As you would expect from a long-established, widely respected and trusted security company, we operate with the full approval of the Security Industry Authority (SIA)
For your complete confidence, our Key Guards have been independently and stringently assessed to ensure they provide an excellent quality of service and operate to high professional standards.
In addition, we operate in compliance with:
- BS EN ISO 9001:2008 (Quality Systems);
- BS 7858 (Security Screening);
- BS 7984 (Keyholding and Response Services).
- All our Key Guards are licensed with the SIA (Security Industry Authority) and we are members of the SIA Approved Contractors Scheme.
The SIA
The independent Security Industry Authority was set up by the government in 2001 to raise the standard of professionalism throughout the security industry.
Its licensing requirements are legally enforceable and aim to prevent unsuitable or poorly trained people from entering the private security industry.
CMS Keyholding operates within the high standards now specified by the SIA since our inception two decades ago. We welcome the fact that our approach is now officially recognised by the SIA, and that the high standards of professionalism we have always expected of ourselves and our staff are now an industry-wide requirement. We are members of the SIA’s Approved Contractors Scheme.
