Perpetuity Research launches survey on single and bundled security provision

A much debated issue in the security sector is the relative pros and cons of procuring and managing security as a single service, as opposed to bundling it with other FM service provision. Perpetuity Research has announced the launch of a survey addressing this issue, as part of a major study to better understand the differences in approach.

They are inviting three groups to take part in the on-line survey:

–          Facilities Managers, involved in the management of security services

–          Security Managers and Procurement Specialists, involved in the purchase of security services

–          Directors and Managers of companies supplying security services and goods

The survey is anonymous and should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The deadline for responses is the 1^st March 2013. The on-line survey can be accessed at:
