Steps of the free 15-minute needs assessment call with Greg Schneider

Planning around a grant deadline

Many requests come from synagogues, churches and schools applying for the FEMA Nonprofit Security Grant. Every application needs a vulnerability assessment, and states set their deadlines earlier than FEMA does, so book the site visit early. FEMA explains the program on its Nonprofit Security Grant Program page, and the free grant readiness checklist shows what to gather first.

Security assessment questions

How long is the needs assessment call?

15 minutes, and it is free. Greg learns what you are protecting and what worries you most, and tells you the right next step.

Where does Greg work?

Battle Tested Solutions is based in Santa Clara, California. Greg does on-site assessments anywhere in the United States, and work abroad.

Who reads my request?

Greg Schneider reads every request himself. It does not go to a call center.

How fast will Greg reply?

Within 24 hours. If you face an urgent threat, say so in your message: Greg offers same-day response for urgent situations.

How soon can Greg start?

The start date is set on the first call. It depends on the scope of your site and on the projects Greg already has booked.

What training does Greg offer?

In-person security awareness seminars and active shooter training. Greg is an A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Survival Instructor and a certified Krav Maga trainer.

Can Greg speak at our event?

Yes. Greg speaks to congregations, boards and conferences. Contact Greg for speaking fees.

Are prices listed on the site?

No. Fees depend on the size and scope of the work, so Greg discusses them with you once he understands what you need.

Which services can I ask Greg about?

Battle Tested Solutions has three divisions. Security consulting covers comprehensive risk assessments, physical security surveys and house of worship security. Corporate intelligence services help small and medium sized companies build their own intelligence collection and analysis process, with protective intelligence, industrial espionage prevention and travel risk security. Tactical response training covers active shooter training, emergency response planning, Krav Maga and anti-kidnap.

What is the difference between a risk assessment and a physical security survey?

A comprehensive risk assessment looks at everything: hiring and firing processes, policies, procedures and security officer capabilities. A physical security survey is narrower in scope and covers one site, or every site for a company with several physical locations.

Does Greg provide bodyguards or security guards?

No. Greg supports executive protection operations with planning: advance work, route and site surveys and travel risk programs. He does not supply close protection agents or residential guards.

Does Greg help nonprofits applying for the security grant?

Yes. Every FEMA Nonprofit Security Grant application needs a vulnerability assessment, and Greg does that assessment for synagogues, churches and schools. States set their deadlines earlier than FEMA does, so book the site visit early and use the free grant readiness checklist to gather what you need first.

What should I put in my message?

What you are protecting, what worries you most, and any deadline, such as a grant application or a holiday, so Greg can schedule the site visit in time.
