Blackline Safety expands into utilities with $1.5 million deal

announced that it has signed a new contract to supply G7c equipment and services to a major US utility provider based in California.

The value of the contract – resulting from the cooperation between Blackline Safety and one of its trading partners in the USA – is over USD 1.5 million. The utility service provider has already started implementing the devices in its organization.

In total, the gas and electricity supply company will deploy 1,000 G7c lone worker devices to protect its frontline workers. The award-winning, wearable G7c – with features such as SOS latch, fall and motion detection, and real-time connectivity – provides crucial emergency support.

“Our devices are particularly well-suited to the utility industry,” said Sean Stinson, president and chief development officer of Blackline Safety. “The G7 is highly customizable to your needs, from multi-gas detection to two-way voice communication and solo work features. Companies don’t need multiple suppliers and expensive infrastructure to keep their employees safe. Blackline’s comprehensive solutions have them covered.”

The California-based vendor also signed a contract for a monitoring service run by Blackline’s Security Operations Center (SOC). Blackline’s internal SOC is available 24/7 and can respond to someone needing help within seconds.

“Our SOC monitoring services provide an additional layer of protection for those working alone,” Stinson said. “When combined with our devices, we set the standard for the safest and most effective solution for lone workers on the market.”
