Effective March 1, 2018, the Bosch Security Systems division will be known as Bosch Building Technologies. “We want the scope of our portfolio to be reflected better in our name as well,†says Gert van Iperen, president of the Bosch Security Systems division.
The division comprises two organisationally discrete units, the global product business and the regional system integration services business, which operates in eight countries.
In these eight countries, the system integration unit provides integrated solutions for commercial buildings. Depending on the region, the portfolio includes building security, energy services, and building automation. For customers, this means planning, installation, and operation of these solutions, as well as additional services, from a single source.
The product business – to be known in the future as Bosch Security and Safety Systems – will continue to operate as a global supplier of video, intrusion, fire-alarm, and voice-alarm systems, as well as of access control systems and management software, all under the Bosch brand.
In its product business, Bosch Security Systems will merge its video systems, intrusion detection, as well as its access control and management software business units to form a single business unit, known as Security.
