Making sure you stay up to speed with the latest products and services in the security market is crucial for installers … but a new event in London is designed to keep you ahead of the game. Total Workplace Management is aimed at all those involved in the security, fire, FM and health & safety markets – in fact anyone working in installing or managing building systems and services.

Taking place at Earls Court 2 from October 11-13, TWM will be an opportunity for installers to explore the latest products and services from a host of leading security suppliers including such world-renowned names as Sony, Bosch, Honeywell Security, Mitsubishi and Samsung. Installers will be especially interested in an area of the show called the "CCTV/IP Zone" where they will be able to see the latest products and services in this sector.

The exhibition, organised by CMP Information, will bring buyers responsible for the maintenance, running and management of workplaces together with a variety of leading suppliers from security, facilities management, health & safety and fire prevention industries.

Looking at the key areas

The floor of the show will be divided into four key areas:

• Boardroom – where strategic decisions are made relating to the performance and management of an organisation's physical assets.
• Work – where the core business and day-to-day activities of the organisation are supported and enabled.
• Front of House – the visible side of workplace management, where service providers interface with clients, end users and the workforce.
• Back of House – the security, infrastructure, networks, M&E and control rooms of buildings.
