Rapid Security and Infrastructure Support Port-au-Prince, Haiti

Civil unrest in Port-au-Prince created an urgent requirement for a safe, fully operational base to support U.S. Government activity and international security units. Speed, visibility, and the ability to stand up operations under pressure were critical. 

Within 10 days of notification, our team deployed 200 personnel to secure the airport and construct a 2,000-person life-support and logistics camp. Reinforced perimeters, controlled entry points, surveillance towers, and utilities were all delivered under strict oversight and compliance review, on time and without incident.

Outcome:

  • Fully operational within two weeks of deployment

  • Enabled stand-up of multinational operations without U.S. military presence

  • Zero security incidents since activation

  • 100% operational uptime maintained throughout

  • Commended by the client for professionalism, transparency, and execution under pressure

The speed and quality of delivery reflected something no new entrant could replicate: an established regional footprint, trusted local relationships, and a team that had operated in comparable environments before.
