Is your district ready for it’s next school safety & security audit?

Dr Q is an authorized auditor through TxSSC and has completed over 70 site visits in the last 3-year cycle.  There are 5 main reasons to consider using Dr Q for your next audit: 

1. Objective and Unbiased Evaluation

• Dr Q brings a fresh perspective and unbiased evaluation, free from internal biases and conflicts of interest.

• This objectivity ensures a more accurate assessment of the school’s safety measures, uncovering potential blind spots that might be overlooked internally.

2. Expertise and Specialized Knowledge

• As an external expert in safety and security audits, Dr Q brings specialized knowledge and experience saving you time, money, and frustration. 

• His expertise allows for a comprehensive audit, including safety “best practices,” current security legal updates, and potential vulnerabilities specific to instructional and non-instructional environments. 

3. Benchmarking Against Industry Standards

• Dr Q is well-versed in the current safety standards and legal regulations related to school safety.

• By hiring Dr Q, the district ensures that its safety and security measures are benchmarked against TxSSC’s latest standards per the Texas legislature, helping to identify areas for improvement and compliance gaps.  

4. Confidentiality and Trust

• Dr Q provides a level of confidentiality that may be challenging to maintain internally.  

• This fosters trust among staff, students, and parents, as they know the audit is conducted independently, ensuring their concerns and issues are handled with discretion and professionalism.

5. Expertise and Specialized Knowledge

• With an external perspective, Dr Q can offer customized recommendations tailored to the specific needs and challenges of the district. 

• Dr Q’s objective assessment enables him to provide targeted solutions, addressing weaknesses and enhancing the overall safety and security of the facilities.  

What makes Dr Q unique from other safety & security auditors? Dr Q provides the district three items once an audit is complete:

1. Since about half the audit is considered “non-observable,” Dr Q took those audit items and placed them into Google survey questions for various staff members to answer. This saves everyone time from having to be interviewed by the auditor. Instead, staff members complete the survey when it is convenient for them. More importantly, Google automatically collects those answers and creates data (in the form of pie charts) needed to make informed decisions to resolve audit concerns. 

2. Each facility is audited with the appropriate TxSSC spreadsheet, which includes all 534 checklist items for each instructional facility. 

3. Each principal (instructional) or director (non-instructional) will receive a slideshow of pictures and captions showing evidence of both compliance and non-compliance checklist items on the survey.
