Their deep expertise in critical life safety systems and technical authority further strengthens our offering and makes andwis the leading independent Fire and Security provider in the UK.”

Steve Thomas, CEO of Senseco Systems said:

“Since starting with just a handful of people in 2009, Senseco Systems has grown into a team of more than 350 across eight fire and security service lines, operating from seven locations across the UK. It has been an incredible journey built by talented, loyal people who share a commitment to service delivery, technical competence, and supporting one another.

“Joining the andwis Group is an exciting and natural next step. The geographical fit is excellent, but more importantly, the cultural alignment and shared belief in empowering entrepreneurial businesses and great people make this next step truly special.

“Together with our new partners in andwis Fire & Security, we are bringing together some of the UK’s leading life-safety brands, creating an unmatched technical capability, experience, and nationwide coverage.

The future for our people, and our partners, and the Senseco brand is very bright as part of the andwis group.”

“I am truly excited to welcome the Senseco team into the andwis fire and security family. Both businesses share a common culture and values, which put our people, quality, and customers first.

“This addition complements our existing portfolio in many ways. It expands our footprint and density nationwide, increases our self-delivery capability across all fire & security technologies and opens new sales channels, creating the largest and highest accredited independent Fire & Security safety businesses in the UK. We give a warm welcome to the team, and we look forward to achieving great things together.”
