Midwest Integrated Solutions

What Midwest Integrated Solutions does

Midwest Integrated Solutions (MIS) is a privately held security systems integrator headquartered in Bradley, Illinois, founded in 2005 and serving healthcare, education, hospitality, retail, corporate, and industrial clients across the Midwest United States. The company designs, sells, installs, and services integrated security systems combining access control (Lenel/S2 platform), alarm systems, surveillance cameras (including license plate recognition, facial recognition, and thermal scanning units), panic button systems (TraknProtect wireless RF+ultrasonic technology), infant and child protection systems, real-time location systems (RTLS), metal detectors, shooter detection systems, and security window film. Its proprietary P2T2 (People, Programs, Training, Technology) assessment methodology, developed by founders including President Chris Sorensen (formerly Head of Security at University of Chicago Hospitals with 40+ years of healthcare security experience), provides the consultative entry point for engagements.

MIS operates a sales-led, consultative go-to-market model offering free on-site evaluations, custom system design, professional installation by manufacturer-certified technicians, staff training, and ongoing 24/7/365 service agreements with sub-4-hour emergency response. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales and installation, recurring service and maintenance contracts, professional services (assessments, training, consulting), and subscription-based Security-as-a-Service financing through a partnership with TAMCO Shield that converts capital expenditure into recurring payments with obsolescence protection. The company maintains strategic alliances with TraknProtect (panic button technology), Lenel/S2 (access control VAR recognition in 2024), and sister company Sorensen, Wilder & Associates (vulnerability and workplace violence consulting), enabling bundled solution delivery. Recent product expansion includes a solar-powered mobile surveillance trailer (November 2024) and a Mobile Surveillance service offering (June 2025), signaling entry into temporary and rental security markets.

Emerging players

• SISCO (Systems Integration Solutions Company): Mid-Atlantic security systems integrator specializing in commercial and institutional physical security including access control, video, and intercom systems. Comparable as a similarly-sized integrator serving healthcare, education, and corporate customers.

Broad incumbents

• Johnson Controls Security Products: Global building security solutions provider offering access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, and integrated building security through its Tyco/Software House/CEM systems heritage. Competes with MIS on large healthcare, education, and enterprise accounts though at much greater scale.
• Convergint Technologies: One of the largest North American security systems integrators providing access control, video surveillance, and integrated security services across commercial, healthcare, education, and government customers. Closest scaled analog to MIS's service-and-installation model, though Convergint operates nationwide and globally.
• Securitas Technology (formerly Stanley Security): Global provider of integrated security solutions including access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, and electronic security services for commercial and institutional clients. Comparable to MIS through electronic security systems integration with overlapping healthcare and education verticals at much larger scale.
• ADT Commercial: National commercial security integrator (spun out and rebranded from ADT) providing intrusion, video, access control, and managed security services for healthcare, education, retail, and enterprise customers. Competitor on multi-site commercial accounts where MIS serves regional customers.

Direct peers

• Interface Security Systems: Mid-market managed security and network services integrator providing intrusion detection, video surveillance, access control, and managed monitoring for commercial, healthcare, education, and retail customers. Direct peer given similar scale and consultative field-sales GTM with managed services overlay.
• Vector Security: Mid-market security integrator delivering intrusion detection, video surveillance, access control, and 24/7 monitoring to commercial, healthcare, and retail customers across the Midwest and broader US. Closely comparable business model (installation + recurring monitoring) with a regional/multi-state footprint similar to MIS.
• Unlimited Technology Inc. Northeast/Mid-Atlantic US security systems integrator delivering integrated access control, video surveillance, and intrusion detection with healthcare and education vertical expertise. Comparable as a similarly-sized regional integrator with multi-vertical specialization and integration-led GTM.
• Sonitrol (now part of Securitas Technology): Provider of verified electronic security for commercial, healthcare, and education customers with intrusion, access control, and managed monitoring. Overlapping vertical focus and recurring monitoring business model make it a comparable peer for MIS, particularly relevant on regulated commercial accounts.

Regional players

• Pace Systems: Midwest-based security systems integrator that is explicitly cited in MIS team member Mike Casey's prior experience as a former employer. Direct regional competitor for healthcare, education, and commercial accounts across Illinois and surrounding states with overlapping service portfolio.
