RFP: Crossing Guard Services
4305 Santa Fe Ave., Vernon, CA 90058
Dear Captain,
On behalf of All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), I would like to express our sincere appreciation for the potential opportunity to continue to serve the City of Vernon. We are proud to have served the City of Vernon for the past thirty-three (33) years.
We have received the Request for Proposal, and I have reviewed the Scope of Services and Services Agreement. We agree with the terms and conditions set forth.
ACMS is uniquely positioned to meet and exceed the requirements of the City of Vernon Request for Proposal for Crossing Guard Services. The City requires trained personnel, daily supervision, reliable staffing, immediate replacement capabilities, strict compliance with state safety laws, and consistent communication with designated schools. ACMS' model directly aligns with these needs through its comprehensive recruitment, training, and field-management systems.
Our approach centers on three pillars: Safety, Staffing Reliability, and Operational Accountability. ACMS assumes full responsibility for recruitment, Department of Justice-compliant background checks, fingerprinting, functional capacity evaluations, and ongoing employee training using industry-leading curriculum and field-based coaching. Each guard receives standardized equipment including ANSI-compliant apparel, MUTCD stop paddles, and safety gear ensuring visibility and compliance with state requirements.
ACMS will continue to assume complete responsibility for the City program, this includes recruitment, background clearance, hiring, training, equipment, payroll, supervision, and management of the program. ACMS is 100% minority owned and does not outsource any part of our service. We are certainly excited about the possibility of providing Crossing Guard Services for the City of Vernon. This proposal shall remain valid for a period of not less than ninety (90) days from the date of submittal.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 800 540-9290 -Sincerely

2.0 Introduction
ACMS ALL CITY MANAGEMENT SERVICES
COMPANY PROFILE
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS), is a California based Corporation founded in 1985.
We are the largest provider of School Crossing Guard services, managing both large and small Crossing Guard Programs. We currently have over 9,000 employees dedicated to safety, serving cities, towns, communities, schools, and school districts nationwide.
One defining issue that distinguishes ACMS is that we are the only company that exclusively provides School Crossing Guard Services. It is our commitment to limiting the scope and focus of the company to School Crossing Guards that has helped us emerge as "The Crossing Guard Company". We have successfully privatized the Crossing Guard programs for over 330+ agencies in 22 states across the country. Ultimately our clients become the beneficiaries of our single-minded approach toward this industry.
The heart of our business is in assuming responsibility for the task and challenges of conducting a successful Crossing Guard Program. Toward that end, in our typical contractual arrangement we assume responsibility for recruitment, local hiring, background clearance compliant with Department of Justice standards, initial and ongoing training, payroll and administrative support functions, coordination of assigning qualified substitutes during absences, local supervision, complaint , his at on sing raine. investigation and resolution, communicating with schools and site safety inspections.
One of the benefits we bring to any agency is our expertise in overseeing a seamless transition from public to private management of the program. The continuity of the Crossing Guards' employment is a key component of a flawless transition. We value the experiences and understanding of the Crossing Guards currently working in each program we manage. Much of our success with individual programs is a result of the experience and knowledge these Crossing Guards bring to our management.
With over 40 years of experience, ACMS leads the Crossing Guard Industry in the development of Crossing Guard standards for training, supervision, and safety. Each program we have taken on ha:
rought a unique set of issues and challenges. The heart of our success has been our ability t articulate these challenges and experiences into our training, policies, and procedures to benefit all Crossing Guards in all the cities, towns, and communities we service.
All City Management Services, Inc., has not lost a client agency due to failure or refusals to complete a contract and has not lost a client agency due to the level of service provided.
Executive Summary
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS) is the nation's largest and only organization dedicated exclusively to School Crossing Guard services. With more than 9,000 employees and over 330 public-sector programs nationwide, ACMS delivers a fully managed, risk-reducing, and operationally efficient model supported by 40 years of experience.
ACMS strengthens public-sector programs by assuming full operational responsibility for recruitment, background clearances, training, supervision, safety oversight, and substitute coordination.
