The Leveson Inquiry – No time for apathy!

Posted in Ethics and Industry Professional Standards, Investigations, News, Security News on February 8th, 2012 by Andy Redhead – Be the first to comment

The Leveson Inquiry has been ongoing now for a period of several weeks and although not a daily lead story anymore, hardly surprising as already there has been damming evidence of press malpractice, it is slowly unearthing information that hopefully will see the Press Complaints Commission swept away and a new truly independent body be [...]

What our clients say

Security is a serious issue with no insurance cover for stress and loss of sentimental value let alone 

Security is a serious issue. There is no insurance that covers for stress, losses of sentimental value,  injury or even loss of life - Andy and the directors of Sec-Tech were a warm and welcome choice in the shadowy world of close personal and asset protection - their professionalism is borne out by their high profile contracts yet low profile presence which is what security should be all about - 'reliable protection not cold intrusion'

They can be recommended for the job in hand no matter how big or complex'

W Kidd

Managing Director -  The All Group of Companies.

Sec-Tech delivered a bespoke, discreet and confidential security plan to protect the Intellectual Property of patent protected dedicated technology that was developed over a period of ten years. The company's professionalism and integrity was second to none and their services have been invaluable to my organisation. Sec-Tech also provided the executives of the company with specific security advice and training including when travelling overseas specifically to the Middle East. I cannot speak highly enough of the Sech-Tech team, its strategy, planning and operational conduct.

The nature of PR means that you work hard to create a positive spin for your clients, but no such enterprises are necessary when it comes to the work carried out by Sec-Tech.

I have used the company on both a professional and personal basis and the level of service and the discretion employed in getting the information you need is incomparable.

The credentials of those employed by Sec-Tech are impeccable – but that only tells half the story.

A grasp of your requirements, a sympathetic but professional approach and quick and effective results are just some of the reasons why I always come back to Sec-Tech - and why I’ve no hesitation in recommending them to other clients, colleagues and friends who need these kind of services.

Even as the company has grown and deservedly won bigger and more prestigious clients they still have time to give smaller (and much less lucrative!) jobs their dedicated attention.

I have been overwhelmed – and delighted – with the results provided to me and have been able to make highly effective use of the information.

In a job where promotion of clients is what we do, it is a pleasure to be able to hand-on-heart recommend an organisation and promise that no money has changed hands for doing so!

We've used Sec Tech on numerous occasions to protect high value goods in transit and also for family security briefs for the Company Directors regarding office and home security. We have always found them to be discreet and considerate to the people around them, professional and effective. The training and advice they have given us is a big reassurance which you can't really put a value on.

Paul Swords - MD - Skye IT

"I was first introduced to Andy Redhead and his team at Sec-Tech about four years ago via the recommendation of a trusted business associate. At the time there was an issue with a part of my business in the UK that required a discreet professional solution. Andy and his team provided that solution in a swift and comprehensive manner. Since then his team have delivered both close protection, investigative and surveillance work for me in the UK, Europe, South Africa and Mozambique to protect my business and investment interests. If you have a security issues or problems that require addressing then I recommend you contact Sec-Tech, where they will have the solution you are looking for and give you the security of being able to sleep at night should you require them to protect you or your property from people who think they have a right to what is actually yours!"

Alistair Flanagan (Serial entrepreneur)

My UK based international logistics company was recently faced with significant downsizing and re-structuring in order to survive. This resulted in about 70 redundancies and around 50 tractor units and many more trailers having to be returned to finance companies. All this had to happen whilst the remainder of the company continued to operate and trade. I knew that we needed help to continue trading safely and to ensure the safety of my staff and fellow Directors.
Sec-Tech UK had been recommended to me. They came, listened and gave me advice and recommendations. We took the recommendations and for two weeks their staff dealt with everything for us. They looked after us, my staff, my warehouses, stock, the wagon and trailer fleet, in fact they took all of my headaches away. The security team from Sec Tech were consumate professionals from start to finish I can't recommend them highly enough.

Having used Sec-Tech UK Limited for the first time on an automotive event I would not hesitate using them again - from the moment I left the venue I knew that everything was in the safest of hands.
In today's marketplace it is rare to work with such a professional company that immediately understands exactly what is required from the client.
It has been an absolute pleasure working with the Sec-Tech team, all are excellent ambassadors for your organisation and I look forward to working with them again soon.

We have been working with Sec-Tech since 2008. Andy Redhead and his team have listened to and been responsive to our particular security needs – they understand how we work and how they can support us. I have always found them courteous, effective and unfailingly professional and they provide us with the reassurance we need to be able to do our job.
