Key Findings:
- Nine private companies each have total security service revenues over $100
million, four of which have over $300 million.
- More than 15,000 firms, most of which are private, participate in the $27.3
billion US contractual security services market.
- Small to midsized private companies are able to compete due to the localized
nature of the security services industry and low barriers to entry in most major
market segments (e.g., guard, investigative and consulting services).
- There have been many acquisitions involving private security service firms
in recent years, due to increasing efforts on the part of large firms to
diversify their service offerings, expand their geographic markets and increase
their market share.
- California has the greatest concentration of private security service
establishments with over 3,500, while Florida, Texas and New York have over
1,000 each.
- US demand for contractual security services is forecast to rise 7.9 percent
per annum to $40 billion in 2004.
