SIA Survey Respondents Bullish on Industry in Latest Security Market Index

SILVER SPRING, Md. – More than three-quarters of respondents in the latest Security Industry Association (SIA) Security Market Index survey offered a positive take on current business conditions.

The May-June Security Market Index found that 77% of the survey pool – which comprises industry leaders who represent a cross section of SIA membership – describe conditions at their company as “excellent” or “good,” with 34% reporting the highest rating, according to an association announcement.

A similar number – 78% – said they expect conditions to improve during the next three months, with 22% saying they will get “much better” and 56% predicting conditions would get “a little better,” the announcement says.

Inside the Latest Security Market Index Survey Results

When asked about the 2023 ISC West trade show – which took place March 28-31 in Las Vegas, more than one out of four describing the show as “one of the best – if not the best – ever” and more than half calling it an “excellent show,” according to the announcement, while less than 2% of respondents had a negative view of the event. SIA is the premier sponsor of ISC West and ISC East.

In the latest SMI report, which is supported by Wesco, more than one-third of security professionals rated current business conditions as being “excellent,” 43% said they were “good” and 18% said they were “average.”

The SMI measures security industry executives’ current status and future expectations through a select survey of SIA members. The Index’s goal is to provide a macro-view of confidence levels in the security industry every two months while closely examining six specific business measures:

  • Number of employees or hours worked
  • Marketing spending
  • Product production or service output
  • Capital equipment spending
  • R&D spending
  • Product or service sales

Special focuses of SIA’s May/June 2023 SMI include:

  • Predictions on a strong Q3 from the majority of respondents
  • Market analysis on indicators and job growth amid an expanding economy
  • Rave reviews and industry perspectives on ISC West 2023

Why Weapons Detection Systems Fail Without Proper Planning

The weapons detection market has exploded over the past three years, driven by heightened security concerns across every vertical market. Healthcare facilities, educational institutions, corporate campuses, and entertainment venues are all investing in advanced weapons screening technology. For security integrators, this represents significant opportunity – and significant risk. Unlike traditional security systems that can be “set and forget,” weapons detection implementations succeed or fail based on factors that extend far beyond technical installation. The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
