๐ A major new resource for the electronic security and life safety industry is here.
ESA has released its inaugural Industry Performance Index (IPI), the first report from the new ESA Industry Research Center. Developed in partnership with Beacon Economics, the IPI gives security integrators and dealers data-driven insight into industry performance, growth trends, workforce developments, wages, and the forces shaping the market.
The findings offer a clear look at the strength and resilience of the electronic security services industryโand provide businesses with valuable data to better understand where the industry has been, where it stands today, and where it may be headed.
And this is just the beginning. The ESA Industry Research Center will continue building on this foundation with research designed to help businesses make more informed decisions and plan for the future.
