Statewide Monitoringrp

What Statewide Monitoringrp does

Scutum Digital, operating from a 9,000 sq. ft. fully redundant central station in Staten Island, NY (with a Tampa, FL operations site), is a wholesale-only alarm monitoring provider serving more than 1,000 alarm dealers and security integrators across North America and the Caribbean. Founded in 1981 as Statewide Central Station and rebranded in January 2026 following the integration of Visentry, the company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scutum Group. It is UL Listed, TMA Five-Diamond Certified, IQ Certified, and one of a small number of NYC Fire Department–approved central stations for commercial fire alarm monitoring — a credential set that materially constrains competition in its core geography.

The product platform spans professional 24/7 monitoring for burglar alarms, fire and sprinkler systems, elevator, PERS (LifeSentry/SentryPet), radio/IP panels (AES, Honeywell AlarmNet, Alarm.com, DSC, Telguard, Uplink, DMP, Bosch, FireLite, Napco, 2GiG), and IoT devices, delivered via fully redundant Surgard System III receivers and proprietary dealer-facing tools including the Scutum Digital mobile app, Scutum CentraLink (Matrix Web Portal), Dealer Den, and the MyAlarmStatus subscriber portal. Proprietary AI-driven vision software powers the Remote Guarding product line (live agent verification plus two-way audio voice-down), Mobile Security Towers (22ft, solar-powered, 4x 4K, AI detection, 5G/Starlink), Doorman24 remote doorman services, IoT Cyber Security (network isolation for IoT/SCADA), and Personalized AI in partnership with Irisity.

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring monthly wholesale RMR from alarm dealers on a volume-discounted subscription basis, with incremental managed services revenue from direct enterprise Remote Guarding contracts, mobile tower rentals, and fire-monitoring subscriptions through the Scutum Fire Corp sub-brand. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; account transfer incentives are offered to dealers migrating from competing central stations. Distribution runs almost entirely through the dealer channel (dealers retain end-customer relationships), with direct enterprise sales supplementing on Remote Guarding and Mobile Tower deals. The customer base spans automotive dealerships (DCH Auto Group, Lithia Motors, Rallye, Paul Miller), real estate investors and property managers (East End Capital, GFB, Galil), logistics (Marine Container Services), industrial and construction verticals, and a long tail of SMB and mid-market dealers — providing revenue diversification through the wholesale channel rather than direct concentration on a few large end-customers.

Revenue model

1. Wholesale Alarm Monitoring Services: Recurring monthly revenue (RMR) from alarm dealers who subscribe to central station monitoring services for their end customers. Dealers pay per-account monitoring fees based on volume tiers. Covers burglar alarms, fire systems, sprinkler, elevator, PERS, and IoT device monitoring. The company operates as a wholesale-only central station, never competing with its dealer partners for accounts.
2. Remote Video Monitoring / Remote Guarding: AI-powered remote guarding services billed to commercial and residential property owners/managers. Includes outdoor perimeter security, remote doorman services, guard augmentation, and video verification. Services provided directly or through dealer referrals. Security-as-a-Service (SaaS) model with monthly recurring fees.
3. Mobile Security Tower Rentals: Monthly service model for mobile security tower deployment. Towers are self-powered (solar + battery), require no trenching or wiring, and provide immediate standalone protection for construction sites, parking lots, vacant properties, and events. No capital investment required from the customer.
4. Fire Alarm & Elevator Monitoring: Specialized monitoring services for fire alarm systems, sprinkler systems, and elevator monitoring with 2-way video communication. Particularly critical for NYC FDNY-approved commercial fire alarm monitoring. NICET-certified staff support for code compliance.
5. Dealer Support Services & Tech Support: Value-added dealer services including 24/7 data entry services, custom inbound/outbound calling under dealer brand, answering services, customized reporting, tech support for third-party services, fire alarm code compliance guidance, and tech training webinars. Some services bundled with monitoring; others billed separately.
