BOCA RATON, Fla, June 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Spectrum Global Solutions Inc. (the “Company” or “Spectrum”) (OTCQB: SGSI), announced today that High Wire Networks Inc. (“High Wire”) has been awarded a $1.28M electrical contract for a new 170,000-square-foot production facility and office in Southern Wisconsin, centralized between the Chicago and Milwaukee metro areas. As previously announced, High Wire has agreed to go public through a merger with Spectrum Global Solutions Inc. (OTCQB:SGSI). While the closing of the merger has been delayed, as the Company awaits PPP loan forgiveness from the SBA, the profits from this contract and other High Wire business will be reflected in the Spectrum public filings going forward as part of the two companies' previously announced management agreement.
High Wire will install 1,100 light fixtures, a new 2,000 amps electrical service and 1,600 amps busway. The team also will deliver a turn-key fire alarm solution, including the design and installation.
In addition to the warehouse power distribution, the electricians will upgrade power to the second-floor office being modernized. The new site is expected to enhance customer and employee experience, provide supply chain efficiency and operational flow, and deliver facility optimization and automation.
“To be able to power and provide safety for this new flagship facility and corporate headquarters where 300 employees will work is incredible,” said High Wire CEO Mark Porter. “We are a one-stop shop solution for our customers who leverage our commercial electrical, low voltage technology and fire alarm systems- all from a single source.”
“High Wire and Spectrum continue to see an increase in sales momentum and pent-up demand as the pandemic restrictions ease,” added Porter.
