What Inorix does

Inorix is a French family-owned private security services company headquartered in Bordeaux, founded in 2006 by Patrice Beal and Lionel Boudet. It serves enterprise clients across five verticals — distribution/retail, industry and tertiary, defense, and events/entertainment — through eight service lines: human guarding (on-site surveillance agents, site managers, post supervisors), mobile patrol with geolocation-enabled vehicles, 24/7 intelligent remote video monitoring via the INORIX VISION platform (connecting up to 25,000 cameras across 180+ screens), security system installation and integration, professional training delivered through the wholly-owned INORIX FORMATION subsidiary, security audit and consulting, close protection, and corporate reception. The company operates 9 regional headquarters and 35+ agency locations across mainland France, with a stated objective of covering the 10 main French metropolitan areas by end of 2025.

The technology backbone combines INORIX VISION's secured command center with partner-supplied AI capabilities (Veesion for gesture-recognition theft detection, IntelliQ for loss-prevention analytics, Technis for IoT/smart-building data), Power BI-enabled KPI tracking for clients, connected surveillance robots, and autonomous mobile masts. SOTEL and TEB extend the offering through the Alian's strategic grouping for remote monitoring and technology integration. The model is regulatory- and certification-led: Inorix holds multiple CNAPS authorizations (security, close protection, training), MASE safety certification (2022), Qualiopi training quality certification, Ecovadis Silver Medal, and "entreprise à mission" status conferred in 2026.

The go-to-market is enterprise field sales conducted through regional agency directors and dedicated business-development leads per service line, supplemented by direct enterprise website lead capture into Zoho CRM. Training distribution also leverages the French government's Mon Compte Formation platform, which broadens reach via public CPF funding. The reported revenue mix is heavily weighted to human guarding at approximately 90% of group revenue, with the remainder spread across telesurveillance subscription contracts, training, installation, mobile patrols, and consulting — a profile consistent with a labor-intensive security services roll-up in the early stages of a recurring-revenue pivot through Inorix Vision.
