Excerpt from On-line HDS conference update follow the money!
By Allen R. Gibson
In order to respond to the urgent needs of the DHS in the wake of 9-11, the agency spread its procurement wings wide, and entrepreneurs have been rushing to fill its needs every since.
This has led to some spectacular successes among small companies in fields where the government mandated not only budgets but timelines for implementation, says Brian Ruttenbur: Equity Research Analyst at Morgan Keegan & Co.
The Vice President of Raytheons Homeland Security division agrees. Dr. Hugo Poza says the HDS has done a remarkable job of including smaller companies in its procurement process.
What will happen in terms of timeline mandates is going to be greatly affected by the results of the upcoming Presidential election. The two candidates have different priorities and approaches to the war on terror, and to how the DHS will play its role.
That said, however, it remains clear that significant new spending on homeland security issues will be coming in the next few years, both from the federal and state governments, and perhaps even more so from private enterprises, as the government moves to shift some responsibility for security onto the private sector.
So the market for security technologies is expected to remain strong and, depending on what form the next terrorist attack takes, to grow in new, unpredictable ways. Jack Mallon of Mallon”s Security Report says Everything bodes well for the security industry in the immediate future.
