Another exciting feature, although not the SAFETY Act’s intended purpose, is the significant marketing edge and higher demand that SAFETY Act approval creates for entities who provide products and services to others.

• The detailed SAFETY Act review and qualification process tells others that the approved anti-terrorism goods or services successfully passed the DHS’ stringent scrutiny and demonstrated the proven efficacy required.
• The real marketing advantage of SAFETY Act however is somewhat hidden. It stems from the SAFETY Act’s Final Rule or Regulation. This regulation states that SAFETY Act automatically grants complete immunity to your vendors, distributers, customers or users if a designated product, technology, software, facility, procedure or service fails to prevent or mitigate a terrorist attack.
• Your competitors, absent their own SAFETY Act approval, cannot possibly provide their customers with this level of immunity or buy enough terrorism insurance to compensate others for losses arising from a serious terrorism or e-terrorism event.
• In today’s geo-political environment, demonstrating that the SAFETY Act affords customers total immunity from potentially catastrophic terrorism related liability is overwhelmingly compelling. Customer consideration of this “no-cost” immunity protection will likely outweigh many other issues and considerations aside from the day-to-day operational safety, efficiency and reliability.
• If your SAFETY Act protected products or services represent or address a significant portion of your customer's, subcontractor's or supplier's liability exposure, it is very possible they can save money on their insurance by selecting your product or service over one that does not afford them such protection.

More and more procurements, in both the private and governmental sectors, require SAFETY Act consideration, designation or eligibility. This trend is expected to increase and is actually addressed in a recent change to the Federal Acquisition Regulations or "FAR".
