Security Reviews/Audits

The recommendations outlined in our reports will lower the security risk factor of facilities/campus’, and enhance the sense of wellbeing for all legitimate users. Importantly, it will contribute to legal defence should litigation occur in relation to violence. A Security Review Report will provide:

  • workable, credible and cost effective solutions
  • an Action List with recommendations that are prioritised into areas of criticality and urgency, thereby, offering Management a tool to plan, prioritise and budget
  • support to operators, with ongoing accreditation and certification requirements

Development of Security Policies and Procedures

We provide valuable assistance with the development of Security Policies and Procedures for Health, Aged Care and School operators.

Security System Design

We have the expertise to provide ‘performance based’ security design specifications that meet the specific needs of a facility, with the capacity of expansion. A security system design specification will be integrated to ensure door alarms, closed circuit television (CCTV), staff emergency/duress, ‘wanderer protection’ and intruder detection are part of the one system.

Architectural (Security) Design

We provide valuable expertise to architects who are at the design stage of new developments in ‘designing out’ many inherent security related problems. Our objective is to use the built and natural environment in a holistic and cohesive way to reduce opportunities for crime.
