Wednesday September 8 2021 Patrol Solutions <br />leadership presence to field officers and staying in touch with the client's management team. <br />Unarmed Security — Officers will be trained to master the ins and outs of their specific post. They will <br />learn your general rules and regulations, gain familiarity with the downtown area, and learn general <br />information so that they will be capable of interacting with the public. Security officers will observe and <br />report daily activities, and prepare accurate and legible daily activity reports and incident reports (as <br />needed). They will conduct regular patrols and assist your personnel, police, and other law enforcement <br />officials as necessary. They will provide a visible deterrence to unwanted activities and help maintain <br />public safety. <br />Roving Patrols — Officers perform full patrols on a regular basis. These patrols include all areas of the <br />site as designated by the post orders. A visible presence will serve as a deterrent to trespassers and crime, <br />and increase general public safety. Officers will seek to prevent and minimize fire, theft, damage, graffiti, <br />and other unwanted activities. As they make their rounds, they will also ensure that the facilities are <br />secured (doors, windows, gates, locks, etc.) if appropriate. Any unusual incidents or hazardous conditions <br />will be reported to the proper representative and logged. Officers will perform patrols on foot and/or <br />bicycles. <br />Customer Service — All PS officers must undergo and complete customer service training. Officers will <br />support City employees in any capacity as long as the officers can safely complete their post duties. <br />Likewise, officers who work at posts where they will interact regularly with the public will be <br />comfortable doing so. They will be able to provide public information to visitors and have basic <br />knowledge of the general area and services. Officers will, at all times, be polite, courteous, respectful, and <br />responsive to any person authorized to be at the site. <br />Reporting and Documentation — All PS officers are trained to write accurate and detailed reports. <br />Officers will complete the appropriate reports for each shift. The reports are completed online and <br />emailed directly to the client and are searchable. Reports include daily activity reports, conditions reports, <br />incident reports, and others as assigned. Any officer who knowingly falsifies a report will be disciplined <br />up to and including termination from employment. Officers are fluent in English and able to communicate <br />verbally as well as via the report writing system. Officers will maintain a log of security violations and <br />report occurrences to supervisors as quickly as possible. In the event of any maintenance requests, <br />officers will forward such requests to the proper representative. <br />Emergency Response — PS will design and implement an emergency plan that will address all response <br />to threats and potential emergencies at the various sites. The PS corporate emergency response plan is <br />based on the nationally -recognized Incident Command System (ICS) for emergency response. PS <br />understands that changing security needs in the case of an emergency or incident requires PS to respond <br />with additional staff. PS is fully prepared to increase our security services in the event of an escalation in <br />the security level (emergencies, civil unrest, fire, or special events). PS will work closely with your <br />management to escalate and de-escalate the need for additional staffing at the site. In the event of an <br />emergency, PS uses the following procedures to ensure that trained staff are on -hand to fill all shifts at the <br />site, including scheduled absences as well as increases in staffing: <br />Cross -training — PS cross -trains security officers, supervisors, and managers. PS will share an <br />employee list of trained officers available to work at the site and will train more officers per <br />request of client, if needed, <br />• Back-up Staffing — PS will, at all times, have a pool of qualified officers who have received full <br />training and orientation, including post assignments, standards, and procedures. These officers <br />will be able to fill any shift on a short notice. <br />• Emergency Planning — PS operates a corporate emergency response plan based on the <br />nationally -recognized Incident Command System. This plan covers all aspects of emergency <br />response. Our corporate guidelines are designed to help us maintain security services before, <br />PROPOSAL Page 5 <br />
