When it comes to securing your people, assets, and operations, making the right decisions is critical. But too often, businesses are sold security solutions based on what’s available—not what’s actually needed. That’s where independent security advice makes all the difference.
Independent security consultants provide objective, vendor-neutral guidance that’s based on your risks and goals—not on selling hardware or software. This approach ensures that your investment is strategic, compliant, and future-proof.
At Smartsec Security Solutions, we provide expert security consulting across Perth and Western Australia, specialising in physical security risk assessments, CCTV, access control, CPTED, and compliance—all without selling products or installation services.
What Independent Security Advice Means
Independent security advice refers to guidance offered by consultants who are not tied to product vendors or installers. This means we:
- Don’t sell or install any equipment
- Have no vested interest in specific brands
- Offer impartial, experience-driven recommendations
- Act solely in the client’s best interest
The result is advice that’s tailored to your actual needs, backed by compliance, and free from sales pressure.
How We Support Your Security Goals
Independent consultants can assist with a wide range of security-related needs. At Smartsec Security Solutions, we’re often engaged to:
- Conduct site-specific physical security risk assessments
- Review or design CCTV systems and camera placement
- Evaluate access control solutions for operational fit and compliance
- Deliver CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) assessments
- Audit control rooms and alarm monitoring centres
- Assist with security tender development and vendor selection
- Develop SOPs and incident response procedures
Each engagement is shaped around your operations, risks, and objectives—not a product catalogue.
Why Independent Advice Saves You Money
Many clients come to us after receiving quotes for expensive system upgrades they don’t fully understand. Because we don’t profit from installations or equipment, our advice is focused on effectiveness and efficiency.
Independent advice can:
- Identify ways to reuse or optimise existing systems
- Ensure you’re not overspending on unnecessary technology
- Help you prioritise improvements based on risk
- Prevent long-term costs associated with non-compliance or poor planning
This strategic, vendor-neutral approach results in smarter spending and better long-term outcomes.
Confidentiality and Professional Integrity
Security reviews often involve sensitive site information, staff procedures, and vulnerabilities. We treat all assessments and documentation with strict confidentiality.
Our reports are never shared with third parties or vendors unless explicitly approved by you. As independent consultants, we don’t sell data, promote third-party brands, or operate in partnership with installers. Everything remains between us and the client.
Advice Grounded in Risk, Not Sales
Our work is based on risk—not on product features. Before recommending any technology or process change, we assess:
- Your unique threat profile
- Operational routines and site constraints
- Compliance requirements under relevant Australian Standards
- Budget and resource availability
Whether you’re dealing with internal access risks, perimeter vulnerabilities, or outdated surveillance, we’ll give you a clear plan for addressing it that’s both practical and defensible.
A Smarter Approach to Compliance
We help clients meet obligations under standards like:
- ISO 31000 for risk management
- AS 3745 for emergency planning
- AS/NZS 1158 for lighting
- AS 2201.2 for alarm monitoring centres
- State-specific WHS laws and privacy regulations
Whether you’re preparing for an audit, funding application, or development approval, our reports provide a clear record of due diligence.
