Value Engineering
Better decisions, better protection, and lower costs from the start
Security program Value Engineering (VE) is often overlooked in commercial and residential construction projects, creating a huge missed opportunity to optimize a site security program's long-term effectiveness and efficiency – Leaving a site with bloated operational costs supporting a security program attempting to counter unknown or poorly defined threats. All built upon wasted capital expenditures.
​
S6RG offers security program VE services beginning in the earliest stages of construction and continuing through completion and commissioning. We ensure security is embedded in a project from the start, mitigating risk and avoiding costly overruns, unanticipated losses, and ineffective post-completion security programs.
​
We identify and mitigate security risks before shovels go in the ground, eliminating the unknowns, minimizing costs, and optimizing program effectiveness while enhancing a site's commercial appeal and viability.
​
Our risk-based approach is disciplined, systematic, and tested, utilizing techniques proven over 20 years of security project management, technology, and program design experience.
