Pye-Barker Fire & Safety has acquired ResponseTECH, Inc., a Rockville, Maryland-based provider of security and life safety solutions, in a move that expands its service capabilities across the state.
ResponseTECH will join Pye-Barker’s existing Maryland teams to provide fire protection, life safety, and security services to a broader customer base. The company delivers intrusion and fire alarm systems, access control, central station monitoring, nurse-call systems, and mass emergency notification systems, covering planning and design through to testing and maintenance.
The business serves customers across commercial facilities, education, and senior living, with a focus on customer service and long-term client relationships.
Avner Skolnik, owner of ResponseTECH, said company culture had been a key factor in the decision. “It’s about outstanding customer service, honest business practices, long-lasting client relationships and giving back to the community. I see those values every day in Pye-Barker, which is why I’m so energized by this partnership.”
Bart Proctor, CEO of Pye-Barker, said ResponseTECH’s team was a strong cultural fit for the company. “It was clear that ResponseTECH’s team shares our passion for customer relationships, and that together, we can deliver world-class service to our Maryland communities.”
ResponseTECH’s technicians will continue serving customers in Maryland following the acquisition. Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP represented Pye-Barker in the transaction.
