Services · Workplace security audit
An on-site assessment of access points, perimeters, surveillance, procedures and manpower, with a written report that tells you what to fix before anyone is deployed.
01Overview
Understand the site before you staff it.
Every SMSA security engagement begins with a workplace physical security audit. Experienced security staff walk the premises, review how people, vehicles and material move through it, and look at the surveillance, equipment and manpower already in place.
The result is a written report with practical recommendations and priorities. It sets the number of posts, the post orders, the equipment and any electronic security needed, so the deployment fits your risks and your budget.
The method draws on the Indian Air Force background of our founder, Air Commodore S. Mohindra (Retd), who served 35 years and commanded three units in Delhi and Assam.
