A daily occurrence book app for security and manned guarding
The daily occurrence book is the backbone of manned guarding, and a paper one is easy to lose, hard to search and impossible to produce quickly when a client wants to see a specific shift. Patrols, incidents and handovers all need recording in a way that stands up later.
OpsCores runs the daily occurrence book, patrol checks and incident reports as digital forms today, with geofenced check-in to log attendance. Be clear on scope: a dedicated guarding template pack is on the roadmap, but the DOB, forms, registers and check-in features are live now.
OpsCores runs a digital daily occurrence book, incident reports and geofenced patrol check-in today, compiling each week into a dated evidence PDF for clients.
A digital daily occurrence book
Record occurrences, patrol rounds and shift notes as digital forms with photos, statuses, timestamps and signatures. Entries are dated and searchable, so retrieving a specific shift or incident is a search rather than a hunt through handwritten pages.
Incident reporting with photos and sign-off
Capture incidents as they happen with structured reports, photo evidence and signatures, stored in the signature vault. Because reports are timestamped and filed automatically, the account of an event is preserved cleanly for the client and, where needed, for the authorities.
Geofenced check-in and out for patrol attendance
Officers check in and out against a site's geofence, with an optional selfie, giving a clear record of who was on post and when. Check-in never blocks an officer from starting a shift; an unverified location is flagged for review rather than rejected, which matters when GPS is unreliable indoors.
Handover evidence, compiled weekly
OpsCores compiles the week's occurrences, incident reports and patrol checks into a single dated PDF and files documents by week-ending. Client reporting and shift handover both draw on the same organised record instead of scattered notebooks.
Frequently asked questions
Can OpsCores replace a paper daily occurrence book?
Yes. Occurrences, patrol rounds and shift notes are logged as digital forms with timestamps, photos and signatures, making entries searchable and easy to retrieve by shift or date.
Is there a dedicated security or guarding template pack?
Not yet; a guarding pack is on the roadmap. The daily occurrence book, incident reporting, registers and geofenced check-in all work today using the live forms engine.
Does check-in fail if an officer's GPS is unreliable?
No. Check-in never blocks an officer starting a shift. An unverified or missing location is flagged for review, which is important where GPS is weak inside buildings.