Background checks are processed through the Department of Justice to ensure strict compliance with safety and hiring standards. ACMS further enhances municipal risk management by conducting site-specific safety inspections, implementing structured performance evaluations, and enforcing a zero-tolerance policy for "No call, No show, No job," ensuring program reliability and safety continuity.
To address staffing vacancies, ACMS employs an aggressive, multi-channel recruitment model including local media, targeted flyers, school-based outreach, and referral incentives—and maintains a robust substitute roster with a recommended 5:1 ratio of alternates to sites. ACMS' location based timekeeping app provides real-time oversight of guard attendance, enabling supervisors to immediately identify no-shows and dispatch alternates, significantly reducing vacancy-related service interruptions. This app also enhances billing accuracy and strengthens reporting for recruitment and staffing performance.
Training is a central pillar of the ACMS model. New hires participate in classroom instruction, field demonstrations, functional capacity evaluations, and structured performance assessments using ACMS' Employee Handbook, Field Training Cards, and Field Training Checklist. Supervisors conduct both scheduled and unannounced evaluations to reinforce safe crossing practices and maintain consistent performance across all intersections.
The ACMS field management structure-consisting of Area Supervisors, Operations Managers, and a Director of Operations—provides 24/7 oversight, safety monitoring, injury response coordination, and direct communication with school personnel. This layered supervision model ensures rapid response to staffing issues, injuries, and operational needs while maintaining high accountability at every level.
In addition to enhanced safety and reduced municipal liability, ACMS delivers a transparent and cost-efficient solution. All timekeeping data flows directly into payroll and invoicing systems, reducing administrative burden and minimizing billing discrepancies. The company's ability to eliminate vacancies, stabilize staffing, assume all HR-related responsibilities, and reduce risk exposure provides public agencies with measurable operational and financial value.
With more than 330 clients-including major programs in Dallas, Fort Worth, Clark County, and Los Angeles County ACMS offers a proven, scalable, and safety-driven approach to crossing-guard program management.

4.0 Work Plan
Approach and Management Plan
ACMS employs a Team Concept of management which results in efficient field operations as well as providing a multifaceted response to potential problems. The Vice President of Operations and Director of Operations will work together (with input from City of Vernon) to establish specific program objectives and expectations. These Senior Managers then work directly with your Operations Team Manager and Local Area Supervisor to implement the management plan.
The Team Manager, along with your Local Area Supervisor, has responsibility for the direct management of the Crossing Guards and together they will ensure the City's operational expectations are met. Standards and expectations are communicated to Crossing Guards personally by their Local Area Supervisor so as to allow the employee a better understanding of the decision-making process. This helps reduce confrontational attitudes by establishing and enhancing the common goal of providing for the safety of school children.
Crossing Guard performance and compliance with safety standards will be accomplished through regular site visits by the Local Area Supervisor and Team Manager. In addition to verbal training and counseling, the manager is supported by the use of Field Training Check Lists, Field Training Cards, Site Performance Evaluations, Corrective Action Reports and independent Field Observations from our Quality Assurance Team. Reports of satisfactory completion of all levels of training and ongoing safety reviews will be summarized and available to City representatives.
Background checks will be completed on all potential employees as allowed by California State Law. Successful completion of the finger-print based background check, which includes a National and State of California Criminal and Sex Offender Check. With all background checks using the applicant's social security number and date of birth to avoid any mistaken identities. We also use Sterling Check Systems that allows for Extended Global Sanctions that include FBI Most Wanted List, Interpol, Terrorist Watch Lists, etc. We will also use Social Security verification via E-Verify, which is required prior to the employee being hired.
ACMS will conduct physical assessments to ensure the applicants are physically capable of performing the job duties of a School Crossing Guard. ACMS will comply with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission guidelines when making hiring decisions based on criminal records.
After pre hire screening ACMS may conduct random field testing for drugs and or alcohol when use is suspected or at the discretion of management. ACMS has a strict policy on Drug and Alcohol abuse. This policy is included in our School Crossing Guard Employee Manual.
