When this service becomes urgent
912 delivers physical security as an accountable infrastructure engagement: CCTV, access control, electric fence, cabling, maintenance, and documentation under one contract. The work starts with site risk, blind spots, credentials, and handover evidence, then moves into installation and SLA-backed support.
Discovery call agenda
Site survey, risk-rated design, bill of materials, installation, commissioning, credential handover, and scheduled maintenance.
- 1Map the site and systems in scope.
- 2Identify incident, compliance, and maintenance risks.
- 3Agree whether this is project-only or AMC-backed.
What the numbers say about leaving this alone
Physical security is bought once and then left to age. The spend is already in your accounts — the open question is whether it is buying protection or just presence.
A World Bank survey of 713 Kenyan establishments found that security spending rose from 2.1% of annual sales in 2007 to 3.6% in 2013.

Executive Intelligence
Why should an enterprise choose integrated security over standalone CCTV?
Standalone CCTV systems only record events, whereas integrated physical security links video surveillance with biometric access control, fire alarms, and HR systems. This enables automated alerting, prevents unauthorized remote access, and eliminates ghost worker payroll fraud—creating a proactive defense rather than reactive recording.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about Physical Security.
What is a CCTV system and how does it work?
CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) systems record and transmit video footage to a specific, limited set of monitors. Modern IP-based CCTV allows for AI-powered analytics, remote viewing, and cloud storage.
How much does biometric access control cost?
Costs vary depending on the number of doors and users. Our access control solutions are scalable—starting from a single office door to multi-site campus security systems, all managed from one platform.
Do you offer remote monitoring?
Yes, our surveillance architectures enable secure remote monitoring. Your security team can view live footage and receive instant alerts on mobile devices or centralized control rooms.
Are your systems ODPC-compliant?
912 can design surveillance and access-control storage, access, retention, security, and evidence workflows around the organisation’s data flows and Kenya Data Protection Act responsibilities. The client still owns its lawful basis, notices, governance, legal assessment, and other obligations; no camera or access-control deployment guarantees compliance by itself.
