Preceptor Security Group: Offering Ground-Breaking Physical Security Worldwide

Marcus Stair, Principal
As companies look for every possible avenue to cut costs, corporate security teams have started dwindling in size, and fewer resources are available to business leaders to ensure a safe and secure working environment. In the face of extensive cost-cutting associated with security divisions of most organizations, it has become more critical than ever to ensure that nothing slips through the gaps while managing risks. Keen observation and comprehension of such changing trends in the security marketplace fueled the inception of Preceptor Security Group whose objective is to develop best-in-class physical security programs, systems, and integration solutions to meet different organizational requirements. “We have pioneered a lifecycle project management deployment model that ensures consistent physical security in compliance with corporate standards, as well as applicable industry and local regulations,” informs Marcus Stair, Principal of Preceptor Security Group.

The solution set developed by Preceptor Security Group facilitates business activities regularly taking place within the different rungs of an organization, including project management, document turnover, close-out scheduling, and trade interaction. This product portfolio has been augmented with replicable back-office systems built atop standard technologies that are regularly used in most organizations to enhance usability. Collectively, these solutions achieve a degree of consistency, economic feasibility, and safety, which are otherwise impossible to attain through human efforts alone. “Our offerings are intended to be disruptive in the marketplace and not destructive—we aim to put an end to the complacency that has set in with regard to security and awaken our clientele to possible dangers,” explains Stair. Striving toward this goal, Preceptor Security Group has developed processes specific to physical security that are implemented in other industries to introduce quality and control into the security space.

While Preceptor Security Group initially targeted traditional technology companies, industry veterans have been admiring of the firm’s simplistic, yet comprehensive approach to security and life cycle management.
The company effectively structures its holistic security solution set while carefully considering how it affects the client’s risk management techniques. Preceptor Security Group maintains a layer of control between the corporate sector of its clients and the field service resources to ensure that both federal laws and local regulations necessitate business processes, industry standards, and compliance requirements. At the same time, Preceptor Security Group oversees the documentation of the implementation processes in each field office in order to maintain a chain of custody and facilitate efficient communication between different offices. The versatility and cost-effectiveness of its holistic deployment model appeals to organizations that focus on dynamic risk management and cost recovery, ensuring that client organizations’ risks are mitigated at each location.

The unique nature of Preceptor Security Group’s solutions benefits most of its customers almost immediately. Among the company’s many success stories is that of a client with over a hundred offices worldwide. Preceptor Security Group implemented its lifecycle management program to drive corporate standards and security across multiple locations, whereby the physical security for each establishment was standardized and corporate documentation was completed. In addition, the accounting department of the client noticed a reduction in security spending by $100,000 within the first quarter of the implementation of the Preceptor Security Group’s solution. The security solution thus led to the creation of a work environment with increased visibility into business operations.

While Preceptor Security Group originally envisioned its solution to be available in the form of a plug-in for contractors and security integrators, the product gained popularity when offered to the end-user directly. With time, the company aims to tailor a portion of its products as a plug-in that security integrators can deploy in customer infrastructures, thus increasing the number of people benefiting from the lifecycle management program.
