What This Covers
For enterprise clients, security is not a headcount — it's a program. 1Northwest Security staffs dedicated Corporate Security Managers who own your risk register, run tabletop exercises, and integrate with HR, Legal, Facilities, and IT/InfoSec.
We map to CSA Z1600 (Emergency Management) and ISO 22301 (Business Continuity). Our Workplace Violence Intervention Teams are trained to receive and act on early-warning behavioural indicators before an incident occurs.
Program-level corporate security: access control, workplace violence response, insider threat, executive floors.
From Walkthrough to First Shift.
Every corporate security deployment follows the same four-step engagement — no short-cuts, no template quotes, no officer placed on a site they've never walked.
Discovery Walkthrough
A regional supervisor visits your site, interviews stakeholders, and documents current pain points, existing systems, and shift patterns.
SOP Design
We draft a site-specific Standard Operating Procedure — post orders, escalation ladder, uniform posture, reporting cadence — and review it with your team before deployment.
Officer Selection
Officers are hand-picked from our regional roster based on skill fit, language requirements, and prior experience with your industry. No random assignments.
Deployment & Audit
Coverage begins on the agreed date, with the first two weeks audited by the regional supervisor. We course-correct in real time — not at a quarterly review.

Questions We Get About Corporate Security.
Is Corporate Security Licensed Across Canada?
Yes. Every corporate security deployment is fulfilled by officers who hold a valid provincial licence in the province of work — Ontario PSISA, BC BST, Quebec BSP, Alberta Security Services Licence, and equivalent territorial licences across NWT, YT, and NU.
How Quickly Can You Start a Corporate Security Contract?
For most corporate security engagements we can be on-site within 48–72 hours of a signed proposal. Emergency deployments (e.g. sprinkler-outage fire watch, sudden alarm-response coverage) are often possible the same day.
Do You Scale Corporate Security to Multi-Site Portfolios?
Yes. National portfolios receive a dedicated account manager, single-invoice billing, and consolidated reporting across every site — from a single storefront to a coast-to-coast footprint.
What Certifications Do Your Corporate Security Officers Hold?
Beyond provincial licensing, our corporate security officers complete 80+ hours of onboarding covering WHMIS, mental health first aid, use-of-force theory, de-escalation, and service-specific protocols. Sector-specific certifications (IAHSS, NVCI, EPI, LPQ/LPC, NFPA fire watch, TCP flagger, ICON EP) are held where the service requires them.
How Is Corporate Security Priced?
Pricing depends on staffing hours, licensing tier, uniform posture, and site complexity. 1Northwest Security delivers formal proposals — typically same business day — and never quotes over the phone before understanding the site.
