CFATS White Paper © 2009
Business Protection Specialists, Inc. (BPS) is pleased to provide this white paper for CFATS compliance activities for regulated facilities. In this paper you will find a summary of key challenges, information on the alternate security program (ASP) and the potential benefits of an ASP. We will also provide you with a typical implementation plan outline developed from our experience conducting twenty-five CFATS SSP implementation plans for facilities in all tiers (one through four). Finally, we will provide a discussion on the points to consider when hiring an outside firm to assist in compliance activities. Everyone from law firms, security systems vendors and consultants are offering compliance services. In this complimentary white paper, you will get insight into the pros and cons of each of the resources. Look for an article by BPS in the upcoming Chemical Processing Magazine.
