iC2 CCTV & Security Specialists

What iC2 CCTV & Security Specialists does

iC2 CCTV & Security Specialists (UK) Ltd is a London-based commercial security systems integrator specialising in integrated surveillance, access control, intruder and fire alarm, ANPR, public address, and remote monitoring solutions for enterprise and institutional clients. Founded in 2001 (operating history documented from 2008) and headquartered in Greenwich, the company combines hardware from Avigilon (Motorola), MOBOTIX, Hikvision, FAAC, Secure Logiq, Grosvenor Technology, and TOA with third-party video analytics and ANPR software to deliver centralised, vendor-agnostic security stacks. Its product surface spans commercial CCTV installation (IP, HD, megapixel, PTZ, wireless, rapid deployment), integrated access control with biometric and ANPR-driven gating, body-worn cameras, vape detection, and 24/7 police-approved remote monitoring with verbal challenge via PA.

The revenue model is a mix of project-based installation work and recurring service/maintenance contracts: quote-based, custom-priced deployments backed by a one-year installation warranty, plus quarterly engineer maintenance visits, SLA-bound support, and ongoing remote monitoring subscriptions. Go-to-market is consultative enterprise field sales — free site surveys, security audits, and bespoke system design — targeting local authorities, NHS trusts, educational institutions, luxury hospitality and heritage venues, retail chains, food manufacturers, social housing providers, and high net worth individuals, all served through direct sales and inside sales via the UK only. Headcount sits in the 11–50 band; revenue and ownership are not publicly disclosed.

Operational differentiators centre on a deep UK accreditation stack (NSI Gold, ISO 9001, Cyber Essentials, CHAS, Constructionline, SSAIB, BS7858 vetting, NHS London supplier status) and a blue-chip reference list including Chelsea FC, Manchester Arndale, De Beers, Hamleys, Silverstone, Alton Towers, The Shard, Warwick Castle, English National Opera (8K Coliseum deployment), and multiple NHS trusts. The integration model — all systems unified under a single control platform with recurring maintenance — combined with multi-body compliance creates moderate enterprise-procurement switching costs and functions as the principal competitive moat.
