Security contract and operations checklist

Review promises, exclusions, staffing and incident procedures before a policy discussion.

Short answer

Start with the operation, then discuss the policy

The security contract and operations checklist keeps preparation questions on this device. It does not transmit answers, score a risk or recommend a carrier.

This checklist helps security company owners, private investigators and protective-service operators organize the facts a licensed producer needs to understand. The goal is to present contracts, staffing and field operations accurately.

Coverage names are only a starting point. Forms, endorsements, exclusions, limits and carrier appetite vary. The issued policy controls.