Internal minimum passing standards along with City of Vernon established standards would prevent any person from working as a Crossing Guard for the program who has been convicted of any crime of moral turpitude or a crime against children, including, but not limited to:
• Conduct in violation of California Penal Code or which requires registration under California Penal Code
• Conduct which requires registration under the California Health and Safety Code. • Any offense involving the use of force or violence upon another person. • Any offense involving theft, fraud, dishonesty, or deceit. • Any offense involving the manufacture, sales, possession, or use of a controlled substance.
• Conspiracy or attempt to commit any of the aforementioned offenses. • Any registered sex offender or narcotics offender.
Summary reports of background clearance on employees within the City of Vernon Crossing Juard program will be regularly available to the City. The Crossing Guards in the City rogram will report to school authorities the names of children who do not follow safety schoo regulations. Crossing Guards will report the license plate numbers of motor vehicles who violate traffic laws or crossing guard instructions.
ACMS will investigate all public complaints concerning crossing guard services. All incidents shall be reported to the City within two (2) hours to advise the nature of the complaint. ACMS shall furnish a written report within five (5) business days after the date of the incident, which includes the course of action/remedy/resolution of said complaint.
Communications with individual school sites is facilitated by the Field Supervisor. Personal visits are made regularly (minimum quarterly) to each school site in an effort to develop relationships with staff and establish a collaborative environment for information exchange.
Calendars and bell schedules are obtained for each school both at the beginning of the school year and periodically throughout the year. Key school personnel are supplied with appropriate contact information (business cards) and reminded to inform ACMS of any changes.
Additionally, schools are provided with large magnets which can be easily displayed, making contact information effectively available to all staff. The email address of the Office Manager is also obtained which enables ACMS administrative support stafi to regularly contact each school and proactively solicit information regarding potential schedule changes.
The establishment of accurate and responsive shift times is critical to the effectiveness of Crossing Guard services. Sites further from the school would be expected to start earlier in the morning and finish later in the afternoon. These staggered shifts effectively address the time it takes for students to walk from a remote location to the school site (or vice versa in the afternoon) and optimize the protected periods. Additionally, locations are continually monitored for actual pedestrian traffic patterns enabling a better understanding of site needs and any potential deviation from established guidelines.
ACMS Area Supervisors are in the field daily when crossings are covered by the guards, and they ensure all guards arrive on time and are ready for duties as scheduled.
Recruitment and Staffing
ACMS National Recruiting Manager, California Operations Manager, and our Director of Operations will assess any additional staffing needs of the City of Vernon Crossing Guard Services program after meeting with your agency. We would then focus further recruitment efforts in the geographical areas where additional Crossing Guards will be needed.
Our ability to aggressively staff a Crossing Guard Program remains a fundamental benefit that ACMS brings to most Crossing Guard Programs. Our National Recruiting Manager and her dedicated team employ every hiring platform available to maximize our job posting distribution.
We utilize soft advertising, local media advertising, targeted flyers, on-site solicitation, school flyers and employee referral bonuses as parts of our overall recruitment strategy. We often work closely with school districts in recruitment drives and conduct hiring events at senior centers, parks, and civic centers.
Our approach integrates community immersion, along with collaboration between recruiters and the Area Supervisor to ensure successful ongoing recruitment efforts. This partnership is the comerstone of our ability to cultivate a consistent labor pool, fulfilling the Area Supervisor's responsibility of maintaining fully staffed sites year-round. With the inclusion of our "Crossing Guard App" providing data related to turnover and missed shifts, we can target specific areas we have challenges staffing. The "App" provides target zip codes and area codes to concentrate on these areas and find personnel in close proximity to where staffing is needed most.
Area Supervisors are prepared to continuously recruit and train prospective Crossing Guards for all sites under their supervision. New recruits are first processed and submitted to the Department of Justice for background clearance along with other pre-employment requirements for the program. As part of our staffing strategy Local Area Supervisors also aggressively enforce the following policies and procedures for Crossing Guards. • Supervisors must maintain a 5 to 1 ratio of alternate or substitute guard roster. • Any guard not reporting for duty must notify the Area Supervisor directly or by utilizing our 24/7 Guard Hotline. Notifications less than 1 hour prior to shift starts are considered unexcused absences.
