Premier Alliance Selected to Develop Innovative Wireless Security System for Large Institutional Facility

CHARLOTTE, NC--(Marketwire - Mar 20, 2012) - Premier Alliance Group, Inc. (OTCBB: PIMO), a professional services company focused on business and technology advisory and consulting services and solutions, today announced that its recent acquisition Greenhouse Holdings has been engaged to provide design, engineering and application programming support for a state-of-the-art wireless security and notification system for one of the largest facilities of its kind in the United States. Once complete this innovative project will represent over $800,000 in revenue to Premier Alliance.

CEI engineers will work with off-the-shelf RFID and 802.11 B/G Wi-Fi enabled hardware, used to track many of the facility's 2,300 personnel, to develop and engineer a wireless broadcast plan. Once implemented, staff members will have the ability to sound alarms that instantly notify security and other personnel of an event in progress and its location, thereby enabling them to send immediate assistance anywhere on the 130+ acre campus.

"This is the kind of project that really differentiates our exceptional engineers," said John Galt, President of GreenHouse. "Taking the same in depth knowledge they have of control system management, that's normally utilized to make our industrial customers more energy efficient, and applying that in an innovative way to keep these hard working people safe."
