Pointer. Security and Fire Systems for Ports and Airports

Pointer Engineer

Pointer has significant experience in managing risk in security integration projects at major transport hubs including sea and air ports.

These skills have been developed with many years experience as prime contractor on high profile national and international projects.

Ports

The need for enhanced, quality-assured security systems within port environments is twofold. On the one hand, there is a need for compliance with the ISPS code. (ISPS = International Ships & Ports Security.) On the other, there is the need to have coverage stay on top of illegal activity which might take place on site (running the whole gamut from terrorist activity to petty crime) as well as environmental enforcement. A Pointer solution addresses both needs.

Make Pointer your Front Line

We're all about long-term partnerships, long-term solutions. We're specialists, and we're already undertaking large ports projects at key sites in England, Scotland and Wales, including a large scale project on behalf of Forth Ports.

Airports

We have been working at airports both air-side and land-sde since 1997. Over that time, the threats have evolved as has the technology to combat them. There is a constant threat of disruption, criminal or terrorist activity and the consequential loss of revenue. Recent projects include upgrade work on the main terminal at Edinburgh Airport and Larnaca Airport.

Edinburgh Airport

In the current climate, people are being made more accountable for their business decisions and we already work with a number of major airport clients, both in the UK and overseas (see our Larnaca Airport Case Study) in order to protect their reputations, front-line.

We're specialists in the provision of systems which mitigate risk. As prime contractor, system design, project managers and maintainers for previous major works, we have utilised the Prince2 project management methodology. We have qualified Prince2 practitioners and other members of the project and account management team experienced in working within a Prince2 environment.

Service and Maintenance

Over the past ten years we have built up a strong portfolio of works. From that we have developed a very strong service and maintenance package which focuses on consistent service delivery, measurement through key performance indicators (KPIs) and prioritisation of upgrades and repairs.
