Huffmaster Crisis Response is partnering with Elite Fire Safety, a division of Sciens Building Solutions, for nationwide remote monitoring services using advanced mobile security camera trailers.
As part of the collaboration, Huffmaster will deploy Elite Fire Safety’s new Remote Tactical Surveillance Units (RTSUs) across the United States. These advanced trailers, equipped with the latest surveillance technology, will transmit live feeds to Huffmaster's VirSec Operation Center. VirSec personnel will monitor camera feeds 24/7 for rapid response to detected suspicious activity.
Huffmaster will also provide remote monitoring services for permanent camera locations installed or serviced by Elite Fire Safety’s security division. This comprehensive monitoring approach ensures continuous asset and facility protection, leveraging AI-driven analytics and human oversight, according to an announcement.

“With each new partner, we expand the reach of our VirSec Operation Center, enhancing visibility and driving future business. This collaboration also paved the way for expanding our VirSec Operation Center with additional workstations and an increased headcount,” stated Scott Gane, president and chief security officer, Huffmaster Protective Services Group. “Moreover, it allows us to extend our services to states where Huffmaster does not operate. Given Sciens Building Solutions 27 corporate locations, we can help unify their security solutions nationwide and extend our expertise to their extensive portfolio of clients.”
Sciens Building Solutions acquired Novi, Michigan-based Elite Fire Safety in 2022. Ryan Okerstrom, vice president of operations, Huffmaster, said integrating Elite’s innovative mobile security camera trailers with the VirSec Operation Center represents a significant advancement in providing proactive, real-time security monitoring.
“This partnership underscores our commitment to delivering the highest security solutions to our clients,” Okerstrom added.
Huffmaster bills itself as the nation’s first single-source strike services agency. Based in Clawson, Mich., the company has developed a comprehensive range of services, including contingency planning, replacement personnel and security solutions to ensure business continuity. Huffmaster’s clients include Fortune 500 companies and small to mid-sized businesses across a range of vertical markets.
