Implementation Journey

From First Walkthrough to Continuous Protection

Every SAPP deployment is built around your organisation. There is no off-the-shelf install. But there is a proven structure that makes sure nothing gets missed and your team can run things on their own by the end.

Four Phases. Typically 8–12 Weeks. Always Bespoke.

The timeline below is a generic reference. In practice, a single-floor fintech office may complete in six weeks. A multi-campus pharmaceutical operation with 40 buildings may take several months or even years. The phases stay the same. The depth and duration scale to your complexity.

What does not change: every engagement starts with a physical audit (not a software deployment), every configuration reflects your actual org chart and compliance requirements, and every team member who touches the platform receives hands-on training tailored to their role.

01

Weeks 1–3

Discovery and Proximity Audit

Before we install anything, our team walks your site and conducts a full physical proximity audit. This gives us the baseline. Without it, the platform has nothing to measure or track.

Key Deliverables

On-site walkthrough of all facilities, floors, and sensitive zones
Three-tier threat classification across behavioural, technical, and espionage vectors
Photographic evidence portfolio with risk annotations
Initial Proximity Risk Maturity Score (your starting baseline)
Custom threat model tailored to your industry, geography, and operational profile

Every organisation is different. A pharmaceutical R&D lab has different risks than a law firm or a trading floor. The audit adapts to your environment. There is no one-size-fits-all checklist.

02

Weeks 3–6

Platform Configuration and Onboarding

Once the audit is done, we set up the platform to match your organisation. We load your floor plans, map out who gets notified about what, pick the right compliance frameworks, and tag your physical assets.

Key Deliverables

Interactive floor plan setup (2D layout of your facility)
QR-coded tamper-seal deployment on critical hardware and access points
Dispatch routing configuration (IT, Facilities, Print Services, Emergency Red-Line)
Compliance framework mapping (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, or your specific standard)
Mobile companion app provisioned for patrol and verification staff
Role-based access setup for security directors, compliance officers, and facilities managers

This is not a template install. Your notification routes, escalation paths, and compliance settings reflect how your organisation actually works, not how a software vendor thinks it should.

03

Weeks 5–8

Training and Operational Handover

The platform only works if people know how to use it. We train everyone who touches it: security operators running patrols, compliance officers pulling reports, and IT teams closing tickets.

Key Deliverables

Security operator training: patrol workflows, mobile app, tamper-seal scanning
Compliance officer training: Evidence Lockbox, audit reports, reading the maturity score
IT and Facilities training: ticket workflows, how to verify and close findings
Executive briefing: dashboard walkthrough, what the scores mean, how to read trends
Runbook documentation written for your internal processes

Training is not a one-day session followed by a PDF. We work alongside your team for weeks, practising the actual workflows until they are comfortable running the platform without us.

04

Weeks 6–12

Connecting to Your Existing Systems

In the final phase, we connect the SAPP platform to the systems you already have. Access control, network monitoring, guard management. Everything feeds into one place so you go from periodic inspections to round-the-clock visibility.

Key Deliverables

API integration with your access control system (badge logs, door events)
Network monitoring probe connection for physical port and device tracking
Guard patrol system integration (route compliance, checkpoint verification)
Automated evidence collection so nobody has to upload anything manually
First quarterly review and maturity score trend analysis

Not every organisation is ready for full integration straight away. Some start with manual patrols and add system connections over the following quarters. The platform works either way.

This Is Not a One-Off Project

Once the four phases are done, your organisation has a working physical security monitoring setup. The platform does not need SAPP staff on-site to run. Your people handle the patrols, close the tickets, and pull the compliance reports.

We stay available for quarterly reviews, advanced TSCM work, and platform updates. But the day-to-day operation belongs to your team. That is how you build real security culture instead of depending on an outside vendor.

Quarterly

Maturity Score Review

We sit down together and look at how your scores are trending, how fast issues are getting fixed, and whether new risks have appeared.

On Demand

TSCM and Tactical Ops

Advanced sweeps and tactical situational awareness for board meetings, M&A events, or incident response.

Continuous

Platform Updates

New features, compliance updates, and routing improvements are pushed to your platform automatically.
