“2024 was a record-breaking year for ORR Protection and a strong year for the fire alarm industry overall,” says Rick Reynolds, executive vice president, business development for the Louisville, Ky.-based integrator, specializing in fire. “Demand grew across mission-critical environments as organizations prioritized compliance, resiliency, and uptime protection. For ORR, revenue and net income reached all-time highs, driven by significant growth in sectors like data centers, power generation, connected communications, modular construction, and battery energy storage systems. Compared to 2023, we saw measurable increases in both new project volume and recurring revenue tied to service and monitoring.”
