About SPS Technical — Our Story 

# Regional technical capability built on long-term client relationships. 

SPS Technical sits within a group that has been supporting clients across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the Humber since 1992. What began as a regional security operation has developed into a wider group providing security, technical services, monitoring, cleaning and support services.

Where We Came From

## Built around the need for reliable, accountable systems

SPS Technical has grown from the increasing need for reliable, accountable and properly maintained fire and security systems. Clients do not just need systems installed. They need those systems maintained, documented, monitored, repaired and reviewed over time.

Our engineers support fire alarm systems, CCTV systems, intruder alarms and access control across the region. Our work includes planned preventative maintenance, corrective maintenance, system takeovers, upgrades, commissioning, compliance support and technical advice.

The business is built around a simple idea: technical systems should not be left unmanaged after installation. They should be owned, maintained, tested, documented and improved throughout their life.

Our Focus Areas

Planned preventative maintenance across all system types

Corrective and reactive maintenance and fault response

System takeovers and inherited system remediation

Upgrades, commissioning and design support

Compliance documentation and certification support

Technical advice and long-term system planning
