Problems with Security at Federal Buildings Continue, GAO Report Finds
Guy James, President of the Federal Contract Guards of America FCGOA said he agrees with FPS Director Gary Schenkel who said, "While we believe we can effectively secure federal buildings with the current mix of highly trained federal staff and contract guards, the GEO report confirms what he has been saying all along. "Until we address the lack of funding, understaffing problems, certification requirements, and the failure to set a uniformed higher level of training requirements for both federal protective service contract companies and guards, you will continue to have problems protecting these federal facilities against a terrorist or criminal attack".
