BCRC’s Second Year Evaluation Complete
“The creation of BCRC was a timely and much needed delivery vehicle for a cohesive approach to combat crime against SMEs.”
BCRC has been independently evaluated for the second year running by Dr Sue Mullins from Sheffield College. The evaluation highlights the positive impact that the BCRC has had in South Yorkshire, and reviews some of the successes that it has had in helping SME’s become more secure in increasingly uncertain times. One client commented:
“Security advice, and subsequent measures have been instrumental in gaining new business. Specific new contracts have been won on the basis of a secure facility. In addition the business has invested in a new automated line to increase productivity and keep work from going to China. In addition, security was such an issue; the business may have relocated instead of investing in the area.”
“The teamwork of the BCRC unit generally and the advisors in particular have been a major factor in the success of BCRC’s work. The advisors have a mix of expertise seems to work particularly well as the team are able to share this and provide excellent support for each other.”
