Security Considerations in Bucaramanga

The metropolitan area brings together four municipalities connected by roads with heavy traffic at peak hours, which affects travel times between sites and the scheduling of reliefs. Stores in shopping centers in Bucaramanga and Floridablanca need to coordinate opening, closing and merchandise receiving hours with each center’s management. Afternoon downpours, frequent in certain seasons, make it necessary to plan shelter and procedures for uncovered entrances and parking lots.

Clinics, universities and offices in Cabecera and downtown combine a high flow of visitors with restricted areas, which requires reception desks with clear registration and defined criteria for access to administrative floors. The Feria Bonita in September and the December season increase traffic at shopping centers and change their hours. A single site may need reception officers, vehicle control and event support depending on the time of year.

Common Questions

Can One Program Cover Sites in Bucaramanga, Floridablanca, Girón and Piedecuesta?

A program can include sites in several municipalities of the metropolitan area under the same Post Orders and the same reporting standard. The number of officers, the hours and the relief logistics for each site are reviewed separately before the proposal is issued.

How Is Security Guard Coverage Priced?

Rates depend on the officer classification, hours, schedule and site requirements. McCray provides a written rate schedule after reviewing the needs of each site. Holiday, overnight and short-notice coverage is billed at a premium rate.
