Accountability for Your Operation
Without proper incident data collection and management tools in place, you will remain in the dark on the effectiveness of your overall program orits individual moving parts. For example, a security guard force that is not electronically reporting all of its actions, activities, and influence removes your ability to accurately strategize, and requires tedious manual data collection.
There is immense potential to tap into the vast volume of data generated by the frontline. The only way to refine your strategy is to be informed.
Measured Deliverables
In the security field, having tangible proof of what you did is invaluable, internally and externally. Traditionally, it has been very difficult to provide quantitative information on what security staff is doing on the site while on duty. Security workforce management tools like TrackTik seek to change that by empowering teams with data-driven insights.
Auditable Information
Data on your business operations, in the form of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and business intelligence, is a surefire method to validate the efficiency of your operations. Having easy access to auditable data allows your team to prove your position simply and at any time! In addition to this, having valuable insights on incidents also empowers your team to make decisions that will mitigate risk in the long term, keeping the site as safe as possible.
Accountability with Management
Without access to measurable information, you can’t be empowered to streamline your strategy — which all help reinforce your position within the organization. TrackTik enables the measurement of KPIs and in-depth Incident Reporting, which will help corporate security teams validate their work when push comes to shove.
Reporting
The end-to-end platform facilitates data collection at all stages of the security operation, from the frontline all the way to the back office. This empowers you to build a full report on your entire operations for management validation. Make your official board meetings more valuable by offering data that is easy-to-view and understand.
Reputation
Reputation is incredibly valuable to anyorganization. The unfortunate truth is that if security or safety incidents occur on company-owned property, it may have an impact on the public’s opinion of your business. Having good visibility and staff that are accountable is a surefire way to stop incidents before they happen, and in the event that they do, to treat them quickly and effectively.
Trends and Opportunities
Furthermore, TrackTik can help you identify trends and opportunities within the security strategy, and allow you to deliver actionable insights with analytics on incidents. For example, you can determine hotspot locations for incidents and vouch for the appropriate allocation of resources. As a result, you reduce overall risk.
Amping your security strategy up with the use of data will allow you and your team to open up lines of communication, as well as boost your ability to deliver valuable insights to management. The power of quantitative data surrounding your operations helps drive accountability and satisfaction for all parties involved within your security processes.
