JaysonKandiah Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hello All! Hope everyone is good! Finally a trade member! Anyway, another question from this corner and that is, we are a fairly new company operating for nearly a year as a company and i work from home ATM with our own engineers sent out when installations come by. I just wanted to ask whether accreditation is worth it, and SSAIB or NSI Silver, I wanted to get silver but the way companies are split up between silver and gold is something i'm not too fond about. Dont get me wrong, My installs are great and ive heard before and the gear is brilliant aswell but the bad ones normally get pushed out of the trade because of their wrong doing to the customers. I want to go for silver first then ill go gold after but SSAIB or NSI Silver. what are everyone's experiences before and after accreditation and do customers demand it?

datadiffusion Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 but the bad ones normally get pushed out of the trade because of their wrong doing to the customers. Do they? Some right crooks in my old town still going strong. 10 years after I left. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterJames Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Personally I try to do the best I can for my customers, I am proud of my Gold badge and would recommend that everyone that wants to do the best they can to go for the Gold one. It seems like a lot more work in comparison but then thats the point isnt it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 For CCTV only it would surely be a millstone around the neck for absolutely no gain?

matthew.brough Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 For CCTV only it would surely be a millstone around the neck for absolutely no gain? I agree entirley. We have CCTV & 8418 CCTV. Anyone ever asked for it and did we need it to do the CCTV jobs we have? Never. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are talking CCTV only we have a few monitored CCTV systems that can only be Gold and because of this they are fairly lucrative. We have some celebs that will only choose Gold. We have several schools that had three surveys from three golds. To be fair, the majority of our CCTV customers probably didnt invite us because we are gold, but we still won the contract despite being more expensive than the non golds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
