Managed security services

Managed security services in Montserrat

Business and government activity in Montserrat is centred in the north of the island, around Brades, Little Bay and Salem, since Plymouth was abandoned after the volcanic eruptions of the 1990s. Little Bay is the island’s port and ferry landing, and new commercial and public projects are concentrated there and in Brades.

Security considerations in Montserrat

Client sites in Montserrat are typically offices, shops, the Little Bay port area, construction sites and accommodation in the north of the island. Visitors arrive by ferry from Antigua at Little Bay or by air at John A. Osborne Airport, and activity rises during the St Patrick’s Festival in March and the Christmas festival season. A managed program applies the same Post Orders, supervision and reporting format at every site, and the small size of the market means relief officers and supervision should be planned in advance. English is the working language.
