With the pandemic and supply chain issues both mostly in the rear-view mirror, security dealers and integrators are returning to “normal” and focusing on more typical challenges such as the economy, increasing sales, competing effectively and generating more RMR.

The good news is COVID-19 seems to be in the rear-view mirror; but ahead all signs point to a recession. Security dealers and integrators are wary, but cautiously optimistic they can weather this downturn with the skills they have honed in recent years.

Everyone hoped things would be “back to normal” by now. While security companies in 2021 continued to feel the impacts of the coronavirus, the 2022 SDM Industry Forecast shows both slow but steady improvement and optimism.

To say 2020 was a bit of a roller coaster ride is perhaps an understatement. At this time last year, most security integrators anticipated a strong 2020, only to be thrown into turmoil late in the first quarter by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Security integrators expect their brilliant business performance of 2019 to continue into 2020, according to results of SDM’s Industry Forecast Study, a report published each year since 1982.
