Security System Design Services

PBS&J, in addition to providing security consulting services, is experienced in providing professional security system design solutions. We take a balanced approach to protecting people, key assets, critical infrastructures, and the new and retrofit built environment, by seamlessly integrating cost-effective planning with technology-based solutions.

 

Working closely with our clients, the design and building community, PBS&J applies national standards, best practices, and proven security design methodologies to each assignment. In addition to these quality assurance benchmarks, we provide independent and objective evaluations of security products and systems—and our recommendations are performance based.

 

PBS&J’s security design team is made up of Certified Protection Professionals (CPPs), Physical Security Professionals (PSPs), registered professional engineers, and other technical staff with a broad range of security project management expertise. These professionals serve on a variety of technical security advisory boards, councils, and task force committees that are instrumental in addressing and developing future security standards and guidelines.

 

Innovation, integrity, and vision—these characteristics drive everything that PBS&J does to address security challenges today and for the future. For more information about PBS&J's services in this area, email SecuritySystemDesign@pbsj.com.
