SV3 from Building Intelligence Named Best New Product at SIA's 2014 New Product Showcase

SV3 from Building Intelligence Inc. took the top honor at the Security Industry Association's 2014 New Product Showcase (NPS), winning the coveted Best New Product Award at the NPS awards ceremony at ISC West last Wednesday.

According to Building Intelligence, SV3 means secure visitors, vehicles and vendors to a facility. It is "a cloud or enterprise software application that integrates with local access control, handheld devices, license plate and driver's license readers. Designed to streamline Security operations, SV3 validates the identity of the 3Vs for approval of their access onto a campus, into a building, parking structure or loading dock area. SV3 uniquely addresses back door & access point risks which are often ignored or extremely manual."

"Each year, the companies competing in SIA's New Product Showcase at ISC West present the leading-edge security solutions that are shaping the industry," said SIA CEO Don Erickson. "These new technologies and solutions are the drivers that are moving the security industry forward, and I congratulate Building Intelligence on their win at this year's NPS."

Since its inception in 1979, the NPS has been the security industry's premier awards-based marketing program. This year's NPS Program had 105 entries from 88 companies.

In addition, The Judges' Choice Award was presented to Australian company dFENCE for its dFENCE ballistic shield product. The NPS judges presented awards in 24 product and service categories, and they also presented six honorable mention awards in six categories.
