Sustainability

At VIP Security, all facets of business must be sustainable. To us, this take several forms...

Financial

Whilst we firmly believe we offer our customer the best value systems, offering the longest possible life cycle and thus lowering the total costs of ownership; we do so to also make a profit; so we might not be the cheapest (in the short term). However, our business view is long term, and selling profitable projects allows us to grow the company, and thus provide the support for the product our customers buy for many years to come.

Customers

We only offer our customers systems we know we can service for the long haul. Not only that, we ask you questions at design time so that we can optimise the system so it can grow with you. We typically look 5 years ahead, and match systems that can expand to meet those future needs. This is often done for minimal extra outlay, but means the money you spend today is not lost tomorrow. Again, we might not be the cheapest on the day, but two to five years later and our customers often thank us for our forward vision.

Business Systems

While our business is built on people, our business systems are continually being refined so we can ensure our staff deliver our systems consistently. While not ISO accredited, our systems allow us to be more robust, examples of this are...

  • Offsite server backups
  • Standby business servers
  • Dual telecommunication lines
  • Site Backups and organised crash recovery folders for each site
  • Extensive as built manuals (reduces the time to diagnose and fix faults)
  • Administration systems and manuals

Business Insurance

We have worked extensively on identifying any exposures, and invest in all the appropriate insurances to ensure our client’s interests are covered.

Social

VIP Security realises that we are just a small part of society.  As funding for charities becomes hard to find, VIP Security has supported the following charities and clubs.

  • Sunshine Rotary Club
  • Special Childrens Christmas Party
  • Christchurch Squash Club
  • Canterbury Coastguard
