  • Why did we set up RPS Partnership?

    Our vision when we founded RPS Partnership in 2010 is the same as it is today; to give you peace of mind in our challenging world. 

    The world may be more challenging today than ever before, so we make a difference by keeping people safe and empowering them to find solutions to their security problems.

    We don’t want to be the biggest, but our plan has always been to be the best. We are the market leaders in security consultancy and training. We care about our clients and strive to always give them the best.

    We want to build a relationship with our clients, so they know they can depend on us. When they have that lightbulb moment, they know they can call on us to provide sensible advice to mitigate the risks they are taking in their business, wherever they may be in the world. 

    Our goal is to ensure that your security needs are met in the easiest way we can.

    We have based our company on 3 pillars 

    Trust

    Respect

    Integrity

    What's new about that you may ask?

    We underpin these values by:

    Honesty - if we say we can do something we really can

    Knowledge - if we say we can assist you with something we know about, we really can

    From the jungles of Central America, to the plains of Africa and the fragile states of the Middle East, North Africa and Asia. Our clients trust us to provide end to end security solutions.

    We assess your RISK and help you look after your PEOPLE. We find SOLUTIONS for high risk and high threat situations where you may work in remote, conflict or post conflict as well as hostile environments.

    These three letters of R.P.S are our foundation.

    We can help you when you have lost direction, hit the brick wall or just can’t see how to make a project work. Our clients tell us we are reliable and that they feel comfortable and relaxed around us. They say they feel we are a steady pair of hands when they work with us. 

    We never tell you what to do, we provide you with creative solutions to your security headaches, advising on skills needed, building capacity within your international and national staff, so your ground operations run more smoothly. Personal Security is what we do best. Together with our clients, we form the RPS Partnership.

  • Our Aim

    Our aim is to make your life easier and ensure that your staff are well prepared and safe. Our clients all appreciate our honesty and frankness and know that we will never say we can do a task if we can't.

    We base our values on us and you enjoying ourselves. We want you to enjoy working with us and feel you can ask us anything and that we will advise you to the best of our ability. We will go that extra mile for you.

    Our way of working is to find solutions to your training problems as well as security queries. We listen and then try to solve your problems. 

    We understand how difficult it can be for you working in complex, remote or hostile locations, so we provide advice in the planning stages of the threat and risk assessment process, on the ground support as well as training prior to traveling

    We support many sectors and with each consultant having on average 25-30 years of experience in the commercial, the military, the government, and NGO sectors, this has allowed us to hone our expertise to solve your complex project and security issues whether it be in the UK or Overseas.
