CSI has been privileged to leverage its collective experience serving the Jewish community over many years to identify gaps and develop concepts that lead to innovative solutions for your security needs.
Shabbos Link
In 2016, CSI launched “Shabbos Link,” an expanded communications capability of the One Voice System using a unique pager system to address the needs of our Shomer Shabbos community. The system is reserved only for those emergencies that can result in a loss of life and provides 24/7 emergency notifications to the Jewish community, while adhering to the rabbinical laws governing the Sabbath. Shabbos link pagers are currently installed in 50 synagogues around Los Angeles and are supported by the Rabbinical Council of California, Chabad West Coast, and other organizations.
Construction Consultations
CSI also offers expert construction consultations before, during, and after new construction or retrofitting made at your facility. CSI helps you avoid the pitfalls of failing to consider your security needs throughout your construction project. CSI can guide you, your institution’s board, and your project team through the process of ensuring your security considerations are built into the construction plans before breaking ground. To date, CSI has consulted on almost every major Jewish nonprofit construction project over the past 7 years!
Security Best Practices Meetings
The CSI Special Projects team addresses new and/or existing security concerns at Jewish institutions. We also focus on new security issues that may have emerged due to international and domestic incidents that affect the local Jewish community. The team studies these security issues and recommends security improvements that specifically apply to the client’s facility, which are developed off FEMA and ASIS International best practices. The CSI Special Projects team urges our clients to concentrate on People, Procedures, and Equipment to have a robust and successful security posture.
