Zuercher Technologies Acquires Law Enforcement Technology Group (LETG)

Friday, November 20, 2015.

Zuercher Technologies, a TriTech company, is honored to welcome the LETG customers and employees into the Zuercher family. With comprehensive, technically advanced solutions and fanatical customer support, Zuercher’s vision is to make a significant positive impact on the public safety software industry at a national level. With the addition of LETG customers, employees, and products, Zuercher furthers its goal of expanding its market share and adding new capabilities to an already-rich platform.



Known for combining a strong commitment to public safety with extensive real-world public safety experience, LETG has built a customer base of over 200 agencies and established itself as the most widely used public safety software provider in the state of Minnesota. LETG solutions are used in many levels of public safety including state, county, municipal, transit, and tribal agencies. LETG has provided agencies with significant workflow efficiencies and greater data access by taking a "state-specific” approach, partnering with state entities to assist local agencies in staying current with reporting mandates and participating in data-sharing initiatives.



"Working with local and state agencies leveraging technology to increase collaboration and information sharing is something that I am personally very passionate about, and I am excited to work on these types of initiatives within a company that has such strong momentum in the public safety software industry nationally,” said Jeff Gottstein, President and Founder of LETG.



Zuercher has supplied public safety software for over 12 years and offers a comprehensive suite of applications. Zuercher’s unique managed services offering has enabled their customers to achieve maximum uptime and continual upgrades while lowering the cost of system administration. Its solutions are highly tailorable to state- and agency-specific needs, which has allowed the Zuercher platform to expand rapidly from serving agencies in three states in 2010 to 20 states today.



With the acquisition of LETG, Zuercher continues its strategy of extending its reach and competitiveness. Bringing Zuercher and LETG together will enable them to continue providing the same high-quality software and uncompromising level of support, while giving their combined customer bases access to greater resources and a broader scope of products and services.



"I look forward to bringing our businesses together to build on the successes we’ve both achieved thus far in providing high quality, exceptionally supported software solutions to public safety agencies,” said Michael Zuercher, Senior Vice President and General Manager – Zuercher, of TriTech Software Systems. "LETG clearly shares our passion for improving the state of public safety software, and we look forward to leveraging LETG’s accomplishments to strengthen our ability to serve public safety agencies on an ever-increasing geographic scale.”



Key Facts:

  • LETG products will continue to be supported for many years to come, now backed by additional resources, a larger team of committed professionals, and additional public safety and technology expertise.
  • Zuercher has grown aggressively in recent years, expanding its customer base from just three states in 2010 to 20 states today. That momentum has continued throughout this year with the addition of agencies in five new states in 2015 alone.
  • TriTech’s Center of Excellence for lower- to mid-tier products is located in Sioux Falls, SD, and was recently moved into a newly-built office with capacity to accommodate Zuercher’s continued growth and addition of new capabilities.
  • Zuercher will pursue a "best of both” strategy to combine the strengths of both companies’ products into a single Zuercher platform which will continue to serve as TriTech’s go-forward platform for the lower tiers of the market.
  • This marks Zuercher’s second acquisition. Zuercher first acquisition resulted in the successful integration of that company’s products and customers into the Zuercher family and strengthened Zuercher’s overall scope of services.
