SAIF was established to achieve 3 dimensions: the urgent need for some security sectors, those to which the private sector does not contribute, and the reinforcing of the role of privatization, i.e., the conversion of some private enterprises. SAIF will focus on 4 key points: Security consultancy because any security work begins with a good risk assessment, then we move on to the integration that will occur from an operational or technical aspect through the command-and-control rooms to respond and monitor any event. 3rd point is internationally approved training and development, and finally security solutions, part of which is present in the market, and we will seek to develop the remaining part, not only providing the service, but also supporting the owners of current companies to contribute by providing them with a supporting layer in this sector.​

The company will contribute to empowering other security companies by transforming private security in KSA and transforming it into an attractive profession by developing clear advantages and career paths, and providing training and qualification opportunities for Saudis through private security companies operating in KSA, Thus, developing the security services sector in KSA by providing professional security training services in accordance with the latest international standards through establishing a center of excellence and security training academies that meet the requirements of the various security guard cadres working in the private sector in KSA.​

There is a so-called security sense among security staff, and the technology will promote so-called situational awareness, for example, there will be monitoring devices, assessment devices, documentation and reporting devices, and this will reinforce security. In the past, the employee in charge to monitor the screens, but now there is no need ​for that, as he will be able to monitor more than one enterprise through the monitoring system, which will send a message to the room operator in the control to draw his attention that there is something wrong, now we are talking about the human cadre, but in the future, we will talk about specialists in IT and digitization working in the security sector.​

​

We are working on ensuring that this goal is achieved by adhering to a number of elements, 1st: the selection of our employees carefully according to the highest security standards. The recruitment process goes through setting high standards in proportion to the requirements of clients, and through the stages of behavior and appearance tests and personal interviews, then security survey and medical examination.

Followed by the training of our staff at the best security institutes, where our employees are given intensive training.

The company implements programs to ensure continuity and accumulation of knowledge for security officials, including taking care for employees so that they can look after the client with less supervision by the client, clear professional paths for them, social and medical insurance, approved and ongoing training, and rewarding compensation.

The standards also include ensuring the high readiness of any security emergency, as security services measure their effectiveness during emergencies, and staff are periodically assessed at duty of field tours to take client opinions, ensuring that the standards of services provided are continuously raised, and our staff are provided with the required procedures and standards to ensure their readiness and responsiveness.

 

The standards also include a high readiness to use modern technologies, as "SAEF" invests in employing technology and providing its employees with smart devices linked to employee management programs, which ensures monthly performance reports that allow knowing when and where the employee is at all working hours.​
