Consolidating business under one service provider can drastically improve the value of any operation. The single point of contact, streamlined and consistent procedures, cost savings and best practices are among the benefits.
But what happens when a business portfolio varies? With security, this is often seen as a challenge especially when there are different needs for different types of facilities.
The solution is simple - identify a provider with the right experience for every need. Different facilities require different expertise, especially in the government sector, where a city, county or state entity can include courthouses, public transit authorities, airports, seaports and other agencies. These operations face a variety of needs and requirements.
The same challenge can exist in the higher education environment, for example, where security officers are assigned to varying facilities such as residential housing, athletic venues and academic buildings. The overall security mission may be the same across multiple venues but the approach and procedures differ.
These operationally diverse environments require distinct services supported by a cohesive commitment to safety and security across the entire organization or governmental agency.
It all comes down to experience and quality when accounting for all your needs. Aligning with a security provider who has experience satisfying a range of responsibilities is crucial. A high quality and professional security provider–whose experience matches your entire portfolio of needs–can successfully consolidate all locations into one contract.
No matter what requirements a security contract has, an understanding of needs, industry and facilities is paramount to the overall mission. A security team that is committed to quality and excellence in their profession will identify the solutions needed to succeed.
