Security Assessment and Design Services for Public and Private Schools Consulting, Design, Engineering, and Planning of Security Improvements PSE is one of the most active consultants in security assessment, planning, and design including full implementation of engineering and emergency operations strategies. We have experience in assessments spanning hundreds of buildings in millions of square feet, regularly securing tens of thousands of travellers, employees, teachers, students, and visitors daily including five major cities for one client to large educational campuses including high schools, charter schools, and universities in cities and busy metro counties. PSE’s strategies employ deep listening skills which include school operations evaluations with detailed physical assessments coupled with informed recommendations. Immediate and tailored improvements to security policy and procedures are addressed and outlined to provide feedback for improvement and potential breech mitigation tailored with active and coordinated public safety and in-house security force response. America’s schools are not prepared for violent assault nor is there one specific solution that fits every school building, site, or district. That’s why principals of PSE work daily with local sheriffs, police, deputies, and school resource officers, with valuable input from school boards, administration officials, and most importantly, the students. PSE’s 30+ years experience in securing the nation’s critical infrastructure includes designing the largest 9-1-1 system in the U.S., securing ports, international and domestic air terminals, and providing assessment and engineering incorporating new security, post-orders, and procedures for hundreds of facilities. From cultural to justice and government to education, our experience in successfully addressing gaps in security is acknowledged by our clients’ due diligence – selecting PSE because of our wide-ranging skill sets, responsiveness, and experience. Through a Zoom session or introductory meeting, we would welcome the opportunity to reflect on: 1) user needs, 2) operations evaluations, 3) critical security infrastructure improvements, and most importantly, 4) successfully addressing day-to-day implementation of improvements to safety planning with security assets.

Securing the Learning Environment Security Solutions When it comes to the security of your educational facility; PSE’s diverse and experienced team emphasizes proven technology and tailored systems comprised of easily maintainable and upgradable components. As independent consultants, PSE works closely with the project team to ensure systems meet performance expectations without exceeding project budgets.

Professional Systems Engineering, LLC (PSE) strongly believes in providing the highest level of service to our educational clients. We focus on each facility’s unique needs to provide recommendations that bridge the gap between technological solutions and operational effectiveness. PSE’s capabilities extend beyond specifying technology. We provide assessments, master planning, and programming services for security, life safety, communications, and network design and infrastructure to protect Newark Central High School people, property, and information. Newark, New Jersey PSE has experienced security managers, former law enforcement officers, field electronics experts, and certified network engineers who work together with the school to develop well-coordinated security programs. PSE works with facility administrators and staff to develop sensible and fiscally responsible programs and phasing. A key element of this is our ability to develop plans that allow for maintaining legacy systems while migrating to current technology in a smooth and disruption-free transition.

Campus Safety and Security Programs Two key philosophies are prominent in our security programs and designs. The first is the concept of simple operational security. Systems must focus on not only providing the best level of security, but also stress a simple to operate and easy to maintain system. The second key philosophy is the design of integrated systems. PSE emphasizes integrated systems to help find innovative uses for security and safety systems in ways that enhance the safety of the learning environment.

Critical Network Communications PSE has provided advanced systems for communications, educational technologies, multi-media, and related building systems since 1986. We have extensive experience providing complete network infrastructure and information technology systems. The reliability and accessibility of security systems during normal conditions and emergency response is dependent upon durable and scalable communications networks to keep pace with new technology. PSE pays careful attention to the details to ensure that from the equipment room to the classroom, security and safety systems resources are dependable, available, and resilient.
