• 1Confirm the license covers this service. A license authorizes specific activities. Confirm the provider's covers fire watch services specifically — not just "security" in general.
• 2Ask who actually staffs the post. Some firms subcontract or staff through a partner. Ask who employs the officers on your site, and who carries the workers' comp.
• 3Get the certificate of insurance from the carrier. Request it naming you as certificate holder. An uninsured incident on your property becomes your liability.
• 4Pin down coverage and no-show terms. Written post orders, shift times, and what happens when an officer doesn't arrive — including who pays for the gap.
• 5Compare bill rate against the local range. Use the Yonkers range above. A quote well under market usually signals an underpaid post, which is where turnover and coverage gaps start.
• 6Check the contract's exit terms. Notice period, auto-renewal and any early-termination fee. Long lock-ins with no performance clause favor the provider, not you.
