FAQs

Everything from a single screening checkpoint to a full venue-wide review — including risk assessments, emergency and incident response planning, access control and screening configuration, first-responder coordination, and staff training.
Live events bring large crowds into complex environments where the stakes are high, and the margin for error is small. A clear-eyed, independent review helps you find gaps before they become incidents, and shows guests, staff, and stakeholders that safety is taken seriously.
Managing Partner & Chief Listening Officer Russ Simons personally oversees every Safety & Security engagement, bringing decades of hands-on venue operations experience to each.
Before you need it — and on a regular basis after that. Threats, events, and venue layouts change, so the strongest programs are reviewed and updated proactively rather than after an incident.
