1. Company Organization
Metro Security Express (MSE)
began to operate in Rome and
surroundings in 1979 as a
Limited Liability Company and
has always represented a
landmark
for
all
Credit
Institutions in Rome for its
transport and safe valuables
services, due to its armoured
vault, recognized at the time,
as the most modern, safe and
functional of the 80’s.
Today,
after
having
abandoned the transport and
safe valuables services, thanks to the strong corporate structure and its highly
qualified staff MSE increased its reputation in the area of security, fiduciary services
and the control of entertainment and show activities to such an extent that it numbers
among its clients important public and private companies, as well as a large number
of traders.
Due to the high and specific professionalism of its management, MSE has recently
obtained an extension of its license to operate with its-own security guards on board
of merchant vessels flying the Italian flag transiting in international waters at piracy
risk employing qualified and professionally trained staff, that has served in the
"special forces" of the Italian army and has been in command on mission abroad in
hostile areas for long periods.
Thanks to the work done over the years with the utmost seriousness and
professionalism, the Company received a great number of letters of commendation
from both clients and Police Authorities. Furthermore thanks to the close attention
paid to its duties, the Company has achieved the quality certifications released by
the LLOID 'S REGISTER QUALITY ASSURANCE, in compliance with the UNI EN
ISO 9001:2008 and UNI 10891:2000, the last one is specific for the Security
Companies.

These international awards are connected to the completion of a process aimed at
obtaining the maximum customer satisfaction as a proof of the high quality standards
required for the activity .
The Institute has a staff of approx. 40 armed security guards provided of fire arms
licence and decree, these include non-commissioned officers and security guards,
executing the security services, and approx. 15 unarmed security operational units
assigned to the fiduciary services. In order to develop its activities in the most
appropriate way the Company created an operational structure permitting a rational
completion of the local services such as occasional or scheduled inspections and
care of keys, offering at the same time the guarantee of a steady support to the fixed
watching services.
The coordination of all
activities is ensured by
a
Control
Centre
connected with the
Operations Centre of
the State Police and
the
Carabinieri
operating 24 hours a
day all year around
and
is
constantly
managed by operators skilled in computer media.
The Operating Room is responsible for all radio communications with the security
guards on outdoor duty.
