Approved Security Vendors
The University of Alabama has reviewed the use of security services on UA property. An approved security vendor list has been developed to provide student organizations, departments and others with a list of event security firms that are licensed by the Alabama Security Regulatory Board and meet other requirements.
Only security vendors on this approved list may provide security services on UA owned or leased property. Off-campus events funded in whole or in part by UA must also use an approved security vendor. Exceptions include: (1) security services provided by a commissioned law enforcement officer, (2) a person performing security duties under a direct employment arrangement, (3) security provided off-campus by a venue and (4) security that has been subject to a UA bid and award process.
The approved security vendor list can be found by following the link below. Please note that the approved security vendors on this list are not contract vendors through the UA Purchasing Department. If the security vendor will be providing services other than event security services to a UA department using Chart A funds, please contact the UA Purchasing Department for guidance. Security vendors who wish to register for inclusion on the approved security vendor list should contact Wade Bond, Director of Risk Management via email: lwbond@ua.edu.
