The Revenue Gap & The Pivot
Our current sales motion in the Central region and Canada relies too heavily on reactive RFP & 'order taker' quote responses. This results in anemic pipelines and allows competitors like Axon to out-position us by preemptively shaping customer requirements.
To close the revenue gap, we must immediately shift to proactive, Blue Sheet driven campaigns. The data below projects the massive differential in win rates when we dictate the narrative versus waiting for a bid.
Projected Win Rates: Reactive vs. Proactive
The "Trojan Horse" Strategy
To extend the MSI ecosystem to the sky, we cannot lead with legacy components alone. We must capture attention by directly addressing our customers' most pressing immediate needs using cutting-edge aerial technology, which naturally necessitates our robust public safety ecosystem.
1. The Catalyst (Sky)
Lead with BRINC Drones & SkySafe. Address immediate threats like prison contraband drops and drone incursions.
2. The Foundation (Radio)
Extend drone and CUAS operations directly to APX radios. By leveraging our Mission Critical communications, you get seamless integration and rapid hardware dispatch.
3. The Eyes (Video)
Integrate drone, fixed, and mobile video feeds for comprehensive situational awareness.
4. The Brain (Software)
Unify the data. Pull through CommandCentral, Aware, CAD, 911, and Cyber for clear common operating picture.
Unconventional Target Matrix
Stop targeting standard policing task forces exclusively. Expand the pipeline into non-traditional sectors with overlapping needs across Canada and the 13 Central US States.
Correctional Facilities
Deploy SkySafe detection to locate and prevent highly lucrative drone contraband drops (weapons/narcotics) across complex prison perimeters like Jackson County.
College Campuses
Protect densely populated events and massive stadiums from unauthorized rogue drone threats utilizing integrated airspace intelligence and Avigilon overwatch.
First Responders (DFR)
Enable autonomous BRINC Guardian drone deployments instantly via the tactile, physical emergency panic button on APX NEXT smart radios.
Follow the Money: Procurement Pathways
Agencies rarely have multi-million dollar budgets waiting for holistic ecosystem purchases. Our sales teams must act as strategic funding consultants.
By mapping our proactive pitches directly to massive federal and provincial grant pools, we remove the financial friction that blocks ecosystem-wide adoption.

Defeating Axon
Competitors are attempting to flank us with disjointed, app-based solutions. We win by proving our integrated, mission-critical superiority.
