Security Planning and Management

An important element of security must include documentation such as policies, procedures and operational data for the security officers. A security management plan must also be in place to support electronic security systems, manned guarding and all other security elements on the site.

Needs Analysis

The Needs Analysis program is designed to assist the client company that has been in operation for a number of years. They may have some or all of the security elements of manned guarding, electronic security, procedures, etc. Now the equipment is aging and there may have been incidents that point to the need to upgrade systems. A TRA may have also been performed, and it has identified the problems associated with the aged equipment. The client must now quantify what they need and how best to integrate this new equipment into the current plan. We therefore perform a Needs Analysis that examines the state of current systems and their "salvage ability". We then examine new technology and see what systems best fit the environment of the client site. The deliverables include a report that details what systems are required and how they should be introduced into the environment. A design document section will address how the technology should be deployed.

System Specifications

Once the system elements are determined, we can write the performance specifications for the equipment that is required on the site. These specifications are then used to produce an engineering package and materials for tender of bid. Elements may include: CCTV, Card Access, Alarm Systems, Turnstiles, Barriers, Perimeter Detection, Guard Tour Systems, Intercoms, Monitoring Facilities, and all other security systems requirements.

Conceptual Design and Engineering Package

Production of actual engineering drawings of the system and placement of all elements commences so that the client gets a graphic representation of where the various electronic security systems are placed and how they will be monitored. These drawings will guide contractors through the integration process so that the client receives exactly what was specified.
