Celebrating its 17th Year, the Security Excellence Awards highlight the best people, projects and processes within the UK’s security sector.
Its high calibre judging panel comprises representatives from all areas of the security and fire sector, the world of academia and the policing sector.
The panel decided this year’s winners, who were then announced at the awards ceremony at the London Hilton on Park Lane on November 25th.
The winning entry featured a case study of how VPS, having been contacted by administrators EY, secured 51 CityLink depots stretching from Aberdeen to Southampton on New Year’s Eve.
