WeSuite, the creator of award-winning sales management software for security technology providers, is thrilled to announce its strategic integration with System Surveyor. The pioneer platform for site surveys and system design. Security integrators often face the challenge of helping their customers visualise and fully understand proposed solutions during the sales process.  Streamlining proposal process This powerful integration enables users to seamlessly link one or multiple System Surveyor surveys directlyBy integrating the site survey and design directly into the written scope of work within the proposal, customers can easily verify that the solution meets their specific needs. Proposals with clear, well-defined scopes of work streamline the decision-making process, making it faster and easier for customers to sign on the dotted line. This powerful integration enables WeSuite users to seamlessly link one or multiple System Surveyor surveys directly to estimates within the WeSuite platform. The partnership enhances proposal documents by automatically incorporating System Surveyor layouts into specified proposal pages, ensuring consistent, professional presentations that showcase system designs with precision. Seamless system integration “We’re excited to launch this integration with System Surveyor because it’s a natural fit,” said Tracy Larson, President of WeSuite. “WeSuite ensures precision and profitability in estimating and automates generation of proposal and contracts, while System Surveyor brings the design to life.” “Together, our platforms streamline the documentation and management of systems from sales through delivery and ongoing account management." Optimising workflows "This integration with System Surveyor and WeSuite is a great next step to streamline the sales process," said Maureen Carlson, Co-Founder and President of System Surveyor. "Our customer communities want to put their best foot forward to provide a professional design and an easy-to-understand, accurate proposal.” “Together, our platforms enable system integrators to more effectively and efficiently capitalise on the incredible opportunity to serve their customers in a growth market.”

System Surveyor, the pioneer in digital site surveys and system design, announced the promotion of Maureen Carlson to President.

In the physical security marketplace, artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved beyond the novelty phase. The emphasis has now shifted to the more practical aspects of implementing AI technology. That a system implements AI is no longer impressive in and of itself. The question becomes: What can this AI system do for me? How can it improve my physical security stance? We asked our Expert Panel Roundtable: How is artificial intelligence (AI) transforming physical security?

In many cases, architectural design and layout dictate optimal placement of security devices like cameras, access control readers, and sensors. Poor design can lead to blind spots, reduced coverage, and ineffective surveillance. However, planning that involves all the various stakeholders can maximise both security and design elements. We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: When are building design and physical security systems complementary? When are they at odds?

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionised many industries, including physical security. By connecting physical devices to the internet, IoT technology offers significant enhancements to security systems. Benefits include real-time monitoring, remote access, and the utility of new devices such as temperature and humidity sensors. At the same time, IoT devices come with challenges, including greater cybersecurity vulnerability. We asked this week's Expert Panel Roundtable: How is the Internet of Things (IoT) impacting the physical security marketplace?
