Fast Guard Service Debuts National Security Risk Assessment Program

The initiative offers qualified organizations a preliminary Security Risk Snapshot, with more comprehensive on-site evaluations—typically valued at $1,500—available at preferred rates. In instances where clients sign a subsequent service agreement, Fast Guard may credit the assessment fee toward the contract. The process covers a broad spectrum of potential hazards, including visitor management, parking lot security, surveillance gaps, and emergency response readiness.

"Our goal is not to automatically recommend more guards," said Roderick C. Payne Jr., president and founder of Fast Guard Service. "We want to understand each client's property, operations, people and actual exposure so we can recommend the most appropriate and cost-effective security solution." The resulting reports provide decision-makers with prioritized findings and phased improvement plans to help justify security expenditures.

Available to sectors ranging from healthcare and education to construction and retail, the assessments are intended to address risks such as workplace violence, unauthorized access, and theft. Interested organizations can initiate the process through the company's website or by calling (844) 254-8273. Founded in 2013, the firm provides services including armed and unarmed officers, mobile patrols, and executive protection across the United States.
