Advisory Services
ICoCA supports organisations across sectors and regions to identify and manage human rights risks associated with private security. Our services help clients build more responsible and resilient security supply chains.
Responsible Security Provider Assessment (RSPA)
The RSPA is a ready-to-use, full value chain assessment of your private security providers (PSPs). Drawing on a decade of experience and ICoCA’s in-house expertise, it assesses providers against 550+ indicators, weighted to local context, and provides clear, comparable insights across your security supply chain. Whether you work with a handful or hundreds of PSPs, the RSPA is a cost-effective, scalable due diligence solution that helps identify risks and meet emerging regulatory requirements.
Security Provider Procurement Assessment
The procurement assessment provides procurement teams with an efficient and effective way to screen the human rights risks of security providers bidding for new contracts. Drawing on a decade of experience and in-house expertise assessing hundreds of private security companies, the procurement assessment provides a clear scorecard for each provider, based on ICoCA’s 550+ indicators, weighted to local context, with comparative insights across all bidders.
Procurement Guidance
ICoCA advises clients on how to ensure effective and efficient procurement processes. This includes review and recommendations of key documentation, including tenders and contracts. By guiding clients on responsible procurement practices, we help reduce their exposure to financial, legal and reputational risks.
Responsible Security Training Hub
Developed over five years, ICoCA’s Responsible Security Training Hub offers online, scenario based training modules in multiple languages. Designed primarily for security personnel, including frontline officers, managers and trainers, the training is also relevant to HSE teams, site managers and other staff. The Hub can be tailored to client needs, including a company branded platform, with administrator access to track participation, course completion and results, and generate aggregated data for efficient reporting.
Site-based Human Rights Impact Assessments
ICoCA conducts site visits and Human Rights Impact Assessments tailored to client needs, assessing the potential impacts of contracted private security on workers, communities and other stakeholders. Our site-based due diligence assessments provide investors and developers with expert insights and practical recommendations to identify and mitigate human rights risks associated with security providers at specific sites.
ESG & Human Rights Due Diligence Compliance
ICoCA works with clients to help ensure their private security supply chains meet growing human rights due diligence and ESG requirements. We also support investors in promoting responsible business conduct and human rights across their portfolios. Our ESG Investor Guide and ESG Ratings Methodology provide practical, step by step guidance to help investors, ratings agencies and private security users identify and mitigate human rights risks associated with private security.
