At LMS, we are fully dedicated to assisting our clients in managing their security service providers.

By improving service efficiency and deploying security resources effectively we ensure that our clients receive
the best service with the goal of achieving 100% service delivery in their area of operations.

With an ever-evolving security landscape, traditional
security provider’s long-term static planning can quickly become obsolete.

At LMS we are constantly analysing and adapting our strategy
to the current security landscape and operational environment.

We remain independent and receive no profit, incentives or benefits from the service providers deployed.

LMS aims to provide our clients with a bird’s eye view of their operations by giving them full situational awareness of their area of operations. Our dedicated team oversees, guides and assesses all service providers including technicians, security members, drone operators, K-9 units, and tactical response teams. Our focus is not limited to service providers; we also ensure we understand the limitations and weaknesses of the area by conducting comprehensive assessments and mapping.

We ensure that our clients get the most out of their service providers while condensing their management down to one
point of contact allowing them to dedicate more resources and time to their core business operations.

About

What we do

LMS was founded with a passion to secure infrastructure and optimize goods delivery ultimately having
a positive effect on the South African economy. Understanding that security is only one part of the
eco-system and that the whole eco-system needs to be understood, LMS’s focus is to ensure the environment is looked at in its entirety, to create an absolute situational awareness enabling proactive decisions to be made. The client needs to be confident in the security solution and see the results, not only in the reduction of security incidents but in the decrease in security losses.
