Rapid GPS-Dispatched Alarm Response
GPS Security Group dispatches GPS-equipped security officers to commercial and industrial alarm sites across Alberta service areas. Real-time officer location helps the dispatch team identify and send the closest available guard.
Physical Response When It Matters
An alarm can indicate that something requires attention, but it cannot attend the property. GPS Security's alarm response security guard service provides a physical security presence when GPS is notified of an activated alarm.
Each GPS Security officer carries a mapping device that allows the dispatch team to view officer locations in real time. The proximity-based approach helps GPS assign an available guard positioned near the affected property.
Security alarm response services can also reduce the need for owners, managers or employees to attend an uncertain situation themselves. Response availability and arrival times depend on officer proximity, staffing and the arrangements agreed for the property.
Response Duties
The response process begins when GPS is notified of an activated alarm at a covered site.
GPS mapping devices allow the dispatch team to view the current locations of available security officers.
Officer location information helps GPS assign an available guard positioned near the affected property.
A mobile security officer is sent to the property, reducing the need for managers or employees to attend an uncertain situation alone.
The assigned guard follows the access procedures, priority areas and response directions established for the property.
Designated contacts and communication procedures can be established as part of the alarm response service plan.
Clearer Alarm Response
Every property has different contacts, operating hours, risks and response requirements. A healthcare facility may need a different notification path than a construction site or retail location.
GPS Security keeps the monitoring process aligned with the instructions established for your site, so an alarm signal does not end with a siren or unattended notification. Designated contacts can be alerted, appropriate authorities can be notified when required and alarm activity can be documented for review.
Alarm monitoring manages the incoming signal and communication process. If your property also requires a security officer to attend, GPS Alarm Response can be arranged as a separate service. This distinction helps you understand exactly what your monitoring plan covers before service begins.
