Silent Security Solutions, Inc. supports state, local, K-12, higher education, and federal clients with security program assessments, advisory engagements, and procurement-side technical support. We bring 30+ years of operational security experience and the agility of a small business — without enterprise overhead or vendor incentive conflicts.

Different buyers, different rules, same standard of work. Each audience has its own engagement model and contracting path.

NYS Counties, Cities, Towns & Villages
Municipal security program reviews, policy support, technology selection advisory. Familiar with NYS local procurement processes and General Municipal Law §103.

Independent advisory for organizations that fall outside the standard executive-agency procurement track but still need disciplined security guidance.
Six service lines. All advisory, all documented.
Silent Security Solutions is an advisory firm. We do not staff guard posts and we do not sell hardware. Our deliverables are written reports, documented recommendations, and procurement-side support — work a contracting officer or program manager can rely on.
Security Program Assessment & Maturity Review
Independent review of an agency's existing physical, personnel, and information security program. Identifies gaps against established frameworks (NIST CSF, ASIS, agency-specific standards) and produces a prioritized roadmap.
Risk & Vulnerability Assessment
Site walks, document review, and stakeholder interviews to identify and prioritize risks. Deliverable is a written assessment with practical, budget-aware recommendations — not a sales pitch for products.
Policy, Procedure & Compliance Documentation
Drafts and reviews of security policies, incident response plans, post orders, visitor management procedures, and SOPs. Aligned with applicable NYS, federal, and agency-specific requirements.
Security Technology & Vendor Selection Advisory
Independent advisory on access control, video surveillance, alarm monitoring, identity management, and other security technology decisions. We have no vendor partnerships that influence recommendations.
Tabletop Exercises & Incident Response Planning
Facilitated tabletop exercises, plan reviews, and after-action documentation for emergency response, active threat, cyber incident, and continuity-of-operations scenarios.
Procurement & Acquisition Support
Technical assistance with security-related RFPs, RFQs, and statements of work. Spec reviews, evaluator support, and clarification responses to ensure agencies get what they're paying for.

Four ways to put us to work.
Small contract, large contract, sole engagement, or teaming. We size the engagement to the procurement vehicle that fits the buyer.
Discrete assessment
A bounded engagement — site assessment, policy review, tabletop facilitation — delivered against a written statement of work and a fixed price.
Time & materials
Ongoing advisory work billed against an agreed hourly rate card. Useful for programs that need a security advisor on call without a full FTE commitment.
Sub to a prime
Teaming with a prime contractor to deliver a portion of a larger contract. Counts toward the prime's SDVOB / SDVOSB / small-business participation goals.
NYS §165 direct award
For NYS agencies, qualifying discretionary purchases may be awarded directly to Silent Security Solutions as a certified SDVOB, subject to agency thresholds and procurement rules — typically no RFP cycle required for qualifying buys.
