SuperCom lands first Illinois county monitoring contract
SuperCom says the contract is its first in Illinois and expands its U.S. footprint to 20 new states since mid-2024.
SuperCom says an Illinois county sheriff's office selected its PureOne GPS technology for a newly established work-release program, giving the company its first county-level electronic monitoring contract in the state.
The company said the system will monitor participants while they are outside the county jail. SuperCom said the contract adds another U.S. jurisdiction to its footprint as agencies launch monitoring programs for the first time.
According to the company's release, the contract was awarded after standard field tests and will run on a recurring revenue model. SuperCom said training and deployment are scheduled to begin in October 2026, with PureOne serving as the program's electronic monitoring platform from launch.
SuperCom identifies itself as a provider of e-Government, IoT and cybersecurity solutions. In the release, President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi said the Illinois award expands the company's U.S. footprint into another new state and supports a newly established program. He also said PureOne can replace legacy systems and serve agencies that are starting electronic monitoring for the first time.
The company said it has secured more than 45 new U.S. electronic monitoring contracts since mid-2024 and more than 20 national project wins in Europe. It also said its electronic monitoring business grew at an approximate 30% compound annual rate over the four-year period ending in 2025, while EBITDA rose at an approximate 47% annual rate over the same stretch. SuperCom said second-quarter 2026 EBITDA grew approximately 58% year over year.
The release also describes PureOne as an all-in-one GPS tracking bracelet for continuous indoor and outdoor location monitoring, with tamper detection and dynamic geo-fence alerts. It says the device is compatible with other tools in SuperCom's PureSecurity suite.
The company said it has operated since 1988.
The planned October 2026 training and deployment is the next step for the Illinois program.
