Don't post a guard whose card expired last week.

Every guard carries a state-issued unarmed guard card, and armed guards add a firearms permit that has to stay current through periodic requalification, usually annual, on top of the base license. A scheduler assigning posts across a dozen client sites has no reliable way to know which guard's card and permit are current for which site.

The way most firms find out something lapsed is expensive: a state licensing board audit, a client site's own compliance check pulling guard cards before letting a contractor on the property, or, worst of all, an incident involving a guard whose license or firearms qualification had already lapsed. By then it's a contract at risk, not a reminder someone missed.

Expiry radar for guard cards and firearms quals

Unarmed guard cards, armed-security permits, and firearms requalifications each carry their own renewal date. CertFleet watches all of them and reminds the guard by text and email weeks ahead of any post assignment that depends on it.

Magic-link uploads between posts

A guard renews a card or requalifies on the range between shifts, texts a photo through a magic link, and it's filed. No login needed for a workforce spread across sites, not sitting at a desk.

OCR extraction

License numbers, issuing state, permit class, and expiry dates are read automatically off the uploaded card. An office admin confirms the read instead of typing it in.

Review workflows

Every credential is approved or rejected by a person, with a reason and a timestamp. A guard posted to an armed site always has a permit someone has actually checked.

E-signatures

Use-of-force policies and site-specific post orders get signed from a phone and filed with the rest of the guard's record.

Audit-ready exports

When a client's compliance team or a state licensing board asks for proof, generate a tamper-evident PDF binder for the guards assigned to a site instead of pulling license copies by hand.
