Astute - The Best Security Company in the UK !!

Dear All,

Can you please forward this news to your various teams – its also posted on the Astute Blog site.

A superb effort on the ACS Audit from all concerned ensured we passed with flying colours. The Auditor feedback was that we were “the best security guarding company” he had audited. Not only can we now use the SIA and ACS logos this provides us with a valuable tool in business development and gains us independent kudos. Our insurance premiums have been reduced for example.

The summary feedback opening section of the report is excellent with high performance cited across all areas includinh mentions for Operations, Finance, HR, Group and IT functions. Its easy to miss the fact that we are really good at what we do until you compare us independently to the competition – great effort everyone !!
