Our History
Spectrum Advisory Group was founded in April of 2010, by Alex Perez, from an idea that came from working with the San Antonio Police Officers Association (SAPOA) as their agent of record. While working with SAPOA, Alex found that many of the benefits in supplemental insurance products were geared toward normal municipal employees, not police officers. That is when Spectrum Advisory Group made the goal that it was going to build supplemental insurance products that were designed for police by police. Most importantly, the products were going to evolve as the cultural fabric of police work changed and became more complicated.
In 2011 and 2012, Spectrum Advisory Group began expanding across the state of Texas, acquiring notable police unions such as the Corpus Christi Police Officers Association and the Brownsville Police Officers Association. During this time of growth, we invested time and money in proprietary enrollment systems, knowledgeable insurance specialists, and anchored police union offices. As we continued to grow into 2016, we added notable clients such as the Austin Police Association, Fort Worth Police Officers Association, Laredo Police Officers Association, and the CLEAT Dental and Vision Trust.
As the fabric of police culture changed dramatically in 2018, Spectrum Advisory Group launched its flagship product: the Administrative Duty policy. This policy is the only one of its kind in the market that protects officers who are placed on Administrative Duty because they were involved in an OIS (officer involved shooting), in-custody death, complaint, or anything that causes management to place the officer in a limited duty status. This policy launched Spectrum Advisory Group into the national spotlight. In 2019, the Las Vegas Metro Police Managers and Supervisors Association (PMSA) became the first client outside the state of Texas. There has been such a great reception in Nevada, there are other associations in the process of partnering with Spectrum to offer Spectrum’s superior products to their members as well.
Today, Spectrum Advisory group enjoys three offices in the state of Texas, with seven full-time Insurance Specialists serving the existing client base. We also have two full-time Claims Specialists ensuring all claims are processed and paid in a timely manner. The future looks bright for our company as we are one the few companies that pride themselves in making it their mission to Protect the People Who Protect Us.
