SSAIB Inspection Final Conclusion
The Inspector’s Audit document and report said:
“This Audit was undertaken using the SSAIB Security Systems Audit Checklists and the Audit Programme as agreed in the appointment letter.
The Inspection carried out was a limited inspection, which included audits of recently installed CCTV and Intruder Systems, selected areas were sampled as per the audit requirements, not every aspect of the installation has necessarily been checked. Hence where no deviations have been reported it does not follow that none exist.
None of the firm’s clients visited expressed any dissatisfaction with either the system or service provided.
All staff and Management continue to demonstrate their commitment to the certification process and compliance with the standards, from the Intruder and CCTV systems seen today the company have been seen to be complying with the SSAIB Security Scheme requirements for the scopes of certification and are working to a high standard, with all staff having a great understanding of the standards and the industry requirements and for this reason continued certification is recommended.”
