Our Services & working history
Our background comes from 15 years working at
street level for cities on 3 continents in all aspects of the anti
graffiti from mass removals, coatings and general abatement works
through to the development of
Tripwire the GRIP database and a full range of cost effective and
micro level strategy designs.
Our work and technology has always been designed to provide the
ultimate package for a city.
We regularly see cities work to reduce costs and improve
productivity with regard to removals and abatement however many fail
to realize that the most important aspect of any program is dealing
with the offender, the source of the hundreds of thousands of
dollars in damages every year.
The GRIP database was designed by graffiti experts, law enforcement
and cities cooperation to ensure that a city, no matter what size
could have the most expert database for graffiti possible at a price
to encourage other neighboring cities of stakeholders to be on the
same platform. The system is designed and price so that with
multiple victim groups on the one system an offenders entire damage
history is instantly known without question and for full ability to
achieve restitution for all their damage. With recent incredible
wins through civil actions against offenders parents, cities are now
well placed to have their offenders on notice that the database and
pending action when caught will bring about serious ramifications.
The graffiti issues that for so many years was deemed impossible to
remedy is now seeing positive change, and seeing cities with new
found powers and abilities to tackle this issue head on and with
determination.
The Tripwire cameras we designed to bring about serious ability to
apprehend offenders on site and live.
After constantly witnessing the wholesale destruction even one solo
offender can cause and looking at the failure of CCTV and other
after the fact technology we determined to design the units to make
change possible.
A city shouldn’t flounder in its graffiti issues and year after year
simply design policy around quicker or cheaper removals. A city of
any size has technology readily available to make these long term or
up and coming offenders accountable instantly and for all of their
past damage when GRIP is in use.
It is so critical for a city to realise that one offender can over
his life cycle as an offender cause tens if not hundreds of
thousands of dollars in damages singularly without even accounting
for those he might recruit to add to this damage trail.
GRIP and Tripwire when used in unison bring about change for those
who want to deal with these issues in a forthright manner and with
conviction.
Our designs and projects are purpose built for the sole purpose of
graffiti and crime reduction at an affordable price.
We see others who design data systems and profess that graffiti is
an expert only field and there fore you must use us for your
analysis and data entry. This tact has seen some cities believe this
and in some cases spend anywhere from $12,000 up to $100,000 each
year for a basic data entry process which can be done so readily in
house using DPW or even volunteers to build up the data on their
offenders. Graffiti is not for the most part a science and in fact
many cities are realizing this and making the switch to GRIP
realizing that the benefits in doing their own data entry brings
about savings but more importantly a host of advantages that cities
can enjoy when doing their own works.
Our companies as mentioned have solid solutions for those who have
either never faced graffiti as a Major issue previously or for those
who have strategies and policy in play but feel they need refining
to make solid changes.
Regardless of your cities stance or levels of damage, we at GRIP can
offer inexpensive advise, consultancy and equipment to make real
impact in the fastest most cost effective way possible.
Graffiti and associated crime does not have to be an annual
everlasting scourge. With the right components in place and a
commitment in combating the issues we can advise and determine the
best ways forward.

Our work has seen dozens of city audits conducted with some being conducted regularly to review performance and effectiveness of implemented strategies. Our work takes in dozens of successful programs and their positives and merges them into the winning catalysts that can help your city.
Our micro level programs and educational packages allow a city have tailored programs that must occur to be relevant to your demographic and set of issues.
To win the war against graffiti requires a specific set of components that are relative to each city. It needs to be realized that what works for one city will not necessarily work for another.
Here at GRIP we witness the wins and the losses that occur in cities worldwide and bring about a unique and solid representation to your city that will be afforded, effective and performance driven.
We hope that our long list of working cities and clients past and present offer an appreciation for what we have to offer be it a city of 20,000 or a metropolis where graffiti is considered simply out of control.
