A small, hand-picked group of early practitioners.
Before IPSRM™ goes any wider, a limited founding cohort gets it first — on founder terms, with Stephen directly.

Three decades of assessment work, made repeatable.
IPSRM™ is a structured methodology for physical security assessment, built from more than thirty years and 600+ assessments across the UK, Europe and Africa. Every assessment runs through the same six-domain architecture — threat context, adversarial pathways, structural protection, operational control, control lifecycle, and systemic dependency — so two competent practitioners reach the same conclusion from the same evidence.

A note on automation: the System's Export/Populate automation runs on Windows — native, or via Boot Camp/VM. That's an Apple limitation on the underlying technology, not something we've held back at any price. Every document works fully, and can be completed entirely by hand, on Mac and iPad too.
Eight weeks, one real assessment.
An eight-week window
The programme runs for eight weeks from your start date, with a check-in around week four to see how the assessment's going.
One completed assessment
Completion means running a real assessment through the System and giving genuine, completed feedback at the end — not simply having purchased.
A certificate either way
Your Founder Practitioner Certificate is issued when you join, recognising your place in this founding cohort — regardless of completion.
Direct, personal support
This is a small, hand-picked group — any question goes straight to Stephen at stephen@ipsrm.org, not a general enquiries queue.
“Six hundred-odd assessments across three decades, and I kept running into the same gap — two competent practitioners, same site, same evidence, different conclusions.”
