Perimeter Protection The Palm Beach Marina Grove (PBMC) requires creating a new perimeter protection plan that will take into account the new construction and structure that will be opened (i.e. The Palm Beach Marina Cove Building Two or PNMC II). It is going to be sitting directly to the east of the PBMC. The new changes will mean making temporary and permanent transformations in the protocols and procedures. (Garcia, 2007)

To understand how this is accomplished requires focusing on the basic strategy that will be utilized. This will be achieved through carefully looking at different recommendations, options for safeguarding the perimeter during construction, providing a rational for these proposals and an estimated budget for these transformations. Together, these elements will highlight the best approach for helping the PBMC to deal with its current and future security related issues. (Garcia, 2007)

Recommendations based on best practices in perimeter protection for a construction site that integrates with the contiguous existing building

The best practices for perimeter protection are to have a solution that has increased surveillance / monitoring and flexibility. These factors will make it easier to integrate the construction site with the contiguous building. The way that this can...

They will alert personnel for any changes and direct them to specific areas where there could be potential breaches. (Garcia, 2007)
Moreover, a series of cameras will be directed to a central security monitoring center. They have the responsibility for watching for possible issues and notifying personnel about possible breaches early. This will be accomplished through having added training sessions. During this time, security staff members will learn about potential areas to be aware of and what they should do when they discover a warning sign. This will make it difficult for anyone to establish a presence around the perimeter. When this happens, the odds of an incident decrease from having active monitoring, reporting and response times. (Garcia, 2007)

Options to consider to properly safe guard the perimeter of both sites during construction

The option that needs to be considered to protect the perimeter is increased monitoring. This is because there will be more people coming and going. The key is to watch for unusual activity and having all materials sent to specific locations. Anything that is out of the ordinary is immediately isolated as a potential threat. This is when teams can be dispatched to address these issues. If this…
