Security Industry Authority (SIA)

The Security Industry Authority (SIA) regulates the private security industry in the UK

The SIA offer two licenses:

The first is the licensing of individuals in the private security industry. With this licensing, private security companies are able to hire only those who are qualified and fully trained.

The second is the Approved Contractor Scheme (ACS) which assesses companies with independent criteria. With ACS, supplier companies abide by a core set of standards. Once accredited, companies achieve the Approved Contractor status. This independent accreditation is made available for purchasers to ensure the company’s commitment to quality.

JVR Consultancy offer your company all the support which is required to obtain any of the SIA accreditations mentioned above. Whether you are looking to obtain a new SIA licence or renew your current licence, we can support with both. Furthermore, we offer support with achieving the SIA ACS accreditation.
