  tribal  court  management, CJIS  reporting, vehicle inventory tax, and law enforcement systems.

“We  welcome Hill Country to our existing network of distributors and resellers,” said Herbert Severin, Vice President for Strategic Business Relations of COPsync.  “COPsync  is dedicated to building a nationwide network of the best  of the estimated  2100 vendors  supplying  information technology  to the law enforcement industry. We plan to integrate our service with the  information systems of these select vendors – to produce a nationwide network of distributors committed to real time data interoperability. Hill Country has a broad product set, robust technology and a substantial customer base in key industry sectors, making them an obvious choice for inclusion in our distributor network.”

“The integration between Hill Country and COPsync will produce a complete and powerful law enforcement package that we are excited to offer agencies in Texas and beyond,” said Jim Stateczny, President of Hill Country Software and Support, Inc.  “The new features will not only increase safety in the field for the officers, but will also increase efficiency and accuracy  in reporting and managing the data collected.”

“Lack of information sharing among law enforcement agencies is a well-documented problem in the United States,” said Ronald A. Woessner, COPsync chief executive officer. “Hill Country’ssubstantial customer base in Texas further solidifies our position as the information sharing network of choice among law enforcement agencies in Texas. The nationwide network of distributors that we are building, who are committed to real-time data interoperability, will help us  leverage our success in Texas to extend the company’s geographical footprint throughout the United States.”
