AMS's dedication to deploying IP solutions offers county councils and local authorities, a low cost, scaleable, moveable and highly flexible IP solution to their surveillance needs. IP surveillance is an open-plan architecture, and Advance has a unique combination of networking, software and off-site monitoring skills.
