Entry to the UK Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPAs) is open through to October 4, 2021 and SSAIB are encouraging SSAIB-certified firms to consider entering.
The OSPAs provide the opportunity to highlight the best companies, people and projects that have made a significant contribution in safeguarding communities.
As well as providing the opportunity to say thank you to those in frontline security roles who have demonstrated innovation, flexibility, dedication, and resourcefulness in responding to changing - and sometimes challenging - situations.
Entries are free to submit – ahead of the October 4 deadline - and nominations are invited in 16 categories.
Nominations will be scored by an independent panel of judges - including SSAIB chief executive Alex Carmichael - all of whom have been chosen by supporting associations and special interest groups to represent them. The process is strict and robust ensuring that all entries have a fair and equal chance of success.
Winners will be revealed at a black-tie dinner to take place on February 24, 2022 at the Royal Lancaster London.
The last 18 months have seen both challenges and opportunities for the security industry – as security providers have stepped up to the mark to carry out tasks that would not normally have been expected of them.
Entering the OSPAs provides the opportunity to showcase the exceptional work that is taking place and - as a supporting association – SSAIB urge you all to submit at least one nomination, be it a company, team or individual who has demonstrated outstanding performance.
