Protective Security Services

Aegis provides comprehensive protective security services tailored to the threat, the operating environment and the specific requirements of its clients.  Each protective security concept is undertaken in discussion with the client and is based on a comprehensive analysis of the factors for each mission or deliverable. Services offered include:

Mobile Security:

Aegis‘s mobile security teams provide bespoke security solutions to facilitate ease of movement and successful business activities in a high threat environment. Aegis’s teams typically provide dedicated mobile security and liaison with relevant authorities and Ministry officials, airport immigration and local security forces.  Our experienced personnel can also provide linguistic support, relevant intelligence and threat analysis, ground study and route analysis for all movements; contingency planning and ‘first line’ medical support in the event of an incident.

Static Security:

Aegis provides high quality and effective static guarding for both Government and Commercial clients. To date we have had no breaches of security at any site.  Aegis’s approach to static guarding is based upon a comprehensive and ongoing analysis of the threats to the location to be guarded, which will inform the design and implementation of the appropriate security solution.

Convoy protection:

Aegis can provide security for cargo being transported between locations and general movement management. Aegis can provide all equipment and services to support the specific requirements of the client.

Canine Services:

Aegis can provide trained Explosive Detection Dogs (EDD) together with experienced handlers. We enhance our clients’ operating abilities by preventing and deterring criminal and terrorist activity, safeguarding contract sites, and providing best-in-class canine services.

Project Management:

For more complex security requirements or projects based at multiple locations, Aegis can provide a project management capability that ensures that all aspects of the security solution are run effectively. This can be further enhanced by a communications system with vehicle tracking and GIS.  An intelligence function can also be offered to provide continuous threat assessments and intelligence relating to the operating environment.

Case Study

  • Location: Iraq

  • Client:US Government, USACE GRD
  • Date: 2004 ongoing
  • Task: Reconstruction Security Support Services
  • Contract Value: $500m+

Profile:

In 2004, Aegis received significant exposure when it was awarded the prime security contract by the US Department of Defense to design the security and intelligence framework to allow reconstruction and nation building to function in Iraq. This contract, now at over $500m, was the largest ever security contract awarded to a private company in Iraq.

This contract has evolved considerably since its launch and at its peak included 1700 contractors across 18 different locations providing Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence (CзI); Mobile Security Services made up of 38 Personal Security Details (PSD), Reconstruction Support through 15 Reconstruction Liaison Teams (RLT), and 2 Close Protection and Escort Teams for US 1-star generals and above; Static Security Services in the form of access and perimeter guard forces for the GRD compounds in Baghdad, Basrah and Tallil; and Pre-Deployment Training for US and UK formations prior to their arrival in theatre.

Aegis also provides the Contractor Operations Centers (CONOCs) countrywide, enabling oversight, movement control and coordination of military support to contractors. Through its management of the CONOCs, Aegis retains a competitive advantage through an unparalleled understanding of the operating environment.
