The primary advantage of using off-duty police is their legal authority to enforce state and local laws, detain suspects, and make arrests. This enables an immediate and decisive response to criminal activity, bypassing the potential delays of a 911 call and providing a direct link to local law enforcement agencies.
Modern industrial security camera systems provide constant operational oversight. FRPS offers both mobile and fixed surveillance solutions to extend visibility across your entire property. Solar-powered mobile camera trailers are rapidly deployed to monitor large, open areas such as equipment yards, remote lots, or construction zones. These units act as a strong visual deterrent and provide wide-angle coverage without the need for permanent infrastructure.
For critical chokepoints, we install fixed cameras at loading docks, entry gates, and building perimeters. All camera feeds are accessible to authorized managers through a secure, cloud-based Video Management System (VMS). This technology allows you to view live and recorded footage from any internet-connected device, providing real-time situational awareness and capturing clear video evidence to support incident investigations.
Operational continuity requires strict adherence to fire safety codes. When fire alarm or sprinkler systems are impaired for maintenance, or when hot work such as welding or cutting is being performed, a professional fire watch is often required by local ordinances and insurance policies. FRPS provides trained fire watch personnel to maintain safety and compliance.
Our fire watch teams include active firefighters who understand local codes, NFPA standards, and OSHA regulations. They conduct continuous patrols of the designated areas, maintain detailed logs for regulatory authorities, and are prepared to notify the fire department and building occupants at the first sign of a hazard. This specialized service keeps your facility compliant and operational during periods of increased fire risk.
Our security strategies are developed and overseen by a leadership team with distinguished careers in law enforcement, bringing more than 100 years of combined experience. This background shapes our entire operational methodology. Risk assessments are conducted with an investigator's perspective, identifying vulnerabilities that others might overlook. Site-specific post orders are written with the clarity and precision of official protocols, ensuring duties are executed consistently. Our personnel receive training that exceeds baseline state mandates, preparing them to respond effectively to real-world incidents. This strategic approach moves beyond simply placing a guard at a post; it involves creating a comprehensive security posture designed to proactively mitigate threats.
Trust in a security service requires transparency. The DutyQ™ technology platform provides verifiable proof of service and real-time operational oversight. This system uses geofencing to confirm that officers are at their assigned posts and RFID checkpoints to create a digital record of completed patrol routes. Officers receive updated post orders directly on their mobile devices, ensuring they always have the most current instructions. For clients, DutyQ™ offers a secure portal to view schedules, access invoices, and communicate with the support team. This technology provides you with certainty that security protocols are being followed consistently across all shifts. It transforms security from an unverifiable expense into a transparent, data-backed operation.
Partnering with a security provider is also a risk management decision. FRPS maintains comprehensive insurance coverage, including $8 million in general liability and $1 million in workers' compensation. This coverage significantly exceeds state-mandated minimums, demonstrating financial stability and transferring a substantial portion of liability risk from your organization to ours. This level of financial assurance protects your business in the event of a serious incident. Our commitment to safety is further validated by our receipt of the Texas Mutual Award of Safety Excellence, an honor given to a small percentage of policyholders for exceptional safety practices.

Security for manufacturing plants involves protecting more than just physical assets. It extends to safeguarding proprietary processes, intellectual property, and sensitive production lines from disruption or tampering. Our manufacturing security systems are designed to manage the controlled flow of raw materials into the facility and finished goods out, preventing loss at every stage. We implement access control procedures for employees and vendors to protect restricted areas. The integration of on-site officers with surveillance technology ensures employee safety around heavy machinery and helps enforce site-specific safety protocols. Our production security services focus on maintaining the integrity and continuity of your manufacturing operations.

The primary objective of distribution center security is the prevention of cargo theft and inventory shrinkage. These logistics hubs face unique challenges, including vast perimeters, high-volume vehicle traffic, and the constant movement of goods. Our security plans for warehouses focus on securing the entire supply chain. This starts with stringent access control at gates and extends to monitoring loading docks and bay doors where inventory is most vulnerable. On-site officers and mobile patrols secure large trailer yards and parking areas, deterring both internal and external theft. By combining a visible security presence with electronic surveillance and meticulous record-keeping, we help protect your inventory from receipt to final shipment.

Implementing a professional security program is a structured process designed to be seamless and effective. We follow a clear, four-step methodology to ensure your security plan is built on a thorough understanding of your needs and is executed with precision from day one.
The process begins with a comprehensive consultation. Our team, led by professionals with law-enforcement backgrounds, conducts a detailed walkthrough of your facility. We identify physical and procedural vulnerabilities related to your site's layout, operational flow, and specific risk profile.
The findings from the assessment are translated into a customized security plan with detailed post orders. These instructions outline the specific duties, patrol routes, and emergency protocols for your site. Post orders are digitized and managed within the DutyQ™ platform, ensuring every officer on every shift has instant access to the correct procedures.
We select personnel whose training and disposition are the right fit for your environment, whether that requires armed or unarmed officers. We then deploy any necessary technology, such as mobile camera trailers or RFID checkpoints for the DutyQ™ system. Throughout this process, you will have a dedicated account manager and access to our 24/7 client support team to ensure clear and constant communication.
Our partnership includes a commitment to continuous improvement. We regularly review incident data and DutyQ™ performance reports with your team. This allows us to refine strategies, adjust patrol coverage as your needs change, and ensure your security program remains effective and aligned with your business objectives.
An armed security offfficers is a private security professional licensed to carry a firearm, with training that often comes from a military or law enforcement background. Their authority is that of a private citizen, focused on protecting the client’s site and enforcing post orders. An off-duty police officer is an active, commissioned peace officer with full arrest powers and the authority to enforce state and local laws. They provide a higher level of deterrence and can respond to criminal acts with official law enforcement authority.
FRPS provides nationwide coverage and uses a centralized management system to ensure consistency across a client’s entire portfolio. A dedicated account manager serves as the single point of contact for all locations. The DutyQ™ platform is used to standardize post orders, reporting, and communication, ensuring that every branch adheres to the same high security standards while allowing for adjustments based on local risk factors.
Clients can monitor all security activity through the secure client portal provided by the DutyQ™ platform. This portal gives you access to real-time data, including geofenced check-ins and time-stamped RFID checkpoint scans that verify patrols. You can also view daily activity logs, incident reports, schedules, and invoices, providing complete transparency and oversight.
Post orders are developed collaboratively during the initial risk assessment phase. The FRPS team works with your stakeholders to document all specific security tasks, emergency procedures, and operational protocols. These orders are then digitized and managed within the DutyQ™ platform, where they can be updated in real time to reflect any changes in your operational needs or security posture.
In the event of an impairment to your fire protection systems, FRPS can deploy specialized Fire Watch personnel 24/7. These individuals are trained to understand local fire codes and NFPA best practices. They conduct continuous patrols, maintain detailed logs, and are prepared to notify the fire department and building occupants immediately, ensuring your institution remains compliant and can continue to operate safely.
