Based in Blue Ash, Ohio, LMG Holdings, Inc. operates as a key entity in the public safety sector, specializing in electronic monitoring and software solutions for the criminal justice industry. Founded in 1991, the company has established itself by providing technologies designed to prevent drunk driving. LMG Holdings was formerly known as LifeSafer Holdings, Inc.
The company's core business revolves around the provision of ignition interlock devices (IIDs). These court-mandated systems are installed in vehicles and require the operator to provide a breath sample to test for alcohol before the engine can start. The devices also conduct random retests while the vehicle is in operation. This technology primarily serves individuals who have been convicted of driving while impaired (DWI), allowing them to retain driving privileges while ensuring public safety. In addition to IIDs, LMG offers regulatory-compliant portable and in-home alcohol monitoring solutions, broadening its service scope within the alcohol testing market.
LMG Holdings functions as a holding company, operating through several market-leading brands, including LifeSafer, Monitech, and Guardian Interlock Systems. This structure allows the company to offer a variety of interlock devices and services across the United States and Canada, supported by a network of over 1,500 authorized service centers for device installation and maintenance. The company has pursued a growth strategy that includes strategic acquisitions, such as the 2014 purchase of A-Interlock, Inc. of New Mexico, and mergers with firms like Alcohol Monitoring Systems, Inc. and SCRAM Systems. This strategy has been supported by private equity partnerships, notably with Lineage Capital starting in December 2010 and later with The Riverside Company, which led a recapitalization in 2020 to fuel further growth.
