Keep Up With Your System’s Maintenance This New Year

The new year is an exciting time, and a great opportunity to put a list of things that should be accomplished for the rest of the year. This year, Esscoe wants to stress the importance of maintaining your system’s quality by regularly servicing it.

The Benefits
Preventative or routine maintenance is frequently neglected in the security industry post-project delivery or during the design phase, yet it is crucial for ensuring the functionality and usability of the delivered security system throughout the site’s lifespan. This also helps maintain the longevity of security systems.

Important Considerations
Ensuring maintenance efficacy is crucial; staying current with software upgrades guarantees compatibility with newer systems, while neglecting updates may pose challenges for sites using older software.

Planning is Key
Creating a good preventative maintenance plan (PMP) requires several key elements to ensure the plan meets the organization’s needs and that it can be defended in annual budget processes.

How Has Maintenance Evolved?

• Nearly all systems within the electronic security world are software-based.
• Upgrades focused only on new features from suppliers are outdated.
• Cybersecurity is a constant concern in today’s tech world, with frequent discovery and patching of software vulnerabilities.
• Updates also provide further stability as bugs are identified and fixed.
