Built on Honesty & Integrity

At Integrity Consulting & Investigations, our mission is to set the standard for professional protective services across the Midwest. We were built on honesty and integrity — the conviction that real security is earned through preparation, discipline, and trust, never simply a uniform on site. We partner with every client to assess their threat landscape, mitigate risk before it materializes, and safeguard their people, assets, and reputation. Every ICI officer is vetted, continually trained, and held accountable to that standard — so the organizations we serve can operate with confidence and resilience.

01
Integrity

Honesty and ethical conduct guide every decision, on every assignment — whether or not anyone is watching. It is the foundation our name is built on.

02
Proactive Protection

We identify and mitigate risk before it escalates, pairing visible deterrence and situational awareness with sound, decisive response.

03
Accountability

We hold a duty of care to every client — documenting, communicating, and answering for every outcome to professional standards.

Security Services

Executive Protection

Close protection for executives, VIPs, and high-profile principals. Every assignment begins with advance site surveys, threat assessment, and route planning — long before your principal enters the room. ICI personnel operate with the discretion and professionalism appropriate to C-suite environments.

Event Security

From corporate functions and private gatherings to large-scale public events — ICI provides coordinated crowd management, credentialed access control, bag check protocols, and rapid incident response. All event deployments comply with applicable DHS Event Security guidelines ↗ and local municipal requirements across Michigan, Ohio, and Kentucky.

Patrol Services

Mobile vehicle patrols and stationary post assignments providing consistent, visible deterrence around the clock. Available 24/7/365 for residential communities, commercial campuses, warehouses, and industrial properties throughout the Midwest.

Corporate Security

Comprehensive workplace security programs including access control management, visitor screening, workplace violence prevention planning, and internal threat mitigation. ICI tailors all corporate programs to your organization's existing HR and legal policies.

Armed & Unarmed Officers

Armed or unarmed deployment calibrated to your threat level, site risk profile, and compliance requirements. All armed officers are qualified and experienced in their assigned roles. All ICI personnel are insured and bonded.

Security Consulting

ICI conducts a structured security gap analysis of your current posture — reviewing physical access controls, personnel protocols, incident reporting systems, and policy documentation. Deliverables include a written assessment and prioritized recommendations grounded in real operational experience, not generic templates.

Protection Built on Real Experience

Most security firms deploy uniformed contractors. ICI deploys professionally trained officers developed under a pipeline most firms cannot replicate — PI-developed investigative protocols, direct law enforcement methodology, and the discipline of prior U.S. military service. That combination produces a measurably different outcome: personnel who recognize threats before they materialize, respond under pressure with sound judgment, and document every incident to professional evidentiary standards.

01
PI-DevelopedProtocols

ICI personnel operate under investigation-grade frameworks — structured threat assessment, behavioral surveillance, and pre-incident pattern recognition. These are not textbook protocols. They are methodologies refined through real casework by licensed private investigators.

Law EnforcementMentorship

ICI personnel are directly mentored by current and former law enforcement professionals, applying use-of-force judgment, crisis response standards, and situational awareness frameworks consistent with POST-certified training. This mentorship is reinforced by IAHSS guidelines for security workforce development ↗.

MilitaryService Background

Prior U.S. military service forms the professional foundation of every ICI officer — instilling the situational awareness, command presence, and composure under pressure that distinguish exceptional security professionals. Veterans bring a readiness posture, chain-of-command discipline, and mission focus that translate directly into high-stakes civilian security environments. Per DOL VETS research ↗, military-trained personnel demonstrate significantly lower rates of misconduct and higher performance consistency in protective roles.

Why professionally trained security personnel matter BLS CFOI data ↗ recorded 740 fatal workplace violent acts in 2023, while BLS SOII data counted 57,610 nonfatal workplace-violence cases requiring days away from work, job restriction, or transfer over the 2021–2022 period. Workplace violence now ranks as the third leading cause of fatal occupational injury in the U.S. — underscoring the critical need for professionally trained security personnel.
