The Hirsch Government Program Group  

Worldwide, governments are facing security challenges of increasing complexity. Privacy and secrecy issues affect how employee databases are handled; safety regulations and user convenience are often contradicting desired security objectives. Electrical codes and standards vary from one end of the world to the other. Adversaries

GSA Contract No: GSO 7F 7733C
Contract extended through August 31, 2010
rising from a widening spectrum of groups seeking political, financial and technology information as well as those seeking personal revenge are all increasingly competent and their methods more and more sophisticated.
   
Hirsch Electronics’ unique engineering approach to system design combined with an uncompromising standard for quality have established Hirsch as the preferred supplier of products and services to clients where demands on system integrity are the most severe. Hirsch Electronics Corporation provides high security solutions to high-risk government facilities worldwide.
   
Mission

The Hirsch Government Program Group focuses on providing to government clients the level of discreet expertise required for successful project completion.
   
You work with a Hirsch senior manager who has extensive security engineering experience and thoroughly understands your mission, organization and operation. Members of the Government Program Group function as System Application Engineers, System Consultants and Instructors who can create and teach customized training courses tailored to specific clients’ requirements. In addition, the Government Program Group acts as a liaison between government client organizations and the Hirsch Engineering Department to process requests for development of new features and functions. Many are quickly implemented as standard features in our product line. Existing systems are easily updated to include the requested function. The result is typically a COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) standardized product developed in partnership with our clients that is flexible enough to satisfy applications including parking and elevator control, local stand-alone controller to large networked systems, SCIF access, and integrated access, badging, intrusion detection and ID badging systems. In some instances, Hirsch forms partnerships with third party suppliers to effectively satisfy agency requests.
   
Long Term Relationship

The Government Program Group operates on the premise that long-term relationships make business easy and that a single point of contact makes it even easier. The Hirsch Government Program Group builds on these concepts to become knowledgeable about your agency and special requirements.
   
Project Management and System Installation

Hirsch’s factory trained and certified dealer network provides local installation and service. (Contact the Hirsch Government Program Group for a list of dealers with clearances.) In some instances, local agency technicians can be Hirsch certified by attending a “closed” technical training course and can become totally self sufficient in their system maintenance activities. Classes are conducted in total discretion by Hirsch Government Program Group staff in a customer provided location or at the Hirsch corporate headquarters. Contact the Hirsch Government Program Group to make arrangements.
