CALCULATING THE COST OF OWNERSHIP
Panasonic is set to introduce a
total cost of ownership calculator
at IFSEC 2017, comparing the
lifetime cost of security cameras
from leading manufacturers to
determine which provides the best
value.
It comes as part of a new direction the
company is taking in the security market,
encouraging integrators and end users to see
that the traditional approach of specifying a
requirement and requesting a box price doesn’t
actually give an idea of the true lifetime cost of
the typical CCTV system.
With new suppliers entering the market with
cheap security systems, the attraction to them is
obvious. But the initial purchase and
installation cost is only the start. For a truly
accurate comparison, the total cost of ownership
needs to be taken into account, including a
thorough appraisal of ongoing maintenance
costs, rather than just the first initial investment.
As a platform for exposure at the show, the
company has sponsored the Security
Management Theatre, where Panasonic will be
taking part in a manufacturer panel discussion
on the future of video surveillance. In addition
Panasonic will also be speaking about cyber
security, against a backdrop of the increased
threat of hacking and tampering especially in
light of recent high-profile incidents.
In addition the company will be hosting
exclusive lunch and learn sessions with preregistered
attendees, and are set to take place
alongside meetings every day during the show
across the three days at London’s ExCeL.
