Our design portfolio includes a diverse range of project types and sizes. These include public safety facilities, judicial centers, public transit systems, minimum / medium / maximum security correctional facilities, minimum / medium / maximum detention facilities, military headquarters, military joint operations centers and command and control centers. In our time in the security design industry, we have assessed, designed and managed the construction of these, and other facility types for local, state, federal and government agencies, both foreign and domestic. We have been and are an intricate design component in projects involving courthouses, police administration facilities, emergency operation centers and all levels of security for correction and detention facilities. The following are some of our most recent highlighted projects SDC has completed or is working on.
