THE CHALLENGE
The client was running three separate security vendors across mine gatehouse, worker camp, and ore-transport escort — with inconsistent reporting, staffing gaps, and repeat regulator citations for contractor sign-in audit trails.
[ 02 ]
THE APPROACH
We consolidated the entire operation under one Alberta Security Services command. Every officer certified in H2S Alive, CSTS-2020, CSO, and site-specific orientations. A single client portal for reporting. Ore-transport escorts radio-linked to the mine gatehouse and city command post.

THE OUTCOME
- Zero regulator sign-in audit findings across 4 consecutive quarters
- Contractor gate wait times reduced 58%
- Turnaround manpower spun up in under 6 hours (previous vendor: 3+ days)
- Consolidated reporting cut security admin overhead 40%
