Government Facilities

Access Control Security works closely with government clients to create customized security programs that focus on diligent protection, contingency planning, and enhanced customer service.

Access Control Security has decades of contract security service experience with city, county, state and federal agencies. We provide armed and unarmed security officers as well as officers who meet various government standards and certification requirements.

We also serve many clients in the public service sector with similar risks and needs including energy and utility clients, business improvement districts, transportation and aviation providers, and healthcare institutions. For these clients and many others — tourist attractions, national retail chains, and more — our officers must interact extensively with the general public, balancing complex security protocols with positive public relations.

In addition to protecting property and assets, we focus on helping these clients identify and reduce threats, achieve reductions in overall security services expenditures, realize return on investment and relieve the burden of security management from division administrators. Our officers routinely act as customer service ambassadors for those government and public service entities that have close contact with the public.

A selective hiring process, rigorous background checks and comprehensive training programs assure that our security officers meet the highest standards of the industry. With a curriculum including customer service, public relations, emergency response, fire protection and life safety, command center operations, facility systems and a range of security disciplines, security officers are extensively trained to excel both as security professionals and as customer service specialists in high-threat and high-profile environments.

Following is a sampling of services provided for government clients and others with similar security profiles:

  • Facility access control and protection
  • Patrol services
  • Fire and life safety
  • Command center operations and specialized screening
  • Emergency response coordination and crisis management
  • Alarm and electronic security system monitoring
  • CPR/ First Aid/AED training
  • Parking garage security and parking enforcement
  • Advance life support ambulance service
  • Occupational medical support
  • Special event staffing
  • On-site incident commanders
  • Port security
  • Transit security
  • Consulting and investigations
  • Workplace violence prevention
  • Active shooter response training
  • Executive protection

Our licensing, certification, and clearance program is designed to meet the specific needs of each of our customers. At a minimum, we license and certify officers to the state licensing standards and regulatory requirements of each service location, and we have the ability to meet various government standards, including Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC), Department of Defense (DoD) clearance, and others

I have slow internet and/or frequent connection drops.
To fix this, just get a little closer. If the router is located in a different room, try going into the room where the router is located and see if that fixes the issue.
