subject: Paper Free Alarm Response Docket [print this page] Changes caused by a rise in global temperatures are the main effect of global warming. With these changes in the eco-system, people are also becoming more environmentally aware. Because of this, everyone seems to be doing their share in saving mother earth.
Paperwork is not only time consuming but also not so cost-effective. Not only that, the use of paper means that people are continuously cutting down trees to produce paper then recycling papers again to produce more paper.
In the Security Industry, Security Officers use alarm response dockets and Patrol Notepads for their reporting system. In these alarm and patrol incident report books, information such as, job details and descriptions are all entered in paper and all based on the information provided by the security officer.
With Guard Buddy, the security firm can do away with the costly outdated paper system. This stand alone mobile security officers app not only gets everything saved to the device but is environmentally friendly and very cost effective.
With your regular alarm response docket, a photocopier is needed for multiple copies and a security officer needs a pen to enter the information manually. Not only this, but descriptions about job scenes are all based on the security officers descriptive abilities.
guard buddy on the other hand has the ability to store up to 5 pictures which can be included in the PDF report with a short description. If multiple copies are needed, it can be emailed directly from the app doing away with the old fashioned photocopier and scanner for photo uploads.
During a security alarm response, a security officer can be sent on-site to investigate. Whether there is an intrusion or not, this security officer needs to provide a report using an alarm response docket. But what if the security officer is new or the address is in some remote location?
This is where another useful feature of the Guard Buddy App comes in, the Get Directions feature. Once the Site Details information field has been filled, the Get Directions button will open up Google Maps within the app which will show the security officers position at street level going through to the new job location.
