  4. SGW Develops KPI’s for iPad Security Survey Software

    Leave a Comment

    Security Surveys, particularly ones where the site is large and complex often result in pages and pages of notes being taken by the security consultant / security auditor during time on site. In addition, hundreds of digital photographs are often taken too.

    The challenge; remembering which notes correlate to a particular photograph taken, particularly during busy periods when a security survey cannot be written up for a few days or week or more, after the site survey has taken place.

    In addition, key performance indicators (KPI’s) and standards often differ between individual countries, regions and corporate clients.

    To address the points raised above, SGW have developed iPad software to capture various security standards, check-lists and client specific requirements, to ensure consistency of reporting. This software is proving particularly useful for clients who have multiple sites, who want to ensure KPI’s and reporting remains consistent, irrespective of if the company deploys various different security consultants to visit the different sites contained within their portfolio.

    The software is able to list assignee’s and key dates / milestones where security improvement actions have been scheduled.

    The software can replace the old methods adopted by security practitioners, using a risk tracker MS Excel spreadsheet.
