3. Established
3
Protective Services Group, Inc. (PSGI) was initially established
as the security service sector of the partnership which Mr. Hurst and
Ms. Rolfingsmeier began in 1996. The company grew in size,
scope and area of service. In 2003, due to the complexity of
operations, the various service sectors reorganized into separate
companies, i.e. an investigation services company; a security
services company; and an alarm installation and monitoring service
company. This reorganization was effective on January 1, 2004
when Protective Services Group, Inc. was incorporated by Mr. Hurst
and Ms. Rolfingsmeier. Ms. Rolfingsmeier’s majority ownership
qualifies PSGI as a woman owned small business enterprise.
PSGI is currently authorized to conduct business in 48 states
and the District of Columbia. The company also has a security
agency license in 35 of the 38 states requiring such license.
Licensing in the state of Utah is pending and the licensing process
has begun for the state of New Mexico. A state listing with
certificate numbers and license numbers is attached.

4. PSGI recently had a government security contract with the Army’s
Surface Deployment and Distribution Command Headquarters (SDDC) at
Scott Air Force Base, Illinois. PSGI holds a Secret Facility Security
Clearance. PSGI is also in the process of obtaining a listing on the GSA
Schedule.

11. The goal of Protective Services Group continues to remain the same since our inception in
1996 - TO PROVIDE WELL TRAINED/WELL PAID PROFESSIONAL SECURITY OFFICERS
WHICH MEET THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS OF EACH CLIENT. Every client poses a new
challenge to meet and goal to achieve. We do not work on a quantity of bodies basis. We pride
ourselves on the quality of the officer to meet the specialized requirements of each client.
In 2001, MADI - a labor relations company based in Boston, Massachusetts contacted
PSGI to place 100 plus security officers at a large food manufacturing and distribution company
in the Chicago area. PSGI delivered the guards properly licensed and trained in Illinois. Based
on this initial contact, PSGI proposed a long term partnership between MADI and PSGI to
provide all their security nationwide. In order to provide this nationwide security force, PSGI had
to obtain the proper agency licensing in all 50 states, plus Washington D.C. MADI readily
agreed and a partnership was created, which is alive and well today. The nationwide licensing is
a requirement unique to MADI’s business and provided a very lofty goal for PSGI. We are
nearing the attainment of this goal as we have obtained licensing in all states except for Utah
and New Mexico which are pending.
Government contracting has also been a goal for Protective Services Group and in 2007
PSGI was awarded its first government contract for security officers with SDDC at Scott Air
Force Base, Illinois. Our security officers had to meet rigid standards in the performance of this
contract and in the performance of their particular duties. The contract also required that PSGI
obtain a Secret Facility Clearance License to retain the contract and our secret clearance was
issued in September. In August, 2008, SDDC exercised it’s option to extend the contract with
PSGI, until March of 2009. In December 2008, the Army made the contract set aside for Service
Disabled Veteran Owned, which excluded PSGI from rebidding on the contract.

12. MAN-UP Promotions is a Mixed-Martial Arts Fighting company. PSGI works
closely with the State of Illinois to comply with the special regulations set forth for
this type of event. Our security officers on this detail provide crowd control and
security for the fighters, ticket booth, parking lot, dressing rooms and anywhere
identified by the owner.
We supply security officers to numerous construction sites, high profile
bodyguard services, local raceways/speedways and officers for internal/external
hotel security, due to the increasing criminal activity in Illinois and Missouri.
The security officers’ duties and responsibilities include, but are not limited to;
checking all facility/site restricted badges; gathering of evidence, protection of
personnel (bodyguards), allowing authorized personnel to enter and exit the areas.
The officers are responsible for monitoring personnel, paperwork, equipment and
information entering and exiting the facility/sites. The security officers are adept in
implementing policies and procedures and in adapting to new instructions. They
are well-equipped and capable of preventing and detecting any penetration against
facilities/sites, employees, visitors and proprietary information.
Individual support staff members are currently members of ASIS and are in the
process of obtaining ASIS International (American Society of Industrial Security)
certifications: CPP (Certified Protection Professional) and PCI (Professional
Certified Investigator).
