Vigiles

Our Story

More than two millennia ago, the Vigiles patrolled the streets of Rome as history’s first combined fire brigade and police force— ordinary men who stepped forward when no one else would, standing watch through the night to keep their neighbors safe. That same spirit of vigilant service is the heartbeat of The Vigiles Group today. We chose the name to honor those early protectors, but also to signal our own promise: to bridge every gap in public safety with integrity, courage, and relentless readiness.

A Founder Shaped by Front-Line Experience

​

Our journey began with Jared A. Davis, who discovered early on in life that service to others was his calling. Jared spent almost a decade as a U.S. Army Military Police soldier, patrolling streets at home and in combat zones, leading a Special Reaction Team, and investigating crimes on federal installations. He later cross-trained as a Combat Medic and then answered a new calling as a firefighter and industrial rescue technician, logging thousands of hours on ropes, in confined spaces, and on the fire line.

​

Across those disciplines, one problem kept surfacing: fragmented response systems. A security team might be standing by without medical backup, or firefighters would scramble to an incident with no reliable communications link to private EMS. Jared watched tragedies unfold because organizations that should have worked together simply could not connect—logistically, legally, or technologically.

The Spark

​

In 2024, during a rescue standby at a chemical plant, where radio communications were difficult and no backup (PACE) plans were in place, Jared sketched the first outline of what would become The Vigiles Group on the back of a rescue plan worksheet. The idea was deceptively simple: build one company that could integrate security, rescue, fire, EMS, and communications under a single, veteran-led roof—and do it with the same disciplined standards he learned in the military.

Vision: Closing Every Safety Gap

​

By early 2025, that sketch had turned into a clear vision:

• All-Hazards Partner – Provide turnkey security, fire, rescue, and medical services so clients never have to juggle multiple vendors for emergency management and safety services.

• Communications Backbone – Launch Vigiles Communications, a nationwide PTToC/ RoIP dispatch network, evolving into a UL-Listed central monitoring station and certified Public Safety Answering Point by 2026.

• Future Expansion – Grow into private fire protection, wildland response, rope-access industrial services, and disaster response logistics—all connected through redundant, interoperable tech.

• Veteran Opportunity Pipeline – Create stable, meaningful careers for veterans and first responders who share our service DNA.

Mission: Veteran-Owned. Service-Minded. Mission-Ready.

​

Our mission is carved into every SOP we write:

“Stand watch where others cannot—delivering uncompromising safety, security, and emergency response with the heart of a servant and the precision of a seasoned professional.”

​

We refuse to cut corners. Every armed officer exceeds state training minimums with biannual firearms qualification and annual fitness tests. Rescue techs are certified to NFPA Operations, Awareness, and Technician levels, well above the industrial rescue norms. EMS crews train quarterly, and our communications division is engineered with triple-path redundancy across all three major carriers, IP gateways, and legacy LMR/DMR/P25.

​

Why We’re Different

​

• Unified Command Mindset – One call activates a fully coordinated team.

• Technology with Purpose – Smart surveillance, AI-assisted monitoring, and real-time radio tracking aren’t buzzwords—they’re baked into our daily ops.

• Faith-Anchored Ethics – Our founder’s Christian values shape transparent billing, fair wages and benefits, and a culture that welcomes every creed and background.

• Community Over Competition – Whether supplementing municipal EMS or protecting a small business, we partner to relieve the burden on overstretched public systems, not replace them.

​

The Road Ahead

​

Today, we’re finalizing state licenses, onboarding founding dispatch clients, and preparing to raise the doors on our Houston operations center. Tomorrow—thanks to investors, partners, and clients who share our vision—we’ll expand across Texas and beyond, always returning to that Roman watchfire: ordinary people, extraordinary vigilance.
