Two senior operators between your principal and what goes wrong.
We stand between the people we work for and the things that go wrong around them. Executive protection and black car transportation, run by named leads, briefed in writing, on call 24 / 7.
Drop your number. Luke or Leo calls back in under 20 minutes.

Where we move.
From the tarmac to the room. Two FBOs we work most, four venues we run weekly, the routes between them. Every detail starts with knowing this picture.

Every detail runs the same shape, in writing, under the same name from intake to close-out.
-
01
Brief
Written intake. Service type, principal posture, route, exposure, documentation. Confirmed within two business hours by the named lead.
-
02
Advance
Venue and route walked, FBO contact made, hotel and choke-points cleared. The same operator who briefed you is the one on the curb.
-
03
Movement
Plain-clothes posture by default. Two-vehicle plan where exposure warrants. Press, crowd, and venue contact handled by the lead.
-
04
Close-Out
Written report. Routes used, contacts made, deviations from brief, recommendations for next engagement. Filed within 24 hours.
What we do not do.
Every Charlotte firm claims everything. We name what we will not run, so the named lead always answers for what we will.
-
Counter-surveillance and counter-stalking.
Specialized work, full team of eight or more. We refer.
-
K9 explosive or narcotic detection.
Capital and certification we do not carry. We refer.
-
Kidnap and ransom response.
Insurer-driven, retainer infrastructure required. We refer to your KR carrier panel.
-
Standalone unarmed guard contracts.
We run details under a named lead, not posts. Different work, different firms.
Always putting a solution in front of every problem.
Built around one rule.
Solutions and Problems LLC was co-founded by Luke Ford and Leo Thomas after watching the same three failures, again and again, on details run by other firms.
The named lead was not named anymore. The operator on the curb was not the one on the brief. The invoice grew between booking and arrival. Every engagement here starts with a brief, runs under one named lead the whole way, and ends with a written close-out. No subcontracted strangers, no surprises.
