The OSPAs are increasingly being seen as one of the most prestigious accolades one can achieve in security. They are designed to be both independent and inclusive, providing an opportunity for outstanding performers, whether buyers or suppliers, to be recognised and their success to be celebrated.

The criteria for these awards are based on extensive research on key factors that contribute to and characterise outstanding performance. 

The OSPAs are being set-up in collaboration with security associations and groups across many countries.
