The Challenge of Tac-Tote
I personally feel that it is critical to get these products into the hands of our Police Officers and other National Infrastructure Assets sooner than later. Each provides a value and a common sense but reliable means of equipment storage and deployment.
That being said, whenever there is a sales pitch to be heard, most peoples brains go somewhere else. It’s just human nature for us to be skeptical of the snake oil salesman who is selling the latest and greatest Tactical Products of his or her own design under a label that they have never even heard of. The sales pitch alone is a challenge in and of itself, however given that the Tac-Tote products being promoted are not typical, it makes their promotion that much more of a challenge.
The mission for the Command Vehicle is a simple one, that is to be able to demonstrate the Tac-Tote products at any time of day, in any weather conditions, from inside or outside of the vehicle, from any angle outside of the vehicle, and do so while travelling around the country.
The Important Part:
This vehicle will provide both a visual and physical representation of work environments that many of our National Security Assets and Law Enforcement Officers encounter in their day to day routines. The Command Vehicle will be the demonstration platform that allows potential consumers to see, feel, and deploy each product in a relatable environment and equally as important be able to do that at any location, day or night.
Nuclear Power plants:
Nuclear Power Plants have always been limited when purchasing tactical response equipment for their security teams. Typically they will purchase gear which is currently available in the market place, and not gear that is specifically designed for the unique purpose of protecting a Nuclear Power Plant. This industry for years has had to settle on what can work for them instead of buying what will work best for them. Tac-Tote products take advantage of the very unique attributes of a Nuclear Power plants defensive strategies, its limitations, and its strengths.
As stated above, the best way to fully appreciate each product is to see and feel how they work and in a relatable environment. Security measures at our nations Nuclear Power Stations make it difficult to gain access (understandably so) therefor it will be much more effective to offer and be able to show a security manager or their staff the Tac-Tote product line outside of the plants security infrastructure and in a manner in which they can relate to. The Command Vehicle will provide the perfect method to do this.
Law Enforcement:
The video below is a product demonstration of the Tac-Tote LE. In this case the vehicle being used is a Police Cruiser being up fitted at Duggan Vehicle Equipment in Worcester, MA. The Command Vehicle will serve as the most ideal demonstration platform once it’s complete so that any products can be shown/demonstrated in a similar fashion as seen below to a Police Officer, Emergency Management Facility, Nuclear Security Manager, etc etc. at any location available.
What does your Police Vehicle look like?
The intention of the Command Vehicle is to be able to replicate as many scenarios encountered by Law Enforcement as possible and be able to demonstrate the value of the Tac-Tote products effectively and as efficiently as possible.
Overlanding:
When being organized and having an effective storage plan is critical, having the right gear is a must. The rapidly growing Overland Industry can benefit from the Tac-Tote product line just as much as any other industry. The Tac-Tote Command Vehicle will be able to travel around the country to promote not only its own products but also every single sponsor that made the vehicle possible. Although the initial purpose of the vehicle is to provide awareness to quality and potentially life saving products for the men and women of our Law Enforcement / National Security Assets, I believe the products provide value in other lifestyles as well. The rigors of an off road / outdoor lifestyle require unique solutions to everyday situations. The Command Vehicle will provide you Overlanding folks the opportunity to see first hand what some electronic mounting solutions that are there from both RAMMounts and Havis, tire inflation options from ARB, Bumpers from FABFOURS, and much more.
