The Irish Security Industry
Association (ISIA) has launched the details of the ISIA Awards 2013 which will
be held on the 23rd November 2013.
The Irish Security Industry
Association (ISIA) each year highlights the achievements of the private
security industry at its Annual Awards.
The ISIA Awards 2013 will be held in the Ritz Carlton, Powerscourt, Co.
Wicklow and is promising to be our biggest event to date. “The key to the success of the ISIA awards is
the way it celebrates the outstanding achievements of member companies and
their people” said Sheenagh McCullagh, President of the ISIA.
This year the ISIA is thrilled to announce two new award
categories. For the first time ever, the
ISIA will celebrate those locksmiths who are valued by their clients. Sarah O’Donnell, Communications Director
explained, “the ISIA Locksmith of the Year award is really a customer’s choice
award. ISIA locksmiths make the
nomination survey available to their client base and it is the customer that
selects the winner. We are really
pleased we were in a position to introduce this category as it should increase
awareness about the importance of this area in the overall security
strategy”.
Popular individual awards will of course be present again this year such
as the Security Officer of the Year Award, Event Security Person Award and the
Security Supervisor of the Year Award introduced for the first time last
year. The ISIA Awards 2013 will also
recognise Electronic Security as part of the event with a category introduced
for these individuals. “Last year we
started to recognise people in the electronic security sector with the ISIA FÁS
Apprentice award, but this really opens things up to those long standing
professionals in the industry who have not come through and apprenticeship”
said McCullagh.
The Innovation in Security award introduced in 2011 was introduced to
encourage companies in private security to foster a culture of innovation. This award will feature again in 2013. The past two recipients of this award were
Niscayah (now Stanley Security Solutions) in 2011 and last year’s winner was
TDS. “We are really looking forward to
this year’s submissions. Innovation is a
recognised component for success and it is has been wonderful to see how many
companies is the security industry recognise this” said O’Donnell.
Nominations are open to the members of the Irish Security Industry
Association and must be submitted by the 4th October 2013. Sponsorship packages are still available.
