Insight Home Solutions, a privately held international group focused on the integration of home electronic systems, has acquired Calgary, AB's Smart Home Systems, an automated and integrated home systems design company.
Smart Home Systems is just the latest in a series of acquisitions Insight has been making to help extend its reach throughout Canada and the U.S. The company already previously acquired Coast Sound FX near Vancouver, BC; RAD Home Integration in Scottsdale, AZ; and Phoenix Home Theatre in Fountain Hills, AZ. Insight itself has offices in Calgary, Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Scottsdale, and the Phoenix Metropolitan area.
The acquisitions, says Insight, have been driven by the company's desire to "optimize home electronic systems" and "reinforce benchmark strategy and economies of scale, enhancing services and adding value for home electronics systems."
Insight Home Solutions offers entertainment, communications, security and convenience systems ranging from customized theatres, to intercoms and network access, to home systems and security controlled from an iPhone, iPad or smartphone.
"It is exciting to see Insight Home Solutions expand, while maintaining the local connection we are all so proud of," says Michael McDonald, Chairman of Insight Home Solutions. "We are aware of the economic hurdles companies currently face, and in spite of this, Insight Home Solutions continues to grow. Thanks to an innovative organizational structure and increasing economies of scale, we are able to provide our clients with higher quality and lower costs. We are confident our enhanced services will appeal to the important Calgary market, and we know the extra value we are able to pass on to the end consumer will be appreciated."
"Being part of Insight Home Solutions is an exciting opportunity for all of us at Smart Home Systems," adds Ron Patrick, Founder and President of Smart Home Systems. "Insight Home Solutions has developed a business model which allows us to tap into the combined years of experience of our partners in other cities. In addition to this, Insight Home Solutions is able to leverage more power as a purchaser, resulting in clear savings we will pass directly on to our clients."
Smart Home Systems was incorporated in 1990, and is credited with building Canada's first automated smart home in Calgary.
