VANCOUVER, B.C. – Mission Ready Services Inc. (TSX-V: MRS) – Mission Ready Services Inc. (“Mission Ready” or “MRSI” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Protect The Force, Inc. (“Protect The Force” or “PTF”), in participation with its clients, was successful in capturing over $10M in sales, or ~$450K in revenue to PTF, in the last two months of the U.S. Federal Government budget year ending September 30, 2014.

This continues to demonstrate the ability of PTF to guide clients products through the US Federal Government’s procurement departments.  These relationships also assist in positioning products such as the No-Contact technology and the Ballistic Combat Shirt developed through MRSI’s R&D division, Mission Ready Technologies, very favorably with potential end users.

Gary Hess, President of Protect The Force, Inc. states, “As we wrap up a very successful year over the next 4 weeks, we look forward to the start of 2015 which we are forecasting to deliver continued revenue growth, new hires, key partnership arrangements and the successful completion of numerous current opportunities within our estimated $100 million sales pipeline.”

Respiratory and chemical protective clothing products sold into the Homeland Security Agency and military first responder markets accounted for the majority of the sales volume. PTF is on track to exceed annual sales of $60 million in 2014.

Acquired by Mission Ready in May 2012, Protect The Force is a strategic consulting firm specializing in providing leading manufacturers with relationship management, product development, acquisition & contracting expertise, and sales & marketing support geared towards selling to the U.S. Federal Government.  PTF is led by a team of industry veterans with extensive experience providing products, services and expertise to governments, first-responders and tactical markets.

Working alongside its diverse network of clients, authorized dealers, and strategic business consultants, PTF is providing personal protective equipment and first-responder equipment for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, & Nuclear (CBRN) defense, EBOLA, Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) defense, and Homeland Security. Over the last 7 years, Protect The Force has supported direct and indirect government sales for its clients in excess of $500 million.
