Compare! Compare! Compare!

You have undoubtedly worked with a variety of guard monitoring systems; some were OK, others were not. None compare to the GuardChecker Service! For the more popular, pre-packaged systems our prices are compatible; however there is no comparison when it comes to performance and adaptability. GuardChecker is a “game changer”!

Competitive Advantage!

Let’s face it; the competition selling security guard service is intense. You already have many clients trying to reduce their guard force by adding more technology. Compounding the situation is that there is very little room to move on price. In fact, in many competitive situations, jobs are won based on factors other than cost.

Those other factors vary widely, but competing performance claims are one of the big ones.

• What if you could objectively prove your claims and competitors could only offer “trust me”. Would that help you win more work?
• What if you could show the clients at their own facility that you were objectively meeting their requirements? Would that help you win more work?
• What if you could offer a cost effective service that permits the clients to routinely monitor your performance at their facility? Would that help you win more work?

Conflict resolution.

In any type of service business, client issues will arise. Frequently it results in a “he said; she said” situation with no clear result. What if you collected performance data based on the contract metrics? Would that be helpful in resolving those types of sticky issues?

On-Site Hours?

Many security companies pay their guards by the hour. Since in most cases there is no easy way to collect time and attendance hours at the client’s facility, you are forced to accept other, less formal procedures. With GuardChecker, we provide an easy procedure, with accompanying hardware, to collect on-site hours. This time and attendance data is collected uniquely for each guard. This information can be formatted in any manner that is most suitable for your accounting needs.

You can see ALL your Clients!

The data base that supports GuardChecker is not tied to a single client, nor is it limited to a single facility. While each organization will have a small slice of a fully integrated data base; it is easy to offer reports that show performance across all your clients. GuardChecker is specifically designed to have unlimited organizational scalability. For a security company it is easy to integrate your local organizations into a region, and then further integrate regions into your whole company. By being web based it is even possible to create a worldwide reporting operation.

The Owner’s Dream - This unlimited scalability combined with GuardChecker’s powerful report writer capability gives the Owner the ability to review and analyze all his security entities on a consistent basis. The owner can sort, compare, and analyze, based on any time frame or collected variable.

Review your reports on any computer, anywhere!

As you have already experienced with existing monitoring systems, it is difficult view reports on any computer other than the one where the pre-packaged program was installed. With GuardChecker, using proper authorization, you can view all reports on any computer, anywhere there is an internet connection. There is no need to download, print, fax, etc, to see performance reports. You can see them as quickly as your client.

IT, a very scarce resource!

Some of the larger security companies have their own IT staff, but this may be limited in small to mid size companies. Even though there may be staff, in the current tech environment these folks have to service a wide variety of devices. The IT burden is demanding and expensive. With GuardChecker the IT burden is almost zero! You might have to do a little work to integrate the time and attendance feature with your accounting system, but that’s about it.

Confirm these advantages by reviewing the major ASIS paper, Cloud Computing and Software as a Service (SaaS), published in February 2010.
Real time, failure to report, ALERTS!

As you are aware, one of the major concerns for any Security Company occurs where there is not 24 hours coverage, and the scheduled guard does not to report for duty (or reports late). Normally the first time you hear about it is from your irate client.
With GuardChecker we have the “Phone In” option. This option requires the guard, within a specific time frame, to call in to a 1-800 number using a prescribed telephone and enter a guard specific PIN. If everything goes as planned the call will be entered in the data base and be routinely viewed when you check your reports. If the guard does not phone in as planned, then immediately after the time frame has expired, alerts will be sent out real time. Txt messages and emails will be sent to the mangers you have previously designated.
We also strongly recommend that the guard continues to sign in using the time and attendance device once he arrives on site. This “belt and suspenders” approach prevents any spoofing and permits the time and attendance procedure to work smoothly.

The Price.

GuardChecker has many features, but not every company will need them all. Our pricing system is designed to accommodate differing needs. Our philosophy is to only pay for what you use. Contact us to determine what configuration works best for your company. From there we’ll develop a proposal that meets your requirements.

We look forward to working with you to develop a long term arrangement that works best for you and your clients.
