Welcome to the June edition of our newsletter. This month we focus on our work in the security sector. We have features on accrediting your supply chain security, developing a Security Operational Plan, and a major new training contract for BAE and Reliance. Additionally we look at the importance of evaluation with a particular focus on the need to evaluate drug and alcohol interventions and the benefits evaluation research can bring. In our next issue we will look in more detail at the different types of evaluation research and how our approach to evaluation may be able to help you.

Successful pilot course run for BAE
Perpetuity are pleased to announce that following a successful pilot course, Reliance and BAE have contracted Perpetuity to train over 200 security officers at BAE sites across the UK.
The Specialist Site Security - Defence Sites course is a bespoke course designed by Perpetuity to specifically to meet the training requirements of Reliance security officers working at BAE sites. Defence sites are often regarded as one of the most challenging and critical environments in which to work and this course gives officers the additional knowledge and skills they need to successfully meet those challenges.

Review of the Derby Drug Intervention Programme (DIP)
 The team at Perpetuity are pleased to announce their success in obtaining a new piece of work commissioned by Derby Community Safety Partnership (DCSP) to undertake a review of the Derby DIP. The review will include a series of interviews with DIP clients and local stakeholders to gather feedback on the programme including its key successes, weaknesses and any recommendations for improvement. The findings from the review will be available to the partnership early autumn and will be used to inform the future development of the programme.

Why evaluation research is so important
The systematic and objective evaluation of interventions and products is one of the services provided by Perpetuity. We conduct evaluations and reviews across a wide range of disciplines including substance misuse, education, housing, community safety, crime prevention and security.
The importance of this type of work was recently emphasised by the National Treatment Agency (NTA) in the guidance on Young People's Specialist Substance Misuse Treatment: Exploring the Evidence. It highlights the lack of evaluation evidence on the effectiveness of substance misuse treatment interventions for young people.
For more information or examples of evaluation research undertaken by Perpetuity please contact us by email on prci@perpetuitygroup.com or by telephone on 0116 222 5555. Alternatively please visit our website. |

Improve your supply chain security
Perpetuity consultants can help you secure the supply chain and generate business opportunities at the same time. Our accredited 28001 lead auditors have the specialist expertise to help you achieve ISO 28001 accreditation.
ISO 28001 is the first quality management system for the supply chain. Achieving this standard can then act as a good stepping stone to achieving C-TPAT accreditation, or Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status as it is known in Europe.

 Security Operational Plan
Perpetuity is currently developing a Security Operational Plan for a major broadcasting company. In order to create an effective plan, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of an organisation's security operational requirements. Frequently, there is no synergy between system functionality and security procedures and this can have catastrophic consequences.
The first step in the process will be to carry out a Risk Assessment.
For more information about our consultancy services please visit our website www.perpetuityconsultancy.com or contact us on 0116 222 5555 or consultancy@perpetuitygroup.com
Perpetuity also offer training in risk assessments, security surveys and creating policies, plans and procedures. |
