Unarmed Security Guards & Officers in Indianapolis, IN

Most security work in Indianapolis is a presence problem, not a force problem. The Indiana Convention Center and Lucas Oil Stadium connect by enclosed skywalk to a dozen downtown hotels, and the conventions that fill them — Gen Con, FFA, NCAA championship weekends — need officers who can direct a confused crowd, check a badge, and radio a supervisor without escalating anything. The same is true across the Mile Square's Class A office lobbies, the apartment towers rising along Mass Ave and at Bottleworks, the construction fencing around 16 Tech, and the hospital campuses at IU Health Methodist, Riley, and Eskenazi. Unarmed officers cost meaningfully less per hour than armed coverage, scale up and down by shift, and handle the overwhelming majority of what an Indianapolis property actually encounters. Calvis matches you with licensed Indiana agencies whose officers are trained in de-escalation and daily written reporting.

Indiana licenses security guard agencies through the Indiana Private Investigator and Security Guard Licensing Board but does not issue a license to the individual unarmed officer, so training standards vary widely between companies. For lobby, retail, and construction posts where the officer is the first person a visitor speaks to, that variance shows up fast in guest experience and incident reports. Calvis only partners with agencies holding a current Indiana board license, and every officer placed is background-checked before the first shift.
