BLOOMINGTON, IN, August 20, 2015 — Envisage Technologies, a Bloomington, Indiana-based high-technology firm, announced today it has been awarded a multi-year contract by the Department of Homeland Security Federal Protective Service (FPS). FPS chose the Acadis® Readiness Suite to replace its legacy systems with a modern, modular software solution.
FPS will implement Acadis to automate training academy management for its law enforcement and non-law enforcement personnel at their training academy in Glynco, GA. Additionally, FPS will look to leverage the Readiness Suite capability to help manage the training and compliance function for their Protective Security Officers (PSOs) throughout the thousands of Federal facilities across the United States which fall under FPS’ scope of protection responsibility. Acadis will help ensure that FPS officers and private security companies providing guard staffing are in compliance with all training and reporting requirements.

It streamlines training, testing, and certification processes, creating almost instant access to compliance information for all the men and woman charged with protecting our Federal Facilities,” stated Rick Swengros, FPS Deputy Director for Training & Professional Development. “The Acadis technology is well established within the DHS and was an optimal choice for our agency.”
