The Security Landscape in Fort Smith
In Fort Smith, most of our work centres on municipal and community facilities, schools and campuses, remote sites and work camps and tourism and recreation. Arenas, libraries, town offices and community centres host residents every day and need event coverage and after hours checks.
Schools and campuses need building checks after hours, event coverage and approachable officers during the day. Remote projects and work camps need controlled access, camp security and protection of fuel and equipment far from local services. Clients choose the mix they need, from a single overnight patrol route to full time guards, and every shift is supervised and reported through our 24/7 control center.
