Thirty are SIA-licensed and taking bookings, and fifteen own a car, which lets one patrol cover several business centres such as Grange, Tuddenham and Futura Park. Every one is vetted to BS 7858 and paid on PAYE, and their check-ins are captured by GPS and turned into a written log for you. Logistics operators generally want a staffed gatehouse and yard guarding. Farms prefer roving rural patrols and solar CCTV towers that need no power supply. The ten mapped construction sites suit CCTV towers monitored through an NSI Gold accredited centre, while consultancies and offices typically need key holding, alarm response and a POD intruder alarm rather than a full-time guard. 30 SIA-licensed officers within 10 miles 9,415 Registered businesses in East Suffolk 34 Warehouse buildings mapped within 5 km 10 Active construction sites mapped within 5 km ### Commercial sites around Kesgrave - **Industrial & business parks:** Grange Business Centre, Futura Park, Tuddenham Business Centre, Ransomes Industrial Estate, Custody Vehicle Docking Area and Openreach Four Acre Site - **Retail parks & shopping centres:** Martlesham Retail Park, Spenhill Retail Park, Euro Retail Park, Futura Park and Rosehill Centre - **Hospitals:** Nuffield Hospital Ipswich, Ipswich Hospital and Bluebird Lodge - **Rail stations:** Derby Road ### Venues & Martyn's Law Foxhall Stadium, Venue 16 and Venue 77 are within 5km.
