SERVICES

Three ways to engage.

Every engagement is scoped around one question: what decision do you need to make, and what do you need to know to make it well? The work is delivered personally — assessment, planning and advice from one senior advisor, not a rotating team.

PILLAR I · ASSESS

Know before you go.

Independent assessments that give you the real picture — on paper before you commit, on the ground when it matters.

Security Risk Assessment

A structured assessment of the threats to your people, assets and operations in a specific environment — political, criminal, terrorist and operational. Built from field experience in the environments where these risks are real, not theoretical. You receive findings you can act on, ranked by likelihood and impact.

DELIVERABLE: WRITTEN ASSESSMENT WITH PRIORITISED MITIGATIONS.

Country & Market-Entry Assessment

Considering operations, investment or a first project in a difficult market? This assessment covers the security environment, operating constraints, local dynamics and the practical realities of moving people and assets. It answers the question boards actually ask: can we operate there, and what will it take?

DELIVERABLE: MARKET-ENTRY SECURITY BRIEF FOR DECISION-MAKERS.

Site & Facility Security Survey

An on-site review of offices, residences, accommodation, project sites or facilities — access, perimeter, procedures, guard force and emergency readiness. Conducted the way hostile-environment sites are actually probed, with recommendations proportionate to your risk and budget.

DELIVERABLE: SURVEY REPORT WITH PRIORITISED UPGRADES.

Travel Risk Review

A practical review of planned travel to elevated-risk destinations — routes, accommodation, movement, contingencies and medical options — aligned with recognised travel risk management practice. For a single executive trip or a standing travel programme.

DELIVERABLE: TRAVEL RISK BRIEF AND MOVEMENT PLAN.

PILLAR II · PREPARE

The plan exists before it is needed.

Plans, procedures and training that hold up under pressure — written by someone who has executed them, not only drafted them.

Security Plans & Procedures

Mission and project security plans, standard operating procedures and security management frameworks — tailored to your operation and the standards your stakeholders expect. Documents your team will actually use, in plain language.

DELIVERABLE: SECURITY PLAN AND SOP SET.

Crisis & Evacuation Planning

Contingency plans for the events you hope never happen — incident response, evacuation, relocation and communications. Built and rehearsed the way missions in Tripoli, Mogadishu and Kabul build them.

DELIVERABLE: CRISIS MANAGEMENT AND EVACUATION PLAN.

Medical Contingency (MEDEVAC) Arrangements

Field-medicine-informed planning for medical emergencies in places where the ambulance is not coming — casualty response, stabilisation options, evacuation routes and provider coordination.

DELIVERABLE: MEDEVAC PLAN INTEGRATED WITH YOUR OPERATIONS.

Security Training & Exercises

Practical preparation for staff deploying to or operating in difficult environments — threat awareness, movement discipline, incident response and crisis decision-making, from briefings to full exercises. Firearms and range instruction delivered where lawful, through licensed facilities.

DELIVERABLE: TRAINING PROGRAMME AND EXERCISE REPORT.

PILLAR III · ADVISE

A senior advisor beside your decision-makers.

Ongoing judgement, on call — for missions, projects and executives that need answers, not another report.

Retained Security Advisory

A standing advisory arrangement: your security counsel for planning, incidents and the questions in between. The continuity of an in-house security manager, without the headcount.

DELIVERABLE: RETAINED ADVISORY, SCOPED TO YOUR OPERATION.

Project & Mission Security Oversight

Senior oversight of security across a project or mission lifecycle — from mobilisation to close-out — ensuring plans are implemented, providers perform and leadership stays informed.

DELIVERABLE: OVERSIGHT CADENCE AND REPORTING TO LEADERSHIP.

Provider Vetting & Selection

Choosing a local guard force, PSD team or security company in an unfamiliar market is itself a risk decision. I specify the requirement, vet the candidates and negotiate the arrangement — on your side of the table, reselling nothing.

DELIVERABLE: REQUIREMENT SPEC, VETTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION.

Executive & Delegation Travel Advisory

Advance planning and on-the-ground coordination for leadership visits to elevated-risk locations — the same discipline applied to diplomats and executives in Tripoli, Mogadishu and Basra.

DELIVERABLE: VISIT SECURITY PLAN AND COORDINATION.
