Security Concepts was contracted to manage police enforcement due to Detroit's dire financial situation and OCP's desire to built their futuristic Metropolis, Delta City, on the site of the crime-ridden Old Detroit . Security Concepts believed the crime situation to be so severe that it would require a law enforcement presence that could be on duty 24 hours a day without rest while maintaining maximum enforcement efficiency. The project began with the creation of the Enforcement Droid series 209 (ED-209), a heavily armed and armored mecha programmed for urban pacification.
