On data center sites with their own inductions and security standards, that is a risk.<\/p>\n<h2>What to look for when choosing a provider<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Does the provider use its own permanently employed staff?<\/li>\n<li>Is there a fixed staff pool that knows the project?<\/li>\n<li>Is cover for absences firmly committed?<\/li>\n<li>How quickly can additional staff be mobilised?<\/li>\n<li>Is there one fixed point of contact who can also be reached at night?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How we solve this at Solid Safety<\/h2>\n<p>We only deploy our own staff \u2013 no floaters. If someone drops out, we guarantee cover: no position stays unfilled. We usually mobilise new teams within 48 hours, and you have one fixed point of contact right up to management.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>A security provider&#8217;s reliability does not show in the quote but on the day someone calls in sick.
