Nexus Flight Operations Services has entered into a strategic partnership agreement with U.S.-based FAM International to provide its customers with tailored aviation security solutions. With its new operations centers in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, Nexus provides a range of flight support capabilities, such as flight dispatch, planning and scheduling for aircraft and crew, trip planning and a global concierge service.

Through the new agreement, Nexus can now offer security services as an option. "Security solutions are always critical to choose because you must place your trust in someone else," said Abdullah Al-Sayed, president and CEO of Nexus, which has offices throughout the Middle East and Asia. "Our partnership with FAM International will reassure our customers that we have chosen the best and most comprehensive solution for them."

FAM International, which is headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, has a long experience in security operations. Among the services it provides are aircraft security, assessment of hotels and other venues, ground transportation security and protection of executives. Through its global organization it provides regional knowledge and insight, and highly trained personnel who are well versed in low-profile security operations.
