The Orlando Security Contract Checklist

Your copy is ready. It covers what to verify, what to ask about supervision and relief cover, what reporting to require in writing, and how security rates are actually built.

What is inside

  • How to verify a Florida agency license and an individual officer license yourself, in under five minutes
  • The insurance questions worth asking, and what a straight answer looks like
  • Supervision and relief cover: the three questions that separate firms faster than a rate sheet
  • What reporting and documentation to require in the contract rather than hope for
  • How a bill rate is actually built, and what an unusually low bid has been funded by
  • Contract terms that quietly matter: holiday rates, overtime, minimum shifts, notice periods and site removal clauses
  • The questions to ask about what officers may and may not lawfully do on your property

Why we published this

Most people hiring security in Orlando are doing it for the first time, usually under pressure, usually after something has already happened. That is the worst possible position from which to compare vendors, and it is the position most buyers are in when they sign.

The checklist gives you the questions that reveal how a company actually operates. Use it on us as readily as on anyone else. If our answers are worse than a competitor's, you should hire the competitor.

Want the rate conversation instead?

If you already know what you need covered, skip the reading. Tell us the property type, the hours and whether the post is armed or unarmed, and we will come back with a written figure.
