QUADNETICS GROUP 
("QUADNETICS") 
 
 
CONTRACT WIN FROM STAGECOACH 
 
 
Quadnetics Group plc (AIM: QDG), a leader in the design, integration and control 
of advanced CCTV and networked video systems, announces that it has won a new 
GBP3.7 million contract with Stagecoach to supply and install CCTV on buses. 
 
 
The three year contract between Look CCTV, part of Quadnetics' Mobile Systems 
division and Stagecoach will ensure all new buses ordered by Stagecoach up to 
the end of 2012 are fitted with state of the art digital CCTV systems to help 
combat crime and fraudulent insurance claims. 
 
 
Stagecoach, which operates 7,000 buses across the UK, already makes extensive 
use of LOOK CCTV technology throughout its fleet. Under the new contract, 
hundreds of new Stagecoach buses a year will be fitted with LOOK systems, which 
will be covered by a six-year warranty. 
 
 
Digital CCTV systems provide bus and coach operators with a powerful tool to 
combat crime on buses and reduce fraudulent insurance claims. 
 
 
The LOOK system includes wireless network applications to streamline CCTV 
maintenance and provide high capacity data logging for video and audio 
recording. 
 
 
Les Warneford, Managing Director of Stagecoach UK Bus, said: "The safety and 
security of our customers and our people is fundamental to our business, and 
public transport is the safest way to travel. 
 
 
"We have worked with LOOK for a number of years and they are a valued technology 
and service provider. Their systems have a proven track record of making our 
passengers feel safe, cutting crime and anti-social behaviour and helping track 
down offenders." 
 
 
LOOK CCTV is the UK's leading supplier and maintainer of digital CCTV systems to 
bus and coach operators with over 18,000 systems installed. 
 
 
Commenting on the contract win, John Shepherd, Chief Executive of Quadnetics 
said "I am delighted that our innovative team at Look CCTV has been able to 
secure this significant contract with Stagecoach. The mobile CCTV market is a 
major focus for our R&D investment and growth plans."
