PSA and Security Systems News announce Bill Bozeman and Integrator of the Year Awards

WESTMINSTER, Colo. and YARMOUTH, Maine—PSA and Security Systems News are excited to announce the jointly created new Integrator of the Year and Bill Bozeman Awards, which aspire to identify the leading system integrators within security, from smaller, local integrators all the way up to the big nationals. Winners will be awarded at PSA TEC 2022 and featured within the pages of SSN. 

Broken down by size, there will be a winner in each category – small (up to $5 million), medium ($6 million-$25 million and large (over $25 million) integration companies – as well as an overall winner, which will be honored with the Bill Bozeman Award.

“Naming the awards after Bill Bozeman was a natural choice,” said SSN Editor Paul Ragusa. “In addition to giving more than 40 years to the industry with his security systems integration business, Bill led PSA as CEO for more than 20 years, helping the global consortium to grow and succeed, while also moving the industry forward through his leadership and dedication. Not to mention he has been a friend and mentor to me and countless others within the security industry.”

Bozeman has won many prestigious industry awards including the Paul Marcus Award, the George Lippert memorial award recognizing outstanding contributions to the Security Industry Association (SIA), and, most recently, the inaugural Security Legend Award from Security Systems News in 2020.

“It has been very exciting to work with Security Systems News to develop awards to honor systems integrators in our industry,” said Candice Aragon, vice president of marketing and events at PSA. “These awards will take a different approach and look at an organization holistically. While financial metrics are extremely important, I’m thrilled we will also be including thought leadership, employee experience and giving back. We have some top-notch integrators in this industry, and I look forward to honoring them.”

Winners will be honored at PSA TEC in 2022 and featured in the pages of SSN. General criteria for the award includes:

  • Financial Success – Revenue growth year over year
  • Impact on/Involvement in the industry
  • Commitment to community
  • Commitment to diversity and inclusion
  • Employee satisfaction

“At PSA we have the privilege of working with the best integrators in the business,” said PSA CEO Matt Barnette. “I’m continuously impressed with the quality of our members’ and owners’ organizations. These awards will honor the exact type of integrator we have now and hope to continue to attract at PSA; I look forward to celebrate our inaugural class of winners at PSA TEC 2022.”

SSN Publisher Sarah Flanagan added, “Security Systems News is so pleased to announce with PSA the brand-new Integrator of the Year Awards and the prestigious Bill Bozeman award. We’re thrilled with the opportunity to partner with PSA and appreciate being included in this exciting process.”
