Stone Technologies Corporation
stonetechnology.com
Established in 1965, and headquartered in Salida, CO, Stone Technologies provides the following products and services:
Stone Technologies wanted to expand its traditional alarm monitoring business into remote monitoring for industrial needs. This allowed Stone to add new revenue streams and services and grow their business.
Breakdown of recurring revenue for Stone Technologies:
Uplink 5500EZ with cellular connectivity services
These three non-security applications for industrial remote monitoring with the 5500EZ have resulted in a big increase in sales and additional recurring revenue for Stone Technologies.
Stone Technologies offers a lifetime warranty on the equipment, as long as they are doing the monitoring, which has resonated with many of their customers because of the 2G to 4G/LTE transition.
Since it takes a lot of manpower and money to take the 2G SIMs out and put in the 4G SIMs, offering this service made Stone Technologies’ customers very happy, because a typical trip to a tower site costs $600 dollars to roll a truck and have technicians look at the site. Stone’s customers save a lot of money this way, because they were only charged $75 for a new Uplink 5500EZ communicator.
Stone Technologies is currently monitoring well over a thousand radio tower sites and approximately 150 water wastewater sites.
Using an automated system where there’s no operator interactive emergency, Stone Technologies charges $30 a month per device, roughly only $1 per day, including the fee for signal delivery. With a fully-interactive service, where the signals are handled by a live operator at one of two monitoring stations, they charge about $50 a month. Stone technologies sells the hardware solution up front for around $1,000 and then charges monthly for the service.
Contracts typically run for two years, and at the end of the second year they evaluate whether the costs for the recurring revenue have gone up and make an appropriate adjustment. Typically, every two years the monitoring goes up about a dollar a month.
Breakdown of recurring revenue for Stone Technologies:
Stone Technologies projects that in 2019, current business efforts will result in a 10% rate increase and additional new accounts.
Paying only one dollar a day to have these systems monitored makes a lot of sense, in order to avoid paying hefty government fines, prevent power outages and comply with governmental lighting regulations.
