RACOM, the company that won a contract to construct an emergency radio communications service for Benton County, has been sold to Eastern Communications Ltd.

In a press release Eastern Communications said, "Eastern Communications Ltd., a leading provider of mission critical communications and services in the Eastern US, announced today the acquisition of Marshalltown, Iowa based RACOM Corporation, a leading emergency communications service and technology provider in the Western US.

Together, the companies comprise one of the largest service and distribution platforms in the critical communications industry, establishing a truly national presence spanning 16 service locations from Seattle to New York City.

"For nearly fifty years, we have worked alongside Eastern through multiple generations of leadership for both companies," said Mike Miller, President of RACOM. "I cannot imagine a more perfect union of two organizations that helps ensure a cutting-edge career path for current and future employees while also scaling our ability to deliver industry leading service and technology to our customers."

"As a combined team with shared cultural values, we are excited to bring instant strategic value to our vendors, dealers, and customers alike by creating a technically sophisticated platform capable of service, support, and integration from coast to coast," added Michael Orzetti, CEO of Eastern Communications. "Most importantly, though, our combined technical expertise, dealer network, localized service, and operating scale will best support our end users operating in harm's way each day from Spokane to Staten Island - and everywhere in between."