• Our employee policy is "No call, No show, No Job." During training we emphasize that we cannot compromise children's safety by failing to call or no show for duty.
Supervisor Teams - The City of Vernon crossing guard program would benefit from our presence in nearby municipalities such as: Huntington Park, Commerce, South Gate, and the Los Angeles County Office of Education. Area Supervisors are organized into geographic teams that convene quarterly to foster interdepartmental cooperation and streamline strategic sharing of alternate guards. This "shared resource" model significantly improves personnel retention and promotes a more stable workforce since alternate guards often get assigned additional hours.
Employee Retention: To enhance employee satisfaction and support our retention efforts, ACMS reviews guard wage rates annually in an effort to continually remain competitive in the local labor market. If contractual and budget requirements are allowed, we plan to offer small wage increases annually based upon performance and tenure.
Employee Rewards: We also provide publicized employee recognition through our Crossing Guard of the Year programs and Length of Service Awards. Additionally, we provide local Are Supervisors with a small budget for employee socials
Training
Effective initial and ongoing training is essential in a profession dedicated to the safety of children. With more than 40 years of experience and a strong commitment to collaboration with public safety professionals, ACMS is recognized as an industry leader in the development and delivery of School Crossing Guard training and related standards of excellence.
Our training process begins with the first interaction with a prospective employee. During the phone interview, we clearly outline job expectations and our zero-tolerance policy regarding failure to report for scheduled shifts. Throughout the application process, candidates are continually reminded of the critical nature of this work and the high level of integrity and professionalism required.
Once hired, employees begin with classroom instruction, where they review key components of the Employee Handbook for School Crossing Guards. Training then transitions to a field practicum in which a certified trainer demonstrates proper procedures and provides hands-on opportunities for employees to practice skills. Employee progress is documented using the detailed Field Training Checklist, ensuring competency in all required tasks. This blended learning approach supports visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles.
Classroom instruction typically requires approximately two hours, with an additional two hours dedicated to field training. Our low student-to-trainer ratio allows for individualized attention and accurate assessment of each employee's readiness to advance. New employees are generally assigned to alternate work initially and are closely supervised during their early shifts. Trainers' complete written performance assessments, allowing employees to gain insight into their strengths and areas for improvement. All newly hired employees are also required to carry Field Training Cards-pocket-sized reference tools outlining the steps for safe crossing procedures— until they have fully memorized all required processes.
Throughout their employment, stati continue to receive periodic evaluations using the Site Performance Evaluation form. These reviews occur both during scheduled side-by-side sessions and through unannounced observations, ensuring ongoing accountability and consistent performance.
Standard-Issue Equipment and Uniform Includes:
• ANSI II-compliant high-visibility, retro-reflective vest marked with required Crossing Guard insignia
• MUTCD-compliant 18" STOP/STOP paddle
• Picture identification card with emergency contact information • Company-issued cap or visor featuring the corporate logo • Whistle for emergency alerting of vehicles and pedestrians

Added Benefit-Unspecified Value
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS) has developed a Crossing Guard "App" that is location based, which only allows guards to clock in once they are actually on site. This "App" will indicate when a crossing guard is on site and more importantly, allows AEMS to quickly identify when a guard is not on site. MS Proprietary
In red in this ap will and pest naticatin an the cal Area Supervisor ta Cline Guard has not clocked in for their scheduled shift. This "App" will allow ACMS to not only quickly determine where staffing efforts are needed but also will improve our billing and invoicing accuracy. Our billing/invoicing is tied to our payroll and by having a more efficient process for timekeeping, this should eliminate potential billing inaccuracies. Additionally, this "App" is collecting data that helps our reporting for staffing and recruitment efforts.
There is no additional cost to have this incorporated into the City of Vernon program and if awarded, we expect to roll this out for the 2026/2027 school year.
This "App" provides a level of transparent oversight to our clients that no competitor in our industry can match.
