Security System Design
Meeting Your Needs With Effective Security System Design
At its core, an effective security system design will deter, detect, address, respond to and interdict the threats and risks that disrupt a safe work environment. Our physical security consultants have the in-depth knowledge of current industry standards and options to make sure the security design you get is one that meets your needs – and your budget.
Security system design with BPS
When approached as a stand-alone project, a security-only design protects investments by correctly assessing risk, properly applying available technologies, and considering the lifecycle of those technologies. Let us help you sort through the options to find the equipment that meets your needs and your budget.
Our experience in the industry means you can expect BPS to:
- Connect you with the technology that is right for your industry, facility, and needs
- Evaluate installation contractors, using an established process to vet options through background checks and qualifications validation

Steven’s competency and partnership has been amazing. He’s provided both a technical expertise and real-world perspective that is invaluable.
Joshua A., AffinivaxI was very pleased with how BPS developed a “turn-key” process for Abbott to comply with the IA rule. What I mean is BPS developed a regulatory compliant methodology to conduct the VA’s; apply the VA’s to the FDP’s and; provide the subject matter expertise to carry out the VA’s and develop the plans themselves. In addition, BPS remained and continues to remain a partner that Abbott can reach out to for advice, guidance and additional project support when needed. The partnership developed between BPS and Abbott has been good for our business.
Robert A, Abbott NutritionWe truly value the role BPS plays in our access control master plan and we continue to have them consulting for us on cutting edge physical security improvements such as the current project underway to supplement the turnstile project with enhanced weapons screening.
Mark Manthei, Security Systems Administrator Froedtert HospitalBPS has helped to build the necessary competencies in the pipeline terminal personnel who are not security professionals, yet still need to be key players in our day-to-day security program. BPS developed effective training programs that we could deploy across our national learning management system for cost effective delivery. Your team has helped us to stand up a sustainable security program that continuously improves year after year based upon the way it has been built and the training you have provided for our organization.
