We hired PPG to do security at a private event and they did an AMAZING job. We then later had an unexpected emergency situation, and without any previous notice, they were able to show up within an hour, handle the situation calmly and professionally to resolve the situation. We are extremely grateful for their services and feel that they are exceeding the previous standards of personal private security.

I have had the privilege of knowing Gordon for many years and have been able to work with him in collaboration for materials related to behavioral threat assessment, physical vulnerability assessment, executive protection principles, and more. Gordon’s experience in both the private and public sector is valuable when customizing security packages which have various degrees of protection, safety, privacy, and training. I highly recommend Gordon and Priority Protection Group, LLC when developing your security strategy and training plans.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ’S
-
What types of security guard services do you provide?
We offer both armed and unarmed security officer services tailored to a variety of environments (commercial sites, retail, residential, industrial, special events). We also integrate “soft skills” (customer service, communication, emotional intelligence) with hard security protocols to better protect people and property.
-
How do you vet and train your security officers?
Our officers undergo a rigorous selection process (background checks, drug screening, reference verification, panel interview, scenario response evaluations) and receive ongoing training in de-escalation, first aid, emergency response, conflict resolution, and site-specific procedures.
-
Can security guards be tailored to my facility’s specific risks?
Yes—before deployment, we conduct a site assessment to understand your facility’s vulnerabilities, threat profile, and operational needs, and then customize guard posts, shifts, patrol routes, post orders, and response protocols accordingly.
-
How do you ensure accountability and performance of your personnel?
We use performance audits using a customized inspection matrix, supervisory spot checks, regular site inspections, incident reporting systems, and client feedback loops. We maintain strict accountability metrics (attendance, incident response, professionalism) to ensure consistent high standards.
-
What is the cost structure for hiring security guards?
Costs depend on variables including number of officers, shifts (day, night, weekends), level of training required (armed vs unarmed), and additional services (patrol vehicles, technology integration). During consultation we present you with a detailed, itemized proposal. We offer sound, high quality security guard services at an economical, but realistic cost. We firmly stand behind our quality and refuse to sacrifice quality for profit – meaning we do not cut corners even when there are budget constraints. PPG are good stewards of your budget available for security guard services. PPG is the superior option for a best value result.

-
What is Workplace Violence Prevention Training (WVPT)?
WVPT is a structured program designed to help organizations proactively identify, prevent, and respond to threats or acts of violence in the workplace. It covers recognizing warning signs, de-escalation techniques, reporting mechanisms, and response protocols. Our training incorporates best practices with your policies, so we reinforce and emphasize your procedures. -
Who should attend this training?
It’s ideal for all levels of staff: senior leadership, managers, HR, security teams, front-line employees, and anyone who interacts with the public or handles conflict. We also offer sessions tailored to specific audiences (e.g. executives, management, houses of worship).
-
How is the training delivered?
We offer flexible delivery: in-person workshops, live virtual sessions, or customer-branded professional videos for employee annual refresher trainings. We can also blend modalities to meet organizational constraints.
-
What outcomes or certifications do participants receive?
At the request of clients, participants may receive a certificate of completion and tangible tools (checklists, flowcharts, policies) they can implement immediately. They’ll gain enhanced ability to spot concerning behavior, intervene safely, and escalate appropriately.
-
How often should this training be repeated?
We recommend annual refreshers, with shorter “refresher briefings” semiannually or quarterly depending on your risk exposure, turnover, and evolving internal or external threats.
-
-
What is Behavioral Threat Assessment (BTA)?
BTA is a systematic, multidisciplinary process for identifying, assessing, and managing individuals who may pose a risk of violence to themselves or others. It draws on behavioral science, security, HR, and sometimes mental health expertise.
-
Why should an organization use BTA consulting?
Early identification and intervention can prevent incidents, reduce liability, protect your people, and support workplace culture by addressing concerning behaviors before escalation.
-
What is included in your BTA consulting service?
We help you establish or refine your threat assessment team, develop policies and procedures, conduct case reviews or threat evaluations, provide coaching to decision makers, and produce a management plan (monitoring, interventions, escalation pathways).
-
How do you protect privacy and legal concerns when assessing individuals?
We follow best practices in legal compliance, confidentiality, data protection, and coordination with HR, legal counsel, and external providers. Our analyses rely on observable behaviors and credible indicators, not mere speculation.
-
Can you assist after a threat or incident has occurred?
Yes. We can conduct incident debriefs, post-incident threat reassessments, adjustments to security posture or protocols, and training for leadership on lessons learned and future prevention.
-
-
What types of cases do you handle in private investigations?
We handle a broad spectrum: background checks, surveillance, fraud investigation, corporate/internal investigations (e.g. theft, misconduct), missing persons, due diligence, and other fact-gathering assignments.
-
How do you maintain confidentiality and ethics in investigations?
All investigations are conducted under applicable laws and industry ethics. We ensure confidentiality, chain of custody for evidence, proper documentation, and compliance with legal and privacy standards.
-
How long does a typical investigation take?
Timeframes vary depending on case complexity, accessibility of information, jurisdictional challenges, and cooperation of parties. Some investigations complete in days; others may take weeks or months. We provide estimates and periodic progress updates.
-
What will I receive at the conclusion of an investigation?
You’ll receive a detailed, organized report summarizing findings, supporting documentation (photos, video, records), and—if applicable—recommendations for next steps (litigation, security measures, policy changes).
-
Are your investigators licensed and bonded?
Yes. We maintain all required licensing (e.g. Utah Private Investigator License P112671) and insurance or bonding as required by jurisdictional regulations, ensuring credibility and compliance.
-
-
What is executive protection (EP), and who needs it?
EP provides close-protection services for high-net-worth individuals, corporate executives, dignitaries, VIPs, and others who face elevated risk. It includes threat assessment, secure travel planning, advance reconnaissance, countersurveillance, and on-site protection.
-
How is EP different from standard security guard services?
While standard guards focus on static posts or patrols, EP involves mobile, proactive, individualized protection — anticipating threats, controlling the environment, and integrating logistics, intelligence, and immediate response.
-
How do you ensure a seamless, discreet protective detail?
We employ trained protection professionals with skills in surveillance detection, countermeasures, conflict avoidance, and close-quarters tactics. We emphasize discretion, seamless coordination, and minimal disruption to client routines.
-
What services are included in an EP package?
Typical services include advance planning and route reconnaissance, secure transportation (vehicles and drivers), protective security detail, intelligence and threat monitoring, crisis response planning, and 24/7 support.
-
How are EP fees structured and what determines cost?
EP costs depend on the duration, location (domestic or international), threat level, number of protectors required, logistics/local factors, and required support assets (vehicles, local liaisons). After consulting with you, we provide a comprehensive cost proposal tailored to your specific risks and mobility needs.
