Security Services
Built around guard payroll and slower-paying contracts.
Guard payroll runs on a fixed schedule. Commercial and government contracts often pay on net-30 terms or longer. Truidian helps security companies line up the providers built around that gap.
The realities
What makes security services different.
Guards are paid regularly; contracts pay on terms.
Payroll for guard staff runs on a fixed schedule, while commercial and government contracts often pay on net-30 or longer terms.
Labor is the dominant cost.
Wages, overtime and benefits for a large hourly workforce typically represent the largest and most recurring expense in the business.
Government contracts move slowly.
Municipal, school and government security contracts often involve longer payment cycles and more documentation than private commercial work.
Licensing and bonding are ongoing costs.
State licensing, guard card renewals and bonding requirements vary by jurisdiction and add recurring compliance overhead.
Equipment ranges from vehicles to technology.
Patrol vehicles, radios, surveillance and access-control equipment all represent capital needs beyond payroll.
Scheduling complexity scales with sites.
Multiple client sites, shift coverage and post orders create operational demands that grow with every new contract.

FAQ
Common questions from security companies.
Is Truidian a security company?
No. Truidian is a business solutions company. Truidian helps security services companies identify and connect with third-party funding, factoring, equipment and insurance providers.
Can Truidian help with slow-paying government contracts?
Truidian can help identify participating providers whose factoring or working-capital programs are built around longer government payment cycles. Eligibility depends on the contract and the provider’s criteria.
Can Truidian help finance patrol vehicles or equipment?
Yes. Truidian can help identify participating equipment financing providers for vehicles, surveillance and related technology.
How long does it take to get paid on a government security contract?
Government and municipal contracts commonly pay on net-30 to net-90 terms or longer, depending on the agency’s invoicing and approval process. Factoring and working-capital programs are often used to bridge that gap.
Can a new security company get bonded or financed?
It depends on the provider. Bonding capacity and financing eligibility are typically evaluated on licensing status, contract history and ownership credit, so terms for newer companies vary by provider.
What does it cost to work with Truidian?
Truidian may receive compensation from participating providers. If any fee would be payable directly by your business, it will be disclosed before you engage.
