What makes us different

At Blackbird Security, we leverage a variety of programs, strategies, and tools that set us apart in the industry. Read below to discover the Blackbird Difference! 

How we reduce our carbon footprint

Grouping Patrols
Grouping together our patrols geographically and patrol schedule to reduce emissions
Bike Patrols
Using bike patrols, instead of vehicle patrols, wherever possible (based on client preference)
Smart Driving
Asking our guards to drive smart, and not drive the vehicle unless on a scheduled patrol
Vehicle Service
Regularly servicing our vehicles, tire pressure / maintenance of automotive parts,  to increase fuel efficiency
Buying Carbon Offsets
Regularly purchasing carbon offsets through climate protection projects such as Myclimate and Terrapass. A carbon offset is a credit for emissions reductions that help companies achieve net neutral carbon emissions
Recycled Uniforms
The majority of our uniforms are free from environmentally perfluorinated carbons (PFCs) and are made using recycled polyester

Yes, most countries and regions (including Canada) have licensing bodies and regulations that govern security providers. Check local laws to ensure your provider complies with these standards.
How do I measure the effectiveness of security measures?
Measuring the effectiveness of security measures involves tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate how well systems and personnel are meeting safety and asset protection goals. Start by analyzing incident response times, reductions in theft, vandalism, or shrinkage, and overall resolution rates for reported issues. Comparing pre- and post-implementation data helps demonstrate tangible improvements in safety and loss prevention. Regular audits, surveys, and risk assessment reports can also gauge the reliability and perception of security measures.

Key KPIs to track include:
- Incident response times: Faster responses to alarms or emergencies.
- Reduction in theft/vandalism: Compare loss data before and after implementation.
- Patrol compliance: Track patrol frequency and adherence via GPS or logs.
- False alarm rates: Lower rates ensure focus on real threats.
- Client/Employee satisfaction: Gather feedback to measure confidence in security.
- Client services: Dedicated account representative who supports ongoing needs & can adjust strategy as needed
