Thursday, January 20, 2022 Patrol Solutions PROPOSAL Page 19 during, and after an emergency. This includes situations such as earthquakes, major fires, major civil unrest, or major escalation of the security level. Because each client and each situation is unique, PS works with management to implement preventive measures such as training and emergency planning. • Emergency Response Vehicle – PS operates an emergency response vehicle especially equipped for emergency situations and special events. Our emergency equipment is always at the ready, and includes power generators, indoor/outdoor lighting systems, light rescue equipment. All of the emergency equipment is checked monthly. This specially-equipped vehicle enables PS to respond during an emergency incident or scheduled special events. Management Plan Every shift, we have at least one mobile field team manager on duty who is equipped to provide proactive site supervision and support. The field team manager provides oversight to officers in the field and has the authority to discipline and train officers as needed. In the event of any incidents, the FTM will arrive on the scene. An FTM can be reached 24-7 via phone. The FTMs will report to Felix Guerrero. He has full authority to address any problems and issues raised by the City, including (but not limited to) increases and decreases in staffing and disciplinary problems. He will manage the FTMs to ensure that every level of performance has accountability. Our management team will be available for regularly scheduled meetings with City security liaisons to ensure that all aspects of the security program are meeting expectations. Supervision We maintain a 1 to 4 supervisor/lead officer to security officer ratio. In addition, we provide a 1 to 20 manager to officer ratio in order for our team to receive updated training and other important company news. Maintaining a positive connection between officers, the client, and our management is critical to reducing turnover. Officers designated as supervisors help ensure that the other officers are carrying out their duties properly during their assigned shift. Supervisors are more seasoned, experienced, and capable than lower-level officers. Field Team Managers (FTMs) check in at every site daily in order to ensure that all of the officers are meeting client expectations and performing well. Random Site Inspections: Patrol Solutions conducts unannounced site checks at least once per day. These site inspections are conducted by one of our managers, a group which includes the field team managers and higher (operations manager and regional manager). Proactive Field Support: The Patrol Solutions field team manager (FTM) program is a critical aspect of our proactive quality control process, which distinguishes us from other security providers. At other security companies, managers tend to go on-site as a response to complaints, after a problem has arisen. At PS, our managers personally take initiative to visit sites, thereby providing a visible leadership presence to field officers and staying in touch with the client’s management team. Leadership’s Role: Every day, each site receives an on-site inspection from a field team manager (FTM) who has the authority to review performance and perform corrective actions if necessary. These unannounced checks help motivate officers to remain alert. The FTM: Our FTM program sets us apart from all other security providers. This position is staffed by an experienced leader who maintains daily contact with multiple sites and is duly qualified to evaluate field officer performance. General Start-up Plan Our transition plan begins once we receive the awarded contract. The client immediately will begin to experience a more disciplined, thorough, and systematic approach to security service. PS will: Exhibit 1
