Why Security Consulting?

 If you are looking to engage security services or hire your own security personnel it may be the smartest decision to make for your business to use a security consultant. If the expertise you need is not available within your own organization we can provide this service.

 A security consultant will be your organizations personal security expert; someone you can confidentially discuss your business operations and security requirements and concerns with at a high level.

 You know your business better than anyone. A security consultant will take the time to understand your business AND any risk to your people and property. They will identify and qualify your risk and the best ways to mitigate it.

 A security consultant will evaluate all your existing operating systems and business processes to see if what you have in place is suitable for your current business environment. A review should evaluate building access, mail and communications, emergency management, access control and alarm systems, CCTV and building management systems, as well as any other case specific variables.

 Once business risk has been identified it needs to be qualified from a financial perspective; this is what your consultant will do for you. Once this has been completed, it is possible to make qualified decisions about risk mitigation strategies. This is where a security consultant’s experience comes into play; they know the repercussions of ill-informed risk strategies and the result of having none at all.

 Good security comes from a combination of systems and processes working in harmony. A truly independent consultant will not recommend a product or service where they receive kickbacks or commissions on their purchase, they will recommend the products and services that will give the best outcome for their client.

 With knowledge of your business and your potential business risk, a security consultant will protect your bottom line. Expenditure on security is rarely thought of as an investment that will show returns to your company, however through technological efficiencies, not only will you enjoy improvements in security, you can also see your security upgrades pay for themselves over time, giving you piece of mind knowing your business and employees are safe

 If you are spending money on new security technologies, a security consultant will ensure that you get what you paid for. Your security consultant will take ownership for signing off on any capital purchases so you can enjoy peace of mind that you’re not being sold inferior, faulty or inappropriate products. This protects your investment and ensures a level of accountability to those charged with undertaking works for you.

  Your best interests are the only ones of concern to a security consultant. Do yourself a favor by having someone else – an expert – do the thinking about your business’ security.
