Kings Secure Technologies awarded contract extension by Post Office Ltd

Post Office Ltd is a core part of the national infrastructure. As such, it’s essential that the operation’s network has the appropriate security controls in place to ensure that it’s not affected by issues that could impact the service it provides for customers, clients and the wider community.

With an expansive estate of over 11,500 Post Office branches, 15 Cash Centre Depots and three main admin offices, first-class delivery and compliance is of the utmost importance.

The two organisations have built a trusted partnership over the years. Kings Secure Technologies has consistently reviewed its first-class service, identifying opportunities to reduce cost and improve efficiencies in areas where the benefit could be reinvested in significant savings for the client.

Successful relationship

Bob Forsyth, CEO of Kings Secure Technologies, said: “We’re delighted to announce the extension of our contract with Post Office Ltd and the continuation of our successful relationship. The team at Kings Secure Technologies prides itself on having provided exceptional and reliable critical security services for the Post Office, keeping its Post Masters, assets, customers and clients secure through vigilance and proactive engagement.”

The director of property, network crime and equipment at Post Office Ltd responded: “The safety and security of our Post Masters, the public and our colleagues is the top priority for Post Office Ltd. Under the extended contract, Kings Secure Technologies will continue to be responsible for the provision of Property Security, Grapevine and Business Support Services across our extensive portfolio.”

The spokesperson continued: “During the initial tendering process, we were impressed by the quality and competitive value offered by Kings Secure Technologies, and also by its understanding of our business and requirements. We’re delighted to extend this contract and look forward to further developing our trusted relationship.”
