The contractor Wilson James has a new business division, covering risk and threat management. The Risk Advisory Service offers the firm says practical, bespoke solutions for corporate clients, private individuals and families. The service has four parts – Security Consultancy, Intelligence, Protection/Bodyguard Services and Training. These can be used alone or in combination, depending on the requirement, the firm says, and together according to the firm they further the company’s proposition as a single point of contact for all types of security.
Consultancy includes strategic security reviews, development of corporate security policy and strategy documents, major incident and contingency planning, risk and threat assessments, travel security, and security auditing. Support provided by Wilson James ranges from a full strategic review and a transformation strategy, to improving a specific element of an operation. By identifying potential risks – whether personnel, systems, policy or procedure based – a unique solution can be configured and implemented, according to the company.
The Intelligence service is designed for organisations looking to carry out due diligence in areas such as mergers and acquisitions and the examination of corporate fraud and financial impropriety. Areas of potential risk can be identified through checks on backgrounds and reputations of companies and individuals. Other services include threat monitoring and horizon scanning, private investigations and surveillance, with evidence gained through human intelligence, computer forensics, and online social media investigations.
A Training service offers courses in security management, medical, security auditing, fraud prevention, kidnap and ransom response and awareness, strategic security, travel security, and security awareness.
Marc Bannister, Operations Director – Northern Region at Wilson James, said: ‘The importance of a clearly defined and implemented security strategy cannot be overstated and organisations in all vertical sectors now realise that expert guidance is an invaluable part of this process. Our Risk Advisory Service helps set us apart and is a valuable addition to our existing range of specialist security services. We will continue to develop this offering to meet the ever changing needs of our clients and achieve our strategic objective of being a complete end-to-end security solutions provider.’
