Construction Site Security Services

Major long-term construction sites continue to be victimized by property crime. Tools and equipment are turning up missing. These sites are losing copper, electrical fixtures and hand tools. Heavy equipment and vehicles are stolen along with onsite gasoline. Some construction locations are being impacted by vandalism and gang activity. Finally, when criminals and trespassers are injured on these sites, they file lawsuits against the construction company.

Typically when construction sites experience these kinds of problems, the first impulse is to hire a guard service, an expense remedy. Hiring a guard service may or may not be an appropriate portion of the solution. SMSI Inc. will assess the threats and vulnerabilities unique to each construction project. We will quantify the local crime environment as well as the capabilities of local law enforcement services. SMSI will assess the needs and application of fencing, lighting, and CCTV as well as detection systems. If security devices and/or services are warranted, SMSI will help develop RFPs that ensure that our clients get a fair shake from security vendors and that only appropriate remedies are applied. SMSI can provide useful information in hardening any site against the threat of foreign or domestic terrorism. This expertise may be applied to both temporary and/or permanent sites. Finally, if needed SMSI will provide Security Management Support for the duration of the project.
