CCTV news, Global MSC encourage End user involvement

We talked sometime back about the need for Installers and End Users to involve Manufacturers in the supply/decision chain.

Recently, a great one day seminar pretty much did that…………… organised by Global MSC, a security consultancy from Bristol, put together  a one day event in Newcastle that was attended by all kinds of key decision makers from Councils, Local Authorities, Education, Medical and Police organisations………….a series of keynote speeches on current, relevant topics within our industry, were accompanied by refreshment breaks and a superb lunch!

At the same time, a rather well packed conference room was brimming with new Technology from all sorts of Security Manufacturers – CCTV, Intruder, Access Control etc…………and these seemed to focus on Megapixel and HD technology

Talking to the Manufacturers, they commented on the value of being close to the right people, with a captive audience to demonstrate their Products and Services…………….End Users appreciated the focused approach to keeping it local, personalised, the right size and the right layout – unlike IFSEC !

Installers were able to exhibit with their partner Manufacturers safe in the knowledge that everyone knew everyone in the chain!

We believe this should be repeated more often throughout the UK (Global MSC have already announced another Seminar for March 2011 in Bristol) – it may not replace IFSEC, but it just might allow the triangle partnerships a chance to flourish!
