Attenti

Attenti is a US-based company specializing in electronic monitoring solutions for law enforcement and corrections agencies, providing advanced tracking and monitoring technology to enhance supervision of individuals in the community. Attenti, formed in 1994 and headquartered in St. Paul, US, focuses on delivering electronic monitoring solutions. In June 2017, Apax Partners acquired 3M’s Electronic Monitoring Business for USD 200 mn, completing the deal in October 2017, leading to the rebranding of the company to Attenti.

Attenti offers a comprehensive range of electronic monitoring solutions through its Allied Universal® Electronic Monitoring division. Its product offerings include advanced GPS tracking, RF monitoring, and alcohol monitoring systems. Key products include EM Manager for centralized case management, Mobile EM Manager for field monitoring, and analytics software to assess monitoring data. Their services serve government agencies and law enforcement in 35 countries, including the US, Canada, and regions in Europe and Latin America.

In the most recent fiscal year of 2016, Attenti reported a revenue of USD 95 mn, generated through a business model that includes subscriptions for software and monitoring services, as well as partnerships with government agencies and correctional institutions. As part of its growth strategy, Attenti is focusing on expanding its product line and entering new markets. The recent acquisition will allow for the development of new monitoring technologies and the enhancement of existing products. Plans include targeting markets in Asia Pacific and Latin America by 2020 to broaden its global footprint.

The USD 200 mn from the recent funding round will support these initiatives, enabling the introduction of innovative monitoring solutions and expansion into strategic regions.
