Joined-up response

One Group. No Gaps.

Most businesses manage separate providers for systems maintenance, alarm monitoring and physical response — creating gaps, delays and finger-pointing when something goes wrong.

The SPS Group closes that loop. Your systems are installed and maintained by SPS Technical. Alarm and CCTV monitoring is provided through an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), with SPS Security's mobile response officers and keyholding ready to deploy where contracted.

Alarm Receiving Centre monitoring operation

Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) — 24/7 Monitoring

24/7 operational monitoring across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire & the Humber

SPS Technical

Designs, installs and maintains your fire alarms, CCTV, intruder alarms and access control. Provides 24/7 on-call engineers for emergency faults.

ARC Monitoring

The Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) monitors your systems continuously. Operators verify alarms, manage escalation and co-ordinate the response. SPS Security provides mobile response and keyholding where contracted.

SPS Security Response

SIA-licensed mobile officers attend your site after alarm activation. GPS-tracked, time-stamped and reported. Keyholding available for seamless access.

Four Layers of Protection

Each layer operates independently — but together they form a response capability no single-discipline provider can match.

24/7 Remote CCTV Monitoring

Your cameras are connected to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) for monitored CCTV to BS 8418. Every alarm-triggered event is reviewed by trained operators around the clock — verified, classified and escalated in seconds, not minutes.
