It’s Not a Success Unless It’s Safe: Special Event Security

Safety is always the number one priority when hosting or administrating a public or high-volume special event. Even with the best-laid plans, your special event can’t be a triumphant success unless it’s 100% safe for your esteemed guests and attendees. With Sentinel’s New York State-certified event security professionals, you’ll know your special event guests are in good hands.

Many event planners choose to hold their special events in open-air venues or, especially during colder months, large auditoriums, halls and arenas. While this is a great way to create an impressive atmosphere, it also poses numerous safety and security risks. Trade shows, dinners, and fundraisers filled with items of high value can become targets for theft or even terrorism. Improperly guarded outdoor events can be accessed by potential trespassers, kidnappers, thieves, and other wrongdoers. That’s where Sentinel comes in.

Sentinel provides full security services for the following events and venues:

  • Corporate Events
  • Corporate Dinner Events
  • Celebrity Fundraisers
  • Jewelry Shows
  • Expos & Trade Shows
  • Movie & Production Sets
  • World Premieres
  • Sporting Events
  • Sports Team Private Events
  • Private Parties and Functions
  • Product Launches
  • Corporate Holiday Parties
  • Fashion Shows
  • Art Galleries
  • PR Events
  • Concerts

Our security team is picked from among the most highly-qualified and expertly trained armed guards in the business. Our armed guards are an effective deterrent against violent crime, as they are equipped with the skills and training necessary to put a stop to a dangerous situation before it even begins. We even offer VIP close protection security for individual safety.

Make the Right Hire with Pentagon Check

Your company is only as strong as the people in it. You have too much invested – financially, physically and emotionally – to put it at risk. New employees are often entrusted with big responsibilities and sensitive information, so it’s critically important that you know whether or not a potential team member has a clean background. Unfortunately, many background checks advertised on the market are no more than online searches that can show you bits and pieces of a person’s history at most. Don’t make an employment decision with anything less than a thorough background check from Sentinel Management Group.

Sentinel’s Pentagon Check consists of intensive, five-step background screening process, giving you the ability to access complete and accurate information about all your potential hires:

  • SSN Trace & Address Locator: provides complete identifying information (such as name, name variations, and date of birth), as well as resident history, by uncovering current and former addresses associated with a candidate’s Social Security number (SSN), restricting the candidate from omitting a place of residence where he or she may have a pending charge, arrest, or criminal record.
  • National Criminal Records Indicator: searches multi-jurisdictional criminal databases which may uncover offenses in areas out-of-state.
  • Statewide & County Criminal Record Searches: automatically orders the appropriate county and/or statewide criminal record searches for a minimum seven-year period.
  • Federal Criminal Record Searches: searches for serious offenses that may only be reported in the federal district courts and therefore omitted from standard county or statewide criminal record searches, including child pornography offenses, mail and wire fraud, drug trafficking, immigration law violations, and bank robbery.
  • Driving Record Search: obtains applicant’s driving records. This is especially important if an applicant will drive a company vehicle. Motor vehicle information can also look into character issues such as suspended licenses, failures to appear in court, arrest warrants, and drug- and alcohol-related driving offenses that can serve as a warning of potential substance abuse problems.

Your business is very important to you. Make sure your candidates are the right people for the job, in both competence and character. Contact Sentinel Management Group today for a thorough background screening you can trust with Sentinel’s Pentagon Check.

Protect Your Assets with Sentinel’s Security Assessment

When it comes to protecting your corporate assets in the New York Metro area, you need an air-tight plan of action for dealing with any possible threats. Our Security Assessment does just that by providing a comprehensive review and analysis of your organization’s safety and security function. This in-depth analysis uses a variety of techniques to provide you with a plan to secure your organization. Below are some of the factors we consider:

  • Facility characterization: We develop a thorough description of the facility itself, including the location of the site boundary, building locations, floor plans, and access points. This analysis also includes detailed outlines of the processes and activities there, and identifies any existing physical protection features, resulting in a virtual schematic of the facility’s structure and weak spots.
  • Threat: We then develop scenarios of individual design basis threats, including types of possible adversaries, concentrating on tactics and capabilities.
  • Likelihood: Finally, we utilize case studies and historical data to assess the likelihood of each threat and plan accordingly.

You need to make sure your assets (both your physical property and your data) are equipped with the very best security. Sentinel will give you the peace of mind of a securely-protected business. Contact Sentinel Management Group today to begin your Security Assessment.

Fire Safety: An Essential Part of Any Job Site

As a contractor or project manager, your objective is not just to get the job done quickly, but to get it done safely as well. When securing an area, it is important to take more than just outside threats into account. Without proper fire security and emergency action planning, you can be at risk of serious danger. This is especially true at construction sites. If you are a contractor or a subcontractor working on a job site, you need to make sure that your employees, associates, and bystanders are protected from potential fire hazards and other related emergencies. Should anything dangerous occur under your watch, you’ll be held accountable. This could spell dire consequences, such as massive financial losses and even jail time. Trust Sentinel Management Group to ensure this never happens to you.

Designated fire watch personnel are required by law to be present on a job site that contains flammable materials, or requires the use of open flames, welders, propane torches, powered saws, and other spark-emitting pieces of equipment. Don’t dilute your workforce by designating one of your crew as fire watch. Protect your site with a trained, professional fireguard.

Sentinel helps you safeguard your job site from fire hazards and emergencies. Our fire safety directors and fire guards are experienced, highly trained professionals, and all are licensed security officers as well. We understand the importance of fire safety and security and use our expertise to make our clients’ job sites safe and secure from all possible threats. Our guards can also assist you with your emergency action plan.

Our fire safety directors and fire guards can help you with fire, disaster, crisis, and emergency response for:

  • Security & fire safety for hotels, hi-rise buildings, and office buildings.
  • Special events
  • Cargo security and warehouses
  • Sporting events

Don’t leave a fire hazard to chance. Protect your employees and your investments by preparing accordingly for any potential danger. Contact Sentinel today, so you can complete your next construction project with our fire security experts. Choose safety. Choose Sentinel.
