We established Wisconsin Police Agency in 2017 to deliver structured, prevention-focused private policing across Madison and Wisconsin. Our leadership team and officers bring over 20 years of combined experience in security operations, investigations, and public-facing safety roles. We operate on a disciplined framework that prioritizes preparation, visibility, and accountability so clients receive professional private policing support that complements, rather than replaces, public resources and aligns with property, corporate, and community expectations.
Our leadership team directs operations through clear standards, written procedures, and constant oversight of field activity. We deploy licensed officers, never informal guards, and we require consistent reporting, incident documentation, and communication with client contacts. This approach reduces uncertainty for property managers, HOAs, and corporate stakeholders, who can rely on traceable records and predictable performance. Every assignment is reviewed against defined objectives so service delivery remains aligned with risk profiles, site policies, and contractual expectations.
Our officers, investigators, and dispatch staff operate as a single, coordinated team focused on prevention and client support. Field personnel conduct patrols, checks, and community interactions while our 24-hour dispatch manages calls, alarm activations, and information flow. This structure helps ensure that observations, concerns, and incidents move quickly between patrol, supervision, and client representatives. The result is a consistent private policing presence that supports safer residential communities, commercial properties, and corporate environments throughout Wisconsin.
We act transparently, document our work, and adhere strictly to legal requirements.
We deploy trained, licensed officers who follow defined operational standards.
We maintain clear reporting, supervision, and review for every assignment.
Wisconsin Police Agency (WPA) is a full service detective agency; with over 20 years industry experience. Our service range expands across the Midwestern region of the country; with our diverse network of clients consisting primarily of residential communities, small businesses and corporate entities.

WPA understands that exceptional service can only be provided when officers, vehicle fleet and equipment aid in meeting the high standards set fourth by our organizations leadership. Our team of officers is comprised of both active, and inactive, military personnel; with many also being retired law enforcement officers. WPA is further strengthened by its skillfully-trained and insured K-9 officers. Each of our officers are equipped with the latest technology when serving clients. Body camera's, pepper-spray, voltage regulated tasers and firearms are among the equipment our trained officers are equipped with while on patrol.
Our vehicle fleet is comprised of late model cars and SUV's; that are equipped with state of the art computer technology; and dash patrol cameras with audio and video capture functions. With our fleet containing both marked and unmarked vehicles, WPA officers are able to patrol as noticeably or discreetly as necessary. For large attendance events, or environments not suited for vehicle patrol, WPA also has bikes as part of its fleet to keep service appropriate and efficient. With a variety of fleet and equipment options, our officers always ensure exceptional service quality remains consistent in any situation.
WPA's operations are fueled by our belief that “success in the security and private policing industry is the direct extension of effective preventative measures being implemented consistently”. Since inception, our commitment has been to ensure the initial security and policing needs of our clients are met; while positioning them for maximum safety and peace of mind in the future. In order to achieve this, WPA is consistently expanding its knowledge of modern-day safety vulnerabilities; and developing procedures, personnel training programs and services that help ensure our approach to providing exceptional service is always effective and efficient.
We understand the businesses and organizations of our clients are poised for growth; and therefore it's WPA's responsibility to aid in maintaining smooth transitions from one day of operations to the next. Therefore, we conduct regular assessments of every client account; along with the services our agency provides in relation to fulfilling their specific needs. We're always sure to provide clients with account status and vulnerability updates; well beyond the general occurrence reports issued by other agencies. Meeting future needs implies the importance of maintaining a watchful eye, discerning perspective and exercising appropriate action to limit and/or eliminate specific risks of tomorrow. WPA's doing so ultimately reflects our unwavering commitment to clients and the fulfillment of their needs well beyond today.
In today's society, selecting the right security/policing agency to deter crime, and ensure safety, is an increasingly vital decision to make. The public's sense of security and safety is being challenged daily; which magnifies the importance of a security firm being equipped to appropriately handle situations as they arise. More importantly, both the agency and its clients benefit from the consistent implementation of preventative measures; which assist in lowering and/or eradicating the potential and/or existing vulnerabilities of the client and their assets. The Wisconsin Private Police Agency understands that security and policing is about more than providing clients with a physical presence; but about being adequately trained and prepared for potential happenings within any service environment. Our vast industry knowledge and experience ensures we're able to exceed the expectations of most clients; regardless of their size and service needs. Ultimately, this not only reinforces that WPA is the right choice for security and private policing; but the best choice by way of our proven results.
