About Apogee Global RMS
Apogee Global RMS is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) delivering enterprise-grade integrated risk management solutions for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and public sector organizations. We specialize in three core pillars: Cyber & Physical Security Risk Advisory, Strategy & Leader Development, and Executive Search & RPO Services.
As a veteran-led, outcome-driven firm built on decades of national security, law enforcement, and enterprise technology experience, our commitment is to stand with you at critical moments, ensuring your mission's success through expert guidance and strategic partnership. We don't offer templates—we engineer precision-built strategies that fuse People, Process, and Protection into a single, decisive advantage. Our work helps organizations cut through uncertainty, confront complex risk head-on, and turn volatility into durable, long-term value.
Company Background & History
Founded in 2024 by a U.S. military veteran with a deep commitment to leadership, national service, and organizational excellence, Apogee Global RMS began with a singular focus: to revolutionize how organizations manage risk and develop their people. Our foundation is built on the belief that success in business hinges on the strategic integration of People, Process, and Protection—not just technology or processes alone.
As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), we bring military-grade discipline, strategic thinking, and decades of experience from national security, law enforcement, and enterprise technology sectors to serve both private and public organizations. We have grown into a trusted partner for SMBs and public sector organizations, continuously expanding our capabilities and global presence. Our journey has been marked by significant milestones, including the launch of our comprehensive cybersecurity managed services, strategic leadership development programs, and partnerships with leading organizations across North America, Latin America, UK, Middle East, and English-speaking Asia—all driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence and client success.

To be the trusted partner for organizations seeking remarkable results in an era of unprecedented risk and complexity.
