What this is

Executive Protection, in plain terms.

The job is to let somebody keep working. An executive with a punishing schedule cannot have every movement turned into an operation, and a public figure who wanted to look guarded would have hired a different kind of company. Good protection is mostly invisible and mostly happens before anybody arrives anywhere.

Every movement between secure locations is planned: the route, the arrival point, who is expected, where the vehicle waits, what happens if the front entrance is not usable. The threat is rarely dramatic. It is a persistent individual, a crowd at the wrong door, media, or an itinerary that leaked.

The work

What actually gets done.

  • Advance work on venues, routes, arrival and departure points.
  • Threat and risk assessment specific to the principal and the trip.
  • Close protection by licensed personal protection officers.
  • Secure transport and route planning between locations.
  • Management of media, crowds and persistent individuals.
  • Residence and event security where the engagement includes it.

Personal Protection

The plan is the product.

Routes, arrival points, vantage, and what happens if the front entrance is not usable. The visible part of protection is the last and smallest piece of it.

What you get

At the end of it.

  • A written protection plan before anybody is deployed.
  • Licensed officers, credentials available on request.
  • Discreet coverage that does not change how the principal is perceived.
  • A post-engagement report where anything occurred.

When people call

The three situations we hear most.

A public appearance is scheduled

A known time and place is the situation that needs advance work most.

There has been a specific threat

A threat assessment comes before a detail, and sometimes replaces it.

A principal is traveling into Texas

Local knowledge of the venue, the route and the city is most of the value.

Questions

About this service.

Are your protection officers licensed?

Yes. Personal protection work in Texas is a licensed activity and our officers hold the required credentials. We will provide them.

Will they be armed?

That depends on the assessment and on the venue, and it is decided in the plan rather than on the day. Many engagements are unarmed by design.

Can this be arranged at short notice?

Often, and short notice reduces the advance work that makes protection effective. Call as early as you can and we will tell you honestly what is achievable.

Is the first conversation really free?

Yes, and it is confidential. You describe the situation, we tell you whether an investigation is likely to help, roughly what it would involve and what it would cost. There is no charge for that call and no obligation at the end of it.
