Shela Borr, CALSAGA Ambassador Committee Co-Chair
The CALSAGA Ambassador Committee is honored to feature Black Knight Patrol (BKP) in this quarter’s spotlight, especially as the company celebrates its 10-year anniversary in the private security industry! Known for its innovative approach, transparency, and strong community presence, Black Knight Patrol continues to set a high standard for professionalism and leadership in security services across California.
Black Knight Patrol’s mission is rooted in providing safety and security through innovative technology and advanced training, with the goal of redefining excellence in private security. Their philosophy goes beyond traditional protection services, focusing instead on proactive solutions, accountability, and continuous improvement. This commitment has allowed BKP to adapt to increasingly complex security environments while maintaining trust with both clients and the communities they serve.
The organization is led by a highly experienced executive management team bringing together more than 80 combined years of industry experience (including a Regional Operations Manager with over 40 years in the field alone!). This depth of knowledge provides BKP with strong operational leadership, strategic foresight, and a practical understanding of the evolving demands placed on today’s security professionals.
Black Knight Patrol has been a proud CALSAGA member since 2019 and remains deeply engaged in advancing the association’s mission. CEO Manuel Jimenez is an active participant on the CALSAGA Ambassador Committee and currently also serves on the CALSAGA Board of Directors. His dedication to improving the private security industry through advocacy, education, and collaboration is widely recognized. From a personal perspective within the Ambassador Committee, Manny’s passion, leadership, and willingness to engage meaningfully with peers stands out. His commitment to bettering the industry is both genuine and impactful.
To the Black Knight Patrol team, CALSAGA represents accountability, integrity, and unity across the private security profession. The company values CALSAGA’s role in advocating for ethical operations, promoting professional standards, and fostering collaboration among security providers. This shared mission has helped BKP remain informed, connected, and prepared as the industry continues to evolve.
Looking ahead, Black Knight Patrol recognizes several ongoing challenges facing the industry, including workforce development, evolving regulations, rising operational demands, and increasingly complex security environments. Addressing these challenges requires more than individual effort, it requires a unified professional voice. Through CALSAGA membership, BKP is able to exchange best practices, stay informed on regulatory changes, and contribute to collective solutions that strengthen the industry while elevating professionalism statewide.
What truly sets Black Knight Patrol apart is its innovative mindset, dedication to community service, and transparent approach to operations, including its candid use of social media to educate, engage, and inform. Whether viewed as bold or unconventional, this transparency reflects BKP’s confidence in its values and its willingness to lead openly in a changing industry.
As Black Knight Patrol celebrates its 10th anniversary, the company stands as a strong example of what modern private security leadership can look like – innovative, engaged, ethical, and community-focused. CALSAGA is proud to highlight BKP and its continued commitment to advancing the private security profession.
