CSP were incredibly proud to be able to support the New Year’s Day Parade along the streets of London's West End this New Year’s Day.
With the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 fast approaching and taking place in England and Wales between May 30 and July 14 across numerous cricket grounds, CSP were proud to be able to demonstrate the ATG HVM temporary solution to the team at Edgbaston. It was clear from the attendees at the presentation that crowd safety for fans was of paramount importance both on arrival and departure, who were impressed by both the system and the team installing. Installation was achieved within a targetted 20 minute period and we hope to be able to support the wider event to a successful conclusion later this year. Well done to Mark Bouchier and his team for an excellent demonstration.
In November, CSP was successfully re-accredited with the SIA’s Approved Contractor Scheme (ACS) through a rigorous external audit process. The ACS is a voluntary scheme, operated by the Security Industry Authority and is designed to promote best practice and deliver continuous improvement across the sector. There is a scoring and benchmarking system that pitches businesses against a recognised scale of achievement. The scheme is wide ranging with 9 separate categories of criteria for companies to compare their performance against; Strategy, Processes, Commercial Relationship Management, Financial Management, Resources, People, Leadership, Corporate Social Responsibility and Results, are all criteria that companies wishing to join must agree to be audited against.
A number of years ago, CSP invested in training and accreditation of both our team and the company for CSAS (Community Safety Accreditation Scheme), which is awarded by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) in a number of constabularies.
CSP trialled the SurfaceGuard HVM (Hostile Vehicle Mitigation) system for The RFU at Twickenham Stadium at the England v Japan fixture this November. An interesting installation that was slightly different from the norm. Cardinal Vaughan car park operates on match days to support the high demands of parking and is the main location for tailgate picnics. Pedestrians access the West Car Park and Stadium via a bridge from Cardinal Vaughan, and this was a route felt would benefit from a HVM solution as a vehicle could access the bridge.
We will be exhibiting at Olympia at The International Security Expo 2018 this year on November 28th/29th. The stand will be manned across the 2 days by Scott Metcalfe, Ben Burrows, Richard Mulcaster, Mark Bouchier, Jazz Binning and Tony Nikolic. The International Security Expo (ISE) provides a unique platform for the entire security industry to come together to source products, share experience and gain the knowledge needed to address current and emerging security challenges.
