Questions we actually get

Before you call

Is this the same as the online risk assessment?

No. The online assessment is a self-guided interview that gives you a score and a read in minutes. The RVTA is a licensed agency walking your property, reading your threat picture and writing it up. Start with the online one if you want to know whether you need the full one.

Will you just recommend more officers?

Sometimes the finding is fewer. The report ranks exposure and the plan matches the fix to it: lighting, locks and a policy change come before headcount when they solve the problem. If you buy officers from us afterward, it is because the plan says so, and you will be able to read why.

Who does the walk?

Agency management, not a patrol officer. The report is signed by the person who walked the site.

Can I give the report to my insurer?

That is one of the reasons to have it. It is written as a document a carrier, a board or a contractor can act on without us in the room.
