For The CAFTA Report A U.S. security consultancy firm has expanded into Costa Rica and named Hamid Kaber of Heredia president of the organization here. The firm is Security Warriors Group Inc. of Miami, Florida, which says it is the world’s largest distributor of security technology in Latin America. Until now, there was no client-side support available to security buyers in Costa Rica, leaving only the choice of a local alarm vendor — often with less that perfect results, said the firm. Security Warriors of Costa Rica is not designed to compete with local alarm companies, but to bring professionalism to the field, said Kaber, adding "and, when your life, livelihood and possessions depend upon it, you may have only one chance to get it right." "Having spent the past 37 years in this field as a consultant/ engineer, I have gained an in-depth understanding of security problems and how to deal with them," he said. "In my professional career I have worked on projects ranging from Fortune 100 companies like Gillette and Xerox to high rise office complexes and executive residences, including work for the company that designed systems for Bill Gates' home. According to Kaber there is much more to security systems than knowing how to install cables or cameras. It is a discipline that takes many years to master, he said. It involves an understanding of security risks and threats, client operations and lifestyle, changing technology, quality standards and project management, and until this moment, that combination of skills simply did not exist in Costa Rica, Kaber added. Kaber said that he and his firm will work with a client at every stage of a project to review specifications, to review vendors' qualifications and to make sure that the job is done correctly at every critical stage. "This really isn't a new concept. Consultant/engineers have been used for years in the building trades. It's just taken a while for this to impact the way security systems are designed in Costa Rica," he said. The local firm can be reached via e-mail through the Miami firm's Web site. |
