provider or vendor that may provide physical security hardware or

Retail
security assessments can cover a lot of ground
depending on the size and complexity of the company.
We are sensitive to the customer's shopping experience
and store operations when reviewing or designing
physical security for retailers.
Whether it is
the corner drug store or a major chain with thousands of
stores, our analysis will provide vital insight into the
strengths and weaknesses of the physical aspects of your
loss prevention efforts. We will assist in the
development of current and future planning in areas such
as:
-
Burglar/Fire/Robbery Alarms
- Electronic Article
Surveillance
- Safes
- Door hardware and
key systems.
- Panic Alarms
- Lighting
- CCTV
We ensure you have the "best for business" approach to satisfy your needs.
We will provide actionable, cost effective recommendations and can follow
the process through from the creation of an RFP to monitoring installation
of equipment. Click here to
understand the general make up of a security assessment.
Aspects of your security program that
should be regularly reviewed:
- How are you preventing or deterring
employee theft?
- Lighting: Do you have the
recommended lumens?
- Does your alarm have a cellular back
up?
- Do your employees know how to react
during a robbery?
- Perimeter physical security: What
considerations are there for fencing and outer doors/windows?
- Access control and policies: Who
manages your access control? How often is it reviewed for
accuracy?
- Employee Parking: How close do
they park to docks and dumpster?
- Review of security related equipment:
How old is that VCR (If it is a VCR it's time to go digital)? Planning on going digital?
- Review of periodic auditing efforts:
Do you have a self audit program?
- Review of physical layout of internal warehouse to
include distribution of CCTV, protection of sensitive cargo, and cross
docking methods: When was the last time the layout was reviewed to
ensure protection needs have not changed?
- Protection of cargo in transit:
Are you using RFID, GPS, special seals?
