Business Wire
Homeland Security Technology, Inc., (a Division of Amnis, Inc.
(Pink Sheets:AMNI)), announced today that it has entered into a
Security Services Teaming Agreement with Professional Protection,
Incorporated (PPI(TM)) of North Carolina to provide security and
logistical support for operations in Louisiana and the Gulf Coast
region in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. HST signed
the teaming agreement with PPI(TM) on Friday. Under the terms of
the agreement, PPI(TM) will act as the prime contractor and will
utilize HST as its sub-contractor on contracts signed in relation
to security support for personnel affected by the two devastating
hurricanes that have ravaged the region. PPI(TM) is currently
working contracts in the region and has established a command and
control center in Metairie, Louisiana to provide security and
material support for Allstate Insurance National Catastrophic
Team/South East Team dispatched to the region. HST will provide
personnel and logistical support for PPI's continued security
operations in Louisiana and the Gulf Coast region. "HST entered
discussions with PPI(TM) immediately after Hurricane Katrina had
passed through the New Orleans area and dispatched our Director of
Security, Mark Wilson to make liaison with PPI(TM) in Metairie,
Louisiana," said Colonel Jeffrey Powers, CEO of Homeland Security
Technology, Inc. "I observed a well coordinated, professionally run
central command operation at the PPI(TM) command center," said
Wilson. "After discussions with PPI(TM), it was only logical that
our two companies should team together to place a powerhouse
security organization at the disposal of the local authorities and
show FEMA that the team is capable of supporting their personnel
with like logistical and security assets." "Teaming with HST, we
are able to put up to 150 professionally trained experienced law
enforcement and security professionals on the ground in any area
affected by these storms on a moment's notice. We are capable of
self-supporting the deployments and can operate from command posts
set up in any area of operation," commented Carlton E. Miles, Jr.,
CEO of Professional Protection Incorporated. The PPI/HST team has
already begun to function with HST providing logistical support in
the way of handheld Garmin RINO 120 radios for PPI(TM) security
personnel. PPI(TM) has established liaison with the Louisiana State
Police, The Louisiana State Board of Private Security and
Examiners, Jefferson Parish President, and the New Orleans Police
Department; and HST will be assisting PPI(TM) in negotiations for
future FEMA security contracts in the Louisiana and Gulf Coast
region. About PPI(TM), Inc. Established in 1988, Professional
