Security Provider Evaluation Checklist - Scaife Protection Services.pdf

This practical, fillable checklist provides a systematic framework for evaluating and comparing security service providers before making a commitment. The tool covers four essential verification areas: Company Verification (valid PPO license with tracking fields for number and expiration, business licenses, years in business, reference checking), Insurance & Coverage (general liability minimum $1M, workers' compensation, auto insurance for mobile patrols, current certificate verification), Guard Requirements (valid guard cards for all personnel, background check confirmation, training program verification, uniform and equipment provision), and Service & Support (24/7 supervision availability, emergency response procedures, reporting system review, communication protocol establishment). The checklist includes space for notes and observations, serving as a comprehensive decision-making tool that ensures all critical factors are considered when selecting security services.
