The complete security guard software platform for UK contractors — from shift scheduling and run sheet management to SIA licence tracking, lone worker monitoring, and control room visibility.
Running a security guarding operation means juggling dozens of moving parts at once: rosters that change at short notice, SIA licence expiry dates to watch, clients expecting live incident updates, and control rooms needing real-time progress visibility. NightWarden is the security guard software built specifically for UK-licensed security companies to handle all of it in one place.
Traditional security guard software either focuses narrowly on payroll or provides generic workforce management tools that ignore the realities of regulated guarding work. NightWarden is different. Every feature — from shift role definitions with credential requirements to patrol series scheduling with GPS-timestamped check-ins — has been designed around the daily operations of SIA-licensed guarding companies in the UK.
The platform gives managers a single operational dashboard covering staffing, scheduling, client site compliance, and live field activity. When a guard starts a shift, the mobile app guides them through their site-specific run sheet, capturing task completion with timestamps and photos. The control room app shows progress across all active sites simultaneously, flagging overdue check-ins and escalating lone worker alerts without manual intervention.
Clients benefit too. The branded client portal lets property managers and site contacts view live shift progress, download inspection reports, and raise queries — reducing the volume of update calls to your control room and demonstrating the professionalism that wins contract renewals. For busy commercial and industrial clients who manage multiple sites, automatic compliance report generation saves hours of admin every week.
Whether you run a small team of six guards or coordinate hundreds of staff across the county, NightWarden scales with your operation. The platform supports unlimited client sites, nested patrol areas, multi-role shift assignments, and partner-to-client white-labelling so every client-facing touchpoint carries your brand — not ours.
Everything your operation needs in one platform.
Automatic SIA licence checks via the official SIA register before each shift assignment, with expiry alerts 30 days in advance.
Define named shift roles with required credential types; the drag-and-drop scheduler warns instantly if an assigned guard lacks the correct licence.
Site-specific task checklists generated automatically at shift start, captured on the field staff app with completion timestamps.
Configurable check-in intervals per shift; missed check-ins trigger escalating alerts to the control room in real time.
Live view of all active sites, shift progress percentages, and outstanding lone worker check-ins — across your entire portfolio.
White-labelled portal for each client: live shift status, completed run sheets, incident reports, and invoicing — all self-service.
Automatic generation of compliance reports tied to each shift for insurance audits and client SLA reviews.
Android and iOS app for guards: shift briefings, run sheet task capture, incident logging, and lone worker check-ins — all offline-capable.
