Whether you manage a single commercial facility in Riyadh or operate multi-site industrial properties across the Kingdom, Qimah Security Guards offers transparent, professionally managed security guard packages designed to match your operational scale, budget, and compliance requirements — with no hidden costs and no compromises on service quality.
Pricing is driven by four variables. Any provider who quotes before knowing all four is guessing — and a quote built on a guess is the most common reason security contracts fail in their first quarter.
A single around-the-clock post is not one guard. It is approximately 4.2 guards once shift rotation, weekly rest days, annual leave, public holidays and sickness cover are properly accounted for. This single factor explains most of the price variation between providers. A quote priced on three guards for a 24/7 post will look attractive and will break within weeks, leaving gaps in your cover.
A standard unarmed officer, a supervisor-grade officer, an HSE-certified industrial officer, female security officers and a close-protection trained officer each carry a different rate. Matching the grade to the actual requirement — rather than over-specifying across the board — is usually where real savings are found.
Remote industrial sites, HCIS-regulated industrial and energy facilities and locations requiring specialist clearance or additional vetting cost more to staff than a commercial reception post in a city centre.
Event and short-term deployments carry a premium over rolling twelve-month contracts, because recruitment, vetting, induction and site training are absorbed over a shorter period.
There is a real difference between cutting cost and cutting corners. These four approaches reduce spend without creating exposure:
Post consolidation. Many sites carry posts that were justified by a layout or a risk that no longer exists. A post-by-post review often removes one or two positions without weakening cover.
Static and patrol hybrids. Full static cover overnight is frequently more than the actual risk requires. Replacing an an overnight static post with scheduled mobile patrol visits can reduce cost substantially on lower-risk sites.
Right-sizing guard grade. Paying supervisor rates for routine reception cover is a common and avoidable overspend.
Longer contract terms. Twelve-month commitments price better than rolling short terms, because recruitment and induction costs amortise over a longer period.
What does not work: cutting the guard count on a 24/7 post below the level shift rotation requires, or engaging an unlicensed provider on price. Both create larger costs than they save.
