LONDON - Petards Group PLC, the AIM-listed firm specializing in advanced security and surveillance systems, has announced a new contract win through its subsidiary, QRO Solutions. QRO has secured an order worth nearly £0.3 million from a longstanding UK police force client for the supply and installation of its NASBox roadside Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) systems.

Raschid Abdullah, Chairman of Petards Group, expressed satisfaction with the repeat business, stating, "We are delighted that QRO has again been selected by this customer to supply its roadside ANPR technology which we believe continues to illustrate the high levels of confidence customers have in QRO’s products, and the value they place on the high quality of customer service it provides."

QRO Solutions is known for providing critical ANPR and mobile average speed solutions to enforcement agencies, including the Home Office, various police forces, local councils, and the Ministry of Defence Police. Their technology portfolio includes fixed and mobile ANPR systems, AI cameras, speed enforcement tools, and software applications for ANPR management and mobile phone alerting.

The announcement, based on a press release statement, highlights the ongoing demand for QRO’s technology solutions within the law enforcement sector and the company’s ability to secure orders from key clients. The financial impact of the contract is considered to be non-material in terms of the company’s overall performance expectations.
