OAK RIDGE, Tenn., March 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- National Strategic Protective Services, LLC (NSPS), a joint venture of Triple Canopy, Inc. and Securiguard, Inc., is pleased to announce that it has successfully taken over as the provider of protective force services at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge, Tenn. facilities.

"NSPS has assembled a highly qualified team, and we look forward to working with them as they manage the protective force operations on the Oak Ridge Reservation."
"The NSPS team is honored to provide protective force services to the DOE Oak Ridge Office. The fact that 100 percent of the incumbent protective force has joined NSPS is very satisfying and helped facilitate a seamless transition," said Greg McDowell, general manager at NSPS. "We look forward to leveraging our leadership team's industry knowledge and decades of management experience to ensure the highest quality protective force services at the Oak Ridge facilities."
