For security services and control centers, managing incidents, malfunctions, and customer reports is often an enormous challenge. Manual processes, incomplete documentation, and a lack of real-time oversight lead to inefficiencies, delays, and potential security risks. Incident tracking is inconsistent, and customer reports remain incomplete—causing media disruptions that hamper the overall workflow. But those chaotic days are over.
This article shows how COREDINATE® takes your security operations from chaos to control: The integrated guard patrol and ticketing system captures every checkpoint via NFC, beacon, or GPS, logs incidents in seconds using photos, audio, or text, and automatically assigns tasks. The central cockpit gives dispatchers real-time visibility of team locations, key movements, and incident priorities. A digital logbook, complete reports, and automated customer confirmations cut paperwork, boost compliance, and make results measurable—from the first patrol to the KPI dashboard.
For many security companies, incident management is the crux of operations. Reports range from minor issues to critical alarms. Every report must be accurately recorded, assessed, and tracked—otherwise, gaps and liability risks emerge.
COREDINATE® puts an end to the chaos. With the mobile app, guards document malfunctions or alarms on-site using photos or text; NFC, beacon, or GPS scans automatically link everything to time, location, and object. Instead of radio calls or scattered emails, all reports land centrally in the dashboard. Dispatchers see priorities, statuses, and responsible staff in real time and assign tasks with a single click.
Clear permissions ensure that each customer message reaches the right person immediately, while standardized forms create a tamper-proof log compliant with BSI recommendations.
The result: less chaos, faster response, and verifiable quality.
A ticketing system is more than a task list: As the central cockpit, it consolidates all reports from your security team, prioritizes them in real time, and assigns them automatically. The COREDINATE system is purpose-built for the complex and time-sensitive workflows in the security sector.
It logs not only technical faults, but also patrol findings, alarm reports, customer complaints, and key and access logs—and intelligently links them. Planning and building control rooms must meet strict standards that emphasize the high demands placed on these systems [2]. A specialized system like COREDINATE® builds trust by establishing transparent, reliable, and structured processes for every operation in security services. COREDINATE® integrates communication channels, responsibilities, and escalation paths into a single user-friendly interface—greatly improving control and response speed.
A ticketing system decides automatically when an incident must be escalated and which steps follow.
The escalation matrix follows best practices like NIST SP 800-61, adapted for physical security: each level has fixed response times and responsibilities—ensuring every incident gets the attention it deserves.
In security operations, full documentation is non-negotiable. Every malfunction, alarm, and response must be audit-proof—so that facts, not hearsay, decide accountability. A ticketing system is the black box that fulfills this documentation requirement—no exceptions.
The checklist for airtight logging starts with an exact timestamp for the event and each follow-up action, includes detailed incident descriptions and locations with GPS coordinates, plus objects and areas. Everyone involved—reporter, handler, affected parties—and all actions with results are logged.
It doesn’t stop there. All communication—calls, emails, radio traffic—is automatically added to the ticket. Photos, videos, voice notes, and documents are attached as irrefutable evidence.
In a security control center, every second counts. Real-time documentation is essential to react quickly and accurately to developments. A ticketing system enables immediate logging and transmission of information, making the status of each incident and every assigned task transparent in real time.
A typical real-time incident workflow within a control center looks like this: a field staff member logs an incident using a mobile app. This report becomes instantly visible in the control center, a ticket is generated, and the responsible team member is assigned. They can update the status, add more details, and coordinate communication with the field team in real time. Technologies like mobile apps with built-in sensors (GPS, camera) or integrations with building management systems enable this seamless real-time data capture. These systems follow strict standards for alarm handling and live monitoring.
The vision of a “central cockpit for security operations” is to consolidate all relevant information into one intuitive user interface. This cockpit serves as the command hub, offering a “holistic operational overview” that enhances the overall “security posture.” It aggregates data from various sources and presents it in a clear, actionable format.
Such a unified security dashboard offers huge advantages, including real-time insight into the status of all open tickets, ongoing operations, and patrols. It delivers key performance indicators (KPIs) and summary reports on efficiency and effectiveness, plus precise location data with live positions of field staff and incident sites on a map. It also acts as a communications hub with direct channels to field units.
