Abstract
Integration of security systems is a distinct possibility in the near future,
but rigid regulations pertaining to fire safety are restraining the move toward
integrated security. To make integration a reality, fire industry participants
must work toward assimilating fire systems with security and other systems
without compromising on reliability and safety. As fire systems are passive
whilst security systems require interaction, combining both could be a cause for
inherent conflicts.
This Frost & Sullivan strategic analysis of the integration of
infrastructure security systems with building automation systems (BAS) studies
the markets in the United States and Canada. This research service provides
comprehensive information -- on market trends, opportunities, industry
challenges, and strategic recommendations -- to aid participants in capitalizing
on opportunities of growth.
Standardization of Communication Technologies Key to Market Growth
As concerns over safety grow, capital invested is increasing significantly to
raise security standards. "Besides the impossibility of humanly managing
large building complexes, the lack of cross expertise is preventing
manufacturers and integrators from aggressively penetrating the markets,"
says the analyst of this research. "This has led to industry-wide efforts
to standardize communication practices that are likely to expand growth
potential for the integration markets." Efforts to increase knowledge on
integration will benefit industry participants vastly as information gained is
likely to enable application in other sectors, as well.
Merging Physical and Digital Security Improves Industrial Efficacies
Enterprises are now viewing physical and digital security as a single entity.
"To make convergence a reality, security management must be integrated with
existing business processes for managing facilities, personnel, and IT
systems," says the analyst. "Work toward vertical standardization of
data representation to enable communication between standard data models within
each associated industry such as physical security, electric utility, and others
is under way."
