Peeler Group International

What Peeler Group International does

Peeler Group International is a privately held, boutique executive protection and investigation firm founded in 1995 by Bill Peeler, who continues to serve as President and CEO. The company provides close personal protection, protective intelligence, investigations, residential security, secure transportation, event security, crisis response, GSOC monitoring, employment screening, risk and security consulting, training, and medical support. Its clients include corporate executives, high-net-worth individuals and families, entertainers and public figures, government and religious leaders, Fortune 500 companies, entertainment and sports organizations, and affluent residential communities.

The firm operates a services-led, intelligence-driven model with three proprietary frameworks that anchor its delivery: the Risk Threat Vulnerability Assessment (RTVA) methodology for threat and vulnerability analysis; the Global Security Operations Center (GSOC), a 24/7 operations hub providing GSM and satellite tracking, CCTV monitoring, and travel monitoring; and the Constant Observation & Patrol Solution (C.O.P.S.), a residential and community monitoring product. Personnel are central to the offering — investigators average over 25 years of experience, and engagement is delivered through dedicated teams that can be permanent, part-time, embedded, or per diem. PGI holds licensed agency credentials across six U.S. states (Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Maine, Nevada, New York) and supplements its U.S. footprint with managed international partner offices providing coverage on all seven continents.

Commercially, PGI runs a relationship-based, consultative sales motion targeting enterprise and high-net-worth buyers, supported by thought-leadership content (PGI Protective Intelligence Briefs), email newsletters, social media, conference participation (ATAP, IPSB, OSAC), and a co-developed training platform (Synergistic Protection Training / Fusion Training Center). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with engagement economics observed in job postings (full-time EP drivers at $75K–$85K annual salary, per diem EP drivers at $30–$40+/hr). The company is founder-owned with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company, and revenue is not publicly reported.

• Gavin de Becker & Associates: Premier boutique executive protection and threat assessment firm serving high-net-worth individuals, celebrities, and executives. Highly comparable to PGI given its intelligence-led methodology (MOSAIC), HNW client focus, and similar boutique scale.

• Andrews International (now part of G4S / Allied Universal): Large executive protection and uniformed security firm explicitly referenced by a PGI client testimonial. Comparable on close personal protection and EP driver services, though at significantly larger scale following consolidation into G4S.
