Unarmed mobile patrol · defined visits · clear records
For properties that need recurring visible visits rather than continuous on-site coverage, a mobile patrol plan defines where officers go, what they check, when they notify management, and how completed work is documented.
Management and the provider should agree on approved areas, coverage windows, visit patterns, priority checks, contacts, and escalation steps before service begins.
Post orders translate the service scope into field instructions. They should identify authorized duties, prohibited actions, access limits, reporting requirements, and who may approve a change.
When included in the approved plan and supported by the configured system, records may include arrival or checkpoint details, activity notes, exceptions, authorized photographs, incidents, and required notifications. The proposal should state exactly what will be delivered.
Mobile patrol documents defined visits; it does not imply continuous monitoring between visits. A standing post may fit a location that needs continuous presence, while checklist-based property checks may fit a narrower inspection assignment. A paid 90-day pilot may be considered for an approved scope.
A proposal should explain how the planned visits will be carried out and reviewed. Frequency, technology and notifications remain conditional on the approved assignment and configured system.
Questions property managers ask
Visit frequency and timing are property-specific and must be stated in the approved proposal and post orders; this page does not promise a standard interval.
No. Mobile patrol uses defined visits. Continuous on-site coverage requires a separately approved standing-post plan.
Verification may include configured arrival, checkpoint, activity, or photograph records when those methods are authorized, available, and written into the plan.
A coordinated route may be evaluated, but each property needs separate instructions and acceptance depends on staffing, travel time, insurance, and jurisdictional requirements.
