Specification
SecureOptix, in full
SecureOptix is built specifically for UK security contractors running guarding and site contracts — not as a module inside a wider workforce or ERP suite.
Everything below is drawn from what's actually published on this site — SecureOptix's Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and product pages — rather than aspirational claims. Where SecureOptix doesn't yet publish or offer something, that's stated plainly rather than glossed over.
Scope
What SecureOptix covers
- Security contractors running static guarding and site-based contracts
- Multi-site operations, from a single contract upwards
- SIA licence numbers, sectors and expiry dates held per officer
- Screening and vetting evidence kept against the officer record
- Shift rostering and attendance, plus a shared compliance calendar
- Training certificates and refresher dates
- Incident capture — first report through to close-out
- Cross-site cover, attendance and incident reporting for clients
What it doesn't cover
- Payroll, invoicing or financial accounting
- Lone-worker devices, CCTV monitoring or alarm receiving
- Guard tour and patrol tracking hardware — SecureOptix records shifts and incidents; it doesn't replace NFC or GPS patrol systems
Features
Sites
A live register of every site you are contracted to cover.
- Site profile, client, and the post requirements that apply to it
- Switch between an all-sites view and a single site history
- Role-based visibility, so officers only see the sites they work
Rostering
Build shift rosters without a spreadsheet.
- Drag-and-drop shift editing with bulk shift patterns
- Permission-gated editing for supervisors and contract managers
- Relief and sub-contracted officers tracked alongside permanent staff
Attendance
Who booked on, who did not, and who covered.
- Book-on and book-off recorded against the rostered shift
- Late starts and no-shows surfaced while there is still time to cover
- Worked hours kept against the same record payroll is built from
Officers
One profile per officer, not six spreadsheets.
- Personal details, right-to-work evidence and contract history together
- Site assignments and current status visible at a glance
- Sensitive records restricted to the roles that need them
Licences & Screening
SIA licences and vetting, tracked before they expire.
- SIA licence number, sector and expiry held against each officer
- Alerts raised well before a licence lapses, not after
- Screening and vetting evidence kept in one place for audit
Training
Certificates and refreshers, with the dates that matter.
- Training records held against the officer, not a filing cabinet
- Refresher dates tracked automatically with advance warning
- Gaps visible per site, so you know who can work which post
Incidents
Incident reports handled properly, from first log to close-out.
- Structured capture on shift, while the detail is still fresh
- Photos, statements and outcomes attached to a single record
- Trends surfaced so a recurring problem at one site is not missed
Client Reporting
What the contract asks for, ready to send.
- Cover, attendance and incident roll-ups per client and per site
- Filter by site, date range or incident type in seconds
- Built from what officers already recorded — nothing re-keyed

A note on this page
This page describes SecureOptix as published on this site as of September 2026. It's written in the same level of detail as a formal service specification so that operators and commissioners evaluating SecureOptix alongside other platforms have a straight answer either way — including where the honest answer is "not currently offered." Get in touch if you need something confirmed in writing, or if a specific certification, SLA or integration is a hard requirement for your organisation: hello@secureoptix.co.uk.
