Security Guard & Patrol

Security Guard Dispatch Software

Schedule guard shifts and patrols, verify QR and GPS checkpoints, log incident reports, and prove coverage — configured to your exact post orders.

Who it's for

Security companies running fixed posts and mobile patrols that need verifiable checkpoints, incident records, and proof of coverage.

What it fixes
  • There's no proof a guard actually walked the patrol or hit every checkpoint.
  • Incidents are written on paper and lost.
  • A shift gets closed even though required checkpoints were skipped.
  • Coverage across posts and shifts is coordinated over the phone.
How it works

The security guard & patrol dispatch workflow

Built on the Dispatch DNA Engine — you configure these stages without code, and the engine enforces them.

01

Schedule the shift or post

Set up recurring shifts and fixed posts, and assign guards.

02

Start the shift

The guard starts the shift from the mobile app — no GPS lock required to begin.

03

Scan checkpoints

Scan QR checkpoints with the phone camera or verify by GPS as the patrol proceeds.

04

Log incidents

File an incident report with a form and photo at any point during the shift.

05

End the shift when covered

The shift can only close once the required checkpoints are logged.

Built in, not bolted on

What VersaDispatch does for security guard & patrol operations

QR & GPS checkpoints

Verify patrol coverage by scanning QR codes with the camera or capturing GPS.

Shift & patrol scheduling

Recurring shifts and fixed posts assigned across your guards.

Incident reports

Capture incident forms and photos in the field, tied to the shift.

Coverage enforcement

Require a number of checkpoints before a shift can be closed.

Immutable shift record

Every checkpoint and incident is recorded on a tamper-evident timeline.

Configured to your post orders

Build the exact checkpoint and shift rules your contract requires.

Questions

Security Guard & Patrol dispatch — common questions

How does VersaDispatch verify a guard hit a checkpoint?

Guards scan QR checkpoints with the phone camera or capture GPS at each point. Each scan is recorded on the shift's timeline as proof of coverage.

Can a shift be blocked from closing if checkpoints were missed?

Yes. You can require a set number of checkpoints before the shift is allowed to end, enforced by the workflow engine.

Is GPS required the whole shift?

No. A shift can start and progress without a constant GPS lock — GPS and QR are captured at the checkpoints you define, so it works for indoor and fixed posts too.
