Security companies and law enforcement agencies work together as partners, sharing information and communicating frequently
to protect public safety and serve their communities. The Security Industry Alarm Coalition (SIAC) and the False
Alarm Reduction Association (FARA) have created the POLICE DISPATCH QUALITY program to promote cooperative best
practices, to reduce unnecessary dispatches and give officers the most complete information when responding to alarms.
We are looking for companies that exemplify an all out effort to reduce false alarms from implementing ECV to utilizing ANSI CP-01 compliant control panels, training customers and working closely with law enforcement. The best overall collaboration
will be honored with the North American PDQ Award for 2008. Co-sponsored by Security Sales & Integration and Honeywell Security!
The winning security company
will receive $1000 from Honeywell so a team representative may attend the awards
ceremony in Las Vegas at ISC West.
Monitoring and/or installing alarm dealers in the U.S. and
Canada must mail an application postmarked by 12/31/2007
Outstanding program ideas will be highlighted in Security
Sales & Integration Magazine, in security association publications
and their web sites and at ISC West in Las Vegas.
Security companies and local police officials should meet
now to form partnerships in public safety.
