Panasonic's Premier Integrator (PPI) scheme was created in 1996 to build loyalty between Panasonic and those Integrators willing to go that extra mile. Since then, as the scheme has evolved it has generated a benchmark standard for CCTV installers across the UK & Europe.

Becoming a PPI is itself a great achievement for any installer, however wishing to additionally recognise those individuals and organizations that have excelled throughout the year, Panasonic have decided to launch the first ever Premier Integrator Awards.

The awards ceremony is set to be held at Panasonic's dealer evening at IFSEC 2007 where five prestigious awards will be up for grabs including; Best PPi, Best Project, Best Marketing Initiative, Best Engineer and Best Sales Person.

In partnership with Panasonic System Solutions, the awards will be judged by editors from leading industry magazines including SMT, Security Installer and PSI. The PPI awards aim to provide not only significant recognition within the industry, but also further accreditation and coverage to promote the winning Integrators business.
