Hotels are assigned a dedicated GSA trained and qualified assessor who is independently qualified to deliver SFJ Awards’ certification standards and drawn from the global network of experienced former law enforcement or military professionals. In collaboration with the hotel, the assessor will manage the hotel through the process to accreditation or provide a remedial plan to be implemented. Successful hotels receive an SFJ Awards certificate and a detailed Accreditation Report, demonstrating the hotel’s commitment to the highest levels of security and guest safety.
