Vendor Application

Requirements to Join the Vendor Network

Protos has strict standards for which vendor applicants are accepted into the vendor network. In order to determine if you are able to meet the minimum requirements needed to join the Protos Vendor Network, please review the information below before applying.

Licensure
New vendors must be licensed guarding companies (if operating in a state which regulates guarding companies). As the company of record, we are required to have your license information on file.

• General and professional liability policies are usually written together. Protos requires that you carry both lines of coverage with policy limits at $1 million per occurrence, and $2 million in aggregate.

• Workers compensation coverage is typically available through a state-sponsored plan, or via individual insurance policy. If you intend to handle armed assignments of any duration, or long-term assignments of any kind, you must have a WC policy with a coverage limit of $500k. This is typically available either as a private policy from your broker, or via a state-sponsored WC plan.

• Compliance Specialists will authenticate all insurance documents submitted to Protos by contacting your broker or carrier for verification.

Other Requirements

Applying vendors must agree to perform pre-employment drug screenings and background checks, have a program for ongoing random drug testing, and agree NOT to subcontract security personnel from another company who may not be as diligent as we require
