What software do UK security companies use to manage officers and sites?

UK manned guarding and mobile patrol companies use security workforce software to plan rotas, verify attendance on site, record patrols and incidents, and report to clients. ForceVera does this in one platform: rotas published to officers' phones, a geofenced clock-in, QR patrol checkpoints, incident and daily reports, a client portal and timesheets.

Built for the UK

What security companies in the UK need, in one platform

SIA licences on fileOfficers upload a photo of their SIA licence in the app, so a copy sits on each officer's profile alongside their sites and shifts.
Records for BS 7499 and ACS auditsAssignment instructions (post orders) that officers acknowledge, patrol scans, incident logs and supervision records are kept per site, ready to show an auditor or a client.
Hours under the Working Time RegulationsTimesheets show the hours each officer actually worked, so you can check them against the 48-hour average and rest-break rules before you publish the next rota.
Lone workers looked afterDispatchers see who is on duty and get alerts when an officer leaves the site or stops moving, so a lone worker who goes quiet is noticed.
UK GDPR built inA Data Processing Addendum with the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, separate workspaces per company and a cookie banner for UK visitors.
Your brand on client reportsClients receive daily reports with your logo and colours, sent from your own email address.

Features

Everything your operation runs on

Guard tour system Set up checkpoints and tours for every site, let guards scan them from their phone, and see straight away when a round is missed or late. Guard scheduling Plan the week across sites and guards in one grid, publish it to everyone's phone, and see open posts before they become missed shifts. Geofenced time clock Guards start duty and breaks from the app only when they are inside the site's geofence, and a clock-out away from the site is flagged. Timesheets build themselves, ready for payroll and client billing. Incident & daily reports Guards report from their phone with photos, your team reviews, and clients get a clear daily report without anyone retyping notes. Dispatch & command center Give dispatchers and supervisors one screen with every site, every guard on duty and every open issue, and the tools to act on them. Client portal Give each client a login to see coverage at their sites, guards on duty, patrol results and reports, and let them add their own colleagues with the right access. Client billing & invoicing Approve the hours your guards worked, and ForceVera applies each client's bill rates, overtime and holidays to build the invoice. No retyping timesheets into a spreadsheet. Guard mobile app Guards see their shifts, clock in on site, patrol, report and talk to the office from one app. Supervisors manage their sites from the same app.
FAQ

ForceVera in the UK: questions, answered

Does ForceVera work for UK security companies?

Yes. ForceVera is used to run manned guarding and mobile patrol: rotas, geofenced clock-in, patrols, incident and daily reports, dispatch and a client portal. It is a web app plus an iOS and Android app for officers.

Can ForceVera store SIA licences?

Officers can upload a photo of their SIA licence in the app, and it is kept on their profile. ForceVera does not check licences with the SIA; use the SIA's online register for that.

Does ForceVera make us BS 7499 or ACS compliant?

No software makes a company compliant on its own. ForceVera keeps the records auditors usually ask to see, such as assignment instructions, patrol records, incident logs and timesheets, in one place.

Is ForceVera GDPR compliant for UK data?

ForceVera provides a Data Processing Addendum covering the UK GDPR, including the UK International Data Transfer Addendum for data hosted in the United States. Your company remains the controller of your officers' and clients' data.

Can we pay in pounds?

Prices are in US dollars and charged to your card through Stripe, and your bank converts them to pounds.
