04 Capabilities
Travel Security & Protective Support
Close protection, travel risk intelligence, secure transport and protective support in hostile environments.
Protective work is intelligence-led before it is physical. Most incidents are avoided by understanding a route, a location or a pattern of exposure — not by the presence of another person in the vehicle.
This capability concerns the protection of people in movement. The protection of assets, ownership interests and family exposure is a separate capability: Wealth Protection & Protective Intelligence.
Close Protection
- Protection plans built to a specific risk profile rather than a standard package
- Experienced protective personnel drawn from military, law-enforcement and specialist backgrounds
- Continuous or task-specific coverage for executives, principals and at-risk personnel
- Discreet operation: protection that does not disrupt the principal’s professional and personal life
Travel Risk Intelligence & Itinerary Planning
- Pre-travel risk assessment of political, security, health and social conditions at destination
- Secure itinerary design: routing, accommodation assessment and timing
- Local counterparty and fixer assessment
- Continuous monitoring during travel, with defined escalation thresholds
Protective Support in Hostile Environments
For principals working in conflict-affected regions, high-crime environments or areas with weak institutional control.
- Protective operations in hostile and semi-permissive environments
- Executive protection in high-risk urban settings
- Contingency planning, relocation and evacuation procedure
- Coordination with local authorities and medical capability
Personnel preparation for these environments is delivered through HEAT under Security Advisory & Training.
Secure Transport & Journey Management
- Armoured and protected vehicle coordination
- Trained protective drivers and route analysis
- Convoy procedure for group movement
- Journey management: route selection, alternates, communications and check-in discipline
