What TACC and DHI are saying

Lee Odess, Founder of The Access Control Collective:

“Physical security is a global and value chain ecosystem, not a collection of disconnected products or roles. If we want the industry to move forward, we need more perspectives at the table and more honest conversations across disciplines both in person and digitally. Partnering with DHI helps make that happen.”

James Gammon, CEO of DHI:

“Our members bring deep, practical expertise that directly impacts safety and security in the built environment. This partnership gives them a place to engage, learn from adjacent disciplines, and contribute to broader industry conversations.”
