Key Points
- Requires the Federal Protective Service to tighten oversight of contract guards at certain federal buildings managed by the government’s buildings agency.
- Sets rules for collecting and reviewing “secret test” results, including tracking why failures happen and spotting repeat problems across facilities.
- Pushes contractors to give targeted retraining and performance plans when a guard fails a test, and updates training based on new threats and lessons learned.
- Orders a review of the guard shift tracking system, with a plan to fix or replace it and to quickly alert building tenants about staffing gaps.
- Makes clear contract guards are still not federal employees, even with these new oversight and tracking rules.
