SAFETY & RISK MANAGMENT
It's not just about providing security during an event, it's about planning for safety and managing risk in advance, during, and after each event.



The Seven Ps of Performance are defined as follows: Prior Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.
Every event, whether a festival, a multi-year global tour, or single day event is planned in advance. Policies, procedures, and documentation are developed with key stakeholders to ensure that safety and emergency planning are completed well prior to the event date.
SHO Services also provides full budgeting development and deployment planning services for local security providers working with its clients at events.
Planning examples include:
- Emergency Procedure Manuals
- Evacuation Plans
- High-wind Action Plans
- Security Advance development
- Security deployment planning
- Security budget development
PLANNING.
Disciplined execution is the difference between potential and true performance.
SHO Services has developed proprietary safety and risk management processes that are followed by all of its representatives at every event to ensure consistency in the execution of safety and risk mitigation programs.
Experienced personnel are embedded and on-site for every event to ensure not only consistency in execution, but to provide further risk management and safety program management leading up to, during, and following each event.
On-site Execution examples include:
- Tour Security Directors & personnel
- Festival Security Directors & personnel
- Event Security Directors & personnel
- Event Safety Directors & consultants
- Event Command Post operations
EXECUTION.
The safety and risk management for an event do not end when the venue is clear, they continue on for years into the future.
If you don't write it down, then it never happened.

Reporting examples include:
- Incident summary reporting
- Event recap reporting
