THE SSAIB HAS UNDERGONE A RIGOROUS INSPECTION BY UKAS and has been awarded extensions to its Scope of Accreditation to include:
  • Static site guarding and mobile patrol services (BS 7499)

  • Key holding and response services (BS 7984)

  • CCTV management and operation (BS 7958).

The SSAIB (Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board) now holds accreditation in the areas of intruder alarms, access control, CCTV, alarm receiving centres, manned guarding and key holding and response services.

   For these activities, the SSAIB now says its scope of accreditation is wider than any other similar certification body in the security sector, thereby enabling SSAIB to offer a fully comprehensive service package.

   Chief executive officer Geoff Tate said: "Our intention was to build on our existing UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) recognised certification schemes for electronic security systems, CCTV and alarm receiving centres, thereby extending the range of services we offer to the security industry.

"The extension to our Scope of Accreditation demonstrates our commitment to provide certification schemes for a broad range of manned security services.

"We can now offer certification schemes complemented by ISO 9001: 2000 quality management systems."
