Our Value Proposition

Unmatched Corporate Level Responsiveness

Proprietary to Contract Security Transitions

We understand the uniqueness of both scenarios and are prepared to deliver on that expertise to you, should we be given the opportunity. Our complete understanding of both scenarios gives us the expertise to service both you and the security officers in such a way as to deliver on our expected results with a seamless transition for you and a positive outcome for your officers.

Professional Security Officer Retention

Because Levy Security Corporation offers one of the most comprehensive benefit packages in the industry for its officers and management, Levy attracts only the highest quality security officer and management candidates, should the need occur either during the transition or after. In addition to the health, welfare and pension benefits secured by our Laborers' International Union of North America (LIUNA), Local # 225 affiliation, our Officers are provided with various levels of incentives, including awards for performance excellence and tuition reimbursement. Our strong positive reinforcement focus on an officer’s performance gives us high quality officers who are loyal to Levy and strengthens their desire to serve you and your property in the way you are accustomed.

Vertical Market Expertise

Many of our Chicago competitors view security as a "one size fits all" proposition – with their core business being class B commercial property, manufacturing, or distribution plants. Little effort or experience is placed in other highly-specialized properties such as healthcare, educational institutions, high-profile commercial properties, residential or corporate complex. With our significant experience in these highly specialized vertical markets, Levy Security Corporation brings highly experienced and educated resources to bear in crafting and executing on a vertical-market specific program customized for your specific needs and requirements.
