Group Solutions
KST delivers integrated fire & security solutions through our in-house service divisions, providing our customers with improved service levels, value for money and brand protection.
KST is a progressive security provider challenging traditional methods of security provision to evolve and overcome the demands of a world increasingly reliant on technology and data. By adapting our approach and investing in technology we are leading the security industry in being able to effectively develop solutions tailored to individual business needs.
By utilising the most innovative and up to date technologies, KST consistently reduces risk to business continuity, improves safety & compliance and increases clients’ profitability.
Through dedicated account management, drawing upon service line expertise, we provide a seamless, integrated security solution underpinned by a real-time management information reporting platform, QuidvisRisk, to give visibility of performance against defined outputs.
Working closely with you, we shall design bespoke security solutions which best suit your specific requirements and overcome your challenges.
We use value maps to develop each solution, giving:
- A detailed understanding of your business objectives
- The issues you’re experiencing from a security perspective that are preventing you achieving these aims
- The enablers required by KST to overcome the issues
- The solution itself
- The benefits

Meet the Group Solutions Team
Our Group Solutions Team will work consultatively and collaboratively with you from initial concept discussions through design, implementation, mobilisation, delivery phase and into ongoing continuous improvement. This means that both parties are inherently invested and integrated at strategic, tactical and operational levels from the beginning, building trust, respect and belief in the solution enabling it to succeed from day one. This negates the risk of tendering to suppliers that don’t understand your real needs and will invariably submit a bid based purely on price.
We believe the key benefits of this approach are:
- Maximising the best return for your budget
- Collaborative approach evolves into long term strategic partnership
- Protects your brand and increases profitability
