About Us

When a business is family-run, relationships and reputation are paramount. The Ferdinando family and the Building Security Services (BSS) Leadership Team provide the same level of expertise as the largest security firms, including outstanding staff and service, cutting-edge technology, and round-the-clock coverage.

What separates BSS from its competitors is our Leadership Team’s dedication to understanding and catering to individual clients’ security needs, our mission, and our responsiveness.

Strong relationships and good listening skills are an essential ingredient to tailoring a unique program for each client.

The difference is in the details:

• Post orders are specifically developed and updated for every client
• Uniforms are tailored to meet individual needs
• Managers vetted for qualifications and experience ensure consistent delivery of service that meets and exceeds contracted specifications

The Leadership Team provides:

• More than 100 years of combined experience in law enforcement, security management, and training
• Staff guidance and supervision from the classroom to site assignments
• Routine performance reviews at each staff level to ensure superior service commensurate with established company policy and philosophy
