The Security Industry Authority (SIA) has publicised a list of potential SIA Conformity Assessment Bodies for Business Licensing. SSAIB has been shortlisted and our scheme has recently been assessed by UKAS to ensure it meets the SIA’s requirements for Business Licensing.
SSAIB is a UKAS accredited, Certification Body for the security industry. If confirmed by the SIA as a Conformity Assessment Body for Business Licensing, companies seeking a business license(s) for the security service(s) they provide will be able to turn to SSAIB to help provide evidence of their competence. Demonstrating competence is a key SIA requirement that companies seeking a Business License will need to pay close attention to. One of the ways to achieve this is by obtaining Product Certification to our sector-specific scheme, which currently includes:
- BS 7499-Static Guarding and Mobile Patrols
- BS 7984-Key Holding and Response Services
- BS 7958-CCTV Management and Operation
- BS7858-Security Screening
- BS 7960-Door Supervision
We are also developing a similar scheme for Investigative Services (BS 102000)
