Automated Compliance & SIA Checks

Daily SIA licence verification, expiry alerts, and built-in safeguards stop non-compliant rostering. Stay audit-ready, protect contracts, and cut the hidden costs of compliance errors.

Automated Compliance & SIA Checks
1. SIA Licence Checks in the App

Verify SIA licences automatically through the Arez mobile app. Guards can’t be rostered without valid credentials, ensuring your team remains compliant and audit-ready at all times.

2. AI-Based Compliance Anomalies Detection & Alerts

Arez uses AI to flag risks such as expired licences, missing BS7858 vetting, or unusual shift patterns. Real-time alerts help managers act before compliance gaps turn into costly liabilities.

3. Global & Local Standards Built In

Whether it’s BS7858 in the UK, PSARA in the US, or industry regulations in Australia and New Zealand, Arez keeps you aligned with local compliance frameworks automatically.

4. Automated Safeguards & Compliance Dashboard

Non-compliant staff can’t be scheduled — Arez applies hard stops and highlights issues on a live dashboard. Managers get a single source of truth to protect contracts, reduce admin, and keep operations audit-ready.

Payroll & Invoicing Automation

Link shifts and attendance directly into payroll and invoicing. Slash admin hours, eliminate costly errors, and speed up cash flow — because if you’re not using Arez, you’re leaving money on the table.

Payroll & Invoicing Automation
1. Seamless Payroll Integration

All approved shifts and timesheets flow directly into payroll. Arez reduces manual data entry, eliminates duplicate records, and ensures guards and subcontractors are paid accurately and on time.

2. Automated Invoicing from Attendance

Invoices are generated automatically from verified hours and completed jobs. This speeds up billing cycles, prevents costly errors, and keeps cash flow moving in the right direction.

3. Compliance-Linked Payments

Payments are tied to SIA, BS7858, and subcontractor compliance checks. Non-compliant staff can’t trigger payroll or invoicing, protecting your business from financial risk and liability.

4. Real-Time Financial Dashboard

Track wages, billing, and profit margins in one place. Arez gives you instant visibility over costs and revenue, helping you forecast more accurately and protect your bottom line.

Accurate Time & Attendance

Arez goes beyond simple clock-ins. GPS-enabled check-ins, facial recognition, and activity monitoring confirm the right guard is on-site and working as scheduled. Auto geo-fencing alerts ensure shifts are completed in the right place, at the right time, and in the right way — eliminating payroll disputes and saving money every pay cycle.

Accurate Time & Attendance
1. GPS & Geofenced Clock-Ins

Officers/Guards can only clock in when they’re physically on-site, thanks to GPS validation and auto geofencing. This guarantees accurate attendance records and prevents false check-ins.

2. Facial Recognition & Identity Verification

Arez uses facial recognition to confirm the right guard is on shift. No more “buddy punching” — just verified staff, compliant records, and total peace of mind for every client.

3. Real-Time Activity Monitoring

Track guard movements and key task completions during shifts. From patrol checkpoints to incident logs, Arez provides live proof of presence and full visibility of on-site activity.

4. Instant Alerts & Payroll Integration

If a guard misses a check-in, leaves a site, or fails compliance checks, Arez sends instant alerts. All hours feed directly into digital timesheets and payroll, ensuring accurate payments and reducing costly errors.

Master Vendor Mode with MSP Control

Arez gives large security companies the power to run their own supplier network with full MSP-style control. From BS7858 checks and supplier compliance to routing shifts through your partner network, every process stays in your hands. By unifying rostering, subcontractor management, and payroll in one platform, Arez eliminates cost leakage, safeguards compliance, and ensures every contract delivers maximum profit.

Master Vendor Mode with MSP Control
1. Supplier Onboarding & BS7858 Compliance

Arez vets every subcontractor against BS7858 and local standards before they join your network. Keep suppliers compliant, audit-ready, and fully aligned with client expectations.

2. Automated Shift Routing to Partner Network

Assign shifts seamlessly across your in-house team and subcontractor partners. Arez ensures the right guard, with the right credentials, is sent to the right site — saving hours of admin and reducing risk.

3. Cost Control & Revenue Protection

Track subcontractor costs in real time and link hours directly to payroll and invoicing. By cutting out hidden mark-ups and duplicate payments, Arez protects your margins and boosts profitability.

4. Centralised Supplier Performance Dashboard

Monitor reliability, compliance, and delivery across your supplier network from a single screen. With full visibility, you can reward top performers, fix issues early, and maintain service quality across every contract.

Smarter Rostering & Workforce Planning

Avoid fatigue, eliminate rota conflicts, and optimise coverage with intelligent scheduling. The result: fewer missed shifts, reduced overtime costs, and more efficient workforce utilisation.

Smarter Rostering & Workforce Planning
1. GPS-Enabled Clock-Ins

Guards clock in and out from the Arez mobile app with GPS validation, giving you accurate time records and eliminating “buddy punching” or false attendance claims

2. Geofenced Shift Control

Set up geofenced sites so staff can only check in when physically present. This ensures reliable attendance tracking and protects contracts with proof of presence.

3. Digital Timesheets & Payroll Integration

All worked hours flow straight into digital timesheets, automatically linked to payroll. Reduce admin time, cut costly errors, and ensure staff are paid accurately, every time.

4. Live Attendance Dashboard

See who’s on-site, late, or missing in real time. Arez gives managers instant visibility across all sites, helping to keep shifts covered and clients assured.
