This report supplies information on the competitors typologies of the Active Security Systems and Building Automation Italian market: types of operators, by segment, by nationality or ownership structure, ranking of companies in terms of turnover, net income, competitive positions, breakdown by business segment, regional breakdown, are studied in depth in this report.
Scope
This report will cover active security systems and building automation systems, including: electronic components such as control panels, sensors and accessories for anti-intrusion devices, access control systems and video surveillance equipment, as well as electronic and electrical components used to regulate, monitor and activate building automation systems made by specialised producers, plus integrated single- and multi-function systems made by system integration companies, plant engineers and other specialised operators.
• Product technology: The security systems business area is composed of a vast array of equipment, instruments and devices used to measure, monitor and signal changes in the surroundings, as well as electronic devices that can manage these processes, system communications and a series of services.
The building automation business area is composed of systems that integrate, within a single physical and functional structure, various security systems and monitoring systems for a building’s electronic and mechanical units (such as heat and cooling units, lighting systems, sound systems and lifts). Automation systems are made up of numerous components, most notably central controllers, switches and controllers that regulate the various individual systems (e.g. heating and cooling units and lighting systems), valves, sensors and activators; all are effectively connected and integrated through a computer equipped with special software, enabling users to supervise the systems.
• Function: In the security systems area, the technology and equipment is used to safeguard people and/or goods (whether movable, immovable or informational) from dangerous situations like an intrusion, theft, armed robbery, looting, fire, flooding and the diffusion of noxious gases. As such, there are two distinct broad functions: security (protecting people, places and things from third-party damage) and safety (ensuring that the internal surroundings are safe for people). Building automation systems, used most frequently in non-residential buildings like hospitals, hotels, offices and airports, provide integrated and intelligent control over a set of plants and technical systems in a building, connecting them together through a local access network (LAN). The main goals of a building automation system is to manage and contain a building’s energy consumption, so as to ensure maximum comfort for the people inside, and to be able to monitor all of its electrical/electronic systems from one location.
• Client categories: Producers of active security system components market to wholesalers of electrical and electronic goods, to electrical system installers, to system integrators and to plant engineers and technicians. Producers and suppliers of full systems almost always sell their products directly to end customers, mainly homeowners, commercial and industrial building owners, service sector companies and government bodies that manage public buildings. Producers of building automation components sell to wholesalers of electrical, electronic and plumbing materials, to producers of industrial plants and heating and cooling units, as well as to plant engineers, electricians and plumbers. Producers and suppliers of complete building automation systems generally market directly to end clients, most notably owners/managers of large commercial buildings and hospitals.
Segments
The sector is comprised of two main business areas:
• security systems, which can be broken down into the following segments:
– components
– systems
• building automation, which is in turn composed of four main segments based on the specific product function:
– access control devices;
– components for anti-intrusion systems;
– components for fire prevention systems;
– video cameras and other equipment for video surveillance (CCTV).
The following products are not covered in the present report:
• electronic systems applied for injury prevention, pollution control, workplace sanitation, civil protection, natural disaster prevention, as well as cafeteria management systems and data protection systems;
• monitoring and automation systems for strictly industrial use, as well as building automation as applied domestically (i.e. domotics).
Methodology
Databank’s methodology for Competitors reports begins with a careful screening to identify the main organisations that are representative of a given sector. Several one-to-one interviews are then conducted with the selected organisations. Questionnaires are sent to all the leading companies on an annual basis. The information collected is then verified by an expert in the particular sector using a system of counterchecks to guarantee that the information is entirely reliable and consistent. The process is then completed using Cerved Group’s proprietary information about Italian enterprises. All Competitors reports also include details concerning the strategies and performances of the leading companies in each sector.
