STRATEGIC. SUPPORTED. SECURE.
A National Integrator With A Global Reach
Parallel Technologies is growing through strategic partnerships that expand our expertise and geographic reach. Together, our companies operate as one team delivering integrated technology solutions nationwide.
OUR HISTORY
More Than 40 Years in the Making
Parallel Technologies got its start in 1983 as a small voice and data cabling company in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. Over the decades that followed, we grew into physical security, data center infrastructure, and intelligent building solutions, expanding from a regional cabling provider into a national integrator. In 2025, D/A Central became part of Parallel Technologies. In 2026, American Datapath followed. Together, we operate as one company, with one team, serving clients nationwide.

FAQs
-
Are you tied to one manufacturer?
No. We're a multi-platform integrator, which means we design every solution around your environment and requirements rather than a single vendor's product line. That gives you an unbiased recommendation instead of a predetermined answer.
-
What do your partnership tiers mean?
Partnership tiers like Genetec Unified Elite or Axis Gold reflect the level of training, certification, and hands-on experience our team has with that platform. Higher tiers mean deeper expertise and faster access to manufacturer support.
-
How do you decide which platform to recommend?
We start with your environment, requirements, and goals, not a sales quota. Our team evaluates which combination of manufacturers best fits your facility, budget, and long-term plans before making a recommendation.
-
Can I purchase through a state contract?
Yes. Parallel Technologies holds pre-approved state and cooperative purchasing contracts that let public sector organizations skip a lengthy RFP process. Visit our Contract Vehicles page for details on which contracts we hold.
-
Do you provide support after installation?
Yes. Our relationship doesn't end at installation. We provide ongoing managed services, client success management, and long-term support to keep your systems performing as your organization grows and changes.
-
Can you work with our existing system?
In most cases, yes. Even if your existing system was installed by another provider, our multi-platform expertise means we can often support, expand, or integrate it rather than requiring a full replacement.
-
What if our system or manufacturer isn't listed here?
Reach out and let us know what you're working with. Our team evaluates each situation individually, and in many cases we can still provide service or a clear path to a supported platform.
-
Can I see these technologies in person?
Yes. Our Innovation Lab lets you test and compare integrated security, communications, and building technology in a real-world environment before you commit to a purchase decision.
