Mobile Patrols
Armour Security Deployment Mobile Patrols are a cost-effective and visible deterrent when full-time security is not practical. Each patrol contract is tailored to your requirements, from external patrols at random times to complete internal patrols, but always with the aim of creating the most visible deterrent to any would-be troublemakers or opportunists and ensuring peace of mind that all is secure.
To enhance our security solution, we implement an award winning security patrol monitoring application. Our solution is designed to improve efficiency, communication and offers complete transparency of mobile guard activity and patrols undertaken. Most importantly it provides real-time reporting on the mobile guard?s activity at anytime.
The system uses an NFC enabled mobile phone and a set of NFC tags, to mark key patrol points. By touching the phone against a tag the patrol information is transmitted in real-time to a web based application where you can access the patrol information at any time from an internet enabled computer, anywhere in the world.
Key benefits
Our solution will provide you with the following benefits over traditional legacy systems.
- Complete transparency for all security patrols ensuring they are complying with the minimum service level agreements set, thereby mitigating any associated business risk.
- Audio, Photographic and checklist reports for all key information and systems, providing immediate access to essential information and improving communication.

- Secure patrol audits ensuring data integrity giving complete confidence in all patrol times and events undertaken.
- Reduction in carbon footprint in support of your environmental policies by removing legacy paper based recording/reporting methods.

Lone Worker Risk
Do any of your staff un lock or lock up your property alone ? The HSE suggests the following definition "Lone workers are those who work by themselves without close or direct supervision.
What is a lone worker?
Anybody who works alone is classed as a lone worker. Lone workers can include:
- Self-employed people.
- Employees who work away from their business' base. This occurs in a wide range of business activities such as transport, painting and decorating and electrical and other repair work.
- People working outside normal hours - such as factory security staff or a night cleaner in an office block.
- Mobile workers - such as salespeople - who may be on their own for long periods of their working day.
- People who work from home.
- Small businesses often use lone workers. For example, a shop might be staffed by just one worker at any given time.
Do any of your staff attend alarm activations alone? The HSE suggests the following definition "Lone workers are those who work by themselves without close or direct supervision. They are found in a wide variety of situations." This definition does not mean that an individual has to work an entire shift to qualify as a Lone Worker. It can apply to short periods in a shift, say 10 to 15 minutes.
Remove the risks to your staff un locking your premises alone and eliminate the lone worker risks caused by asking un lock alone. As Directors of the company, you can be held liable for any out of hours accidents that occur.
Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMA)
Prior to 6 April 2008, it was possible for a corporate entity, such as a company, to be prosecuted for a wide range of criminal offences, including the common law offence of gross negligence manslaughter. However, in order for the company to be guilty of the offence, it was also necessary for a senior individual who could be said to embody the company (also known as a 'controlling mind') to be guilty of the offence, this was known as the identification principle.
On the 6 April 2008, the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMA) came into force throughout the UK. In England and Wales and Northern Ireland, the new offence is called corporate manslaughter, and in Scotland it is called corporate homicide.
Alarm Response
Our alarm response aims to respond within 20 minutes. Our mobile Patrol Officer will attend the premises and assess the cause of alarm activation. The security officer will carry out an external site patrol. All occurrences will be recorded in the report logbook. An alarm response sheet will be emailed to you the next working day. The Security Officer will contact the police in case of a break in or any damage caused at the premises.

However, in order for the company to be guilty of the offence, it was also necessary for a senior individual who could be said to embody the company (also known as a 'controlling mind') to be guilty of the offence, this was known as the identification principle.
On the 6 April 2008, the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMA) came into force throughout the UK. In England and Wales and Northern Ireland, the new offence is called corporate manslaughter, and in Scotland it is called corporate homicide.
Where any of the conduct or events alleged to constitute the offence occurred before 6 April, the pre-existing common law will apply. Therefore, the Act will only apply to deaths where the conduct or harm, leading to the death, occurs on or after 6 April.
Individuals will not be able to bring a private prosecution for the new offence without the consent of the DPP. This is unlike the position with allegations of gross negligence manslaughter against individuals where no such consent is required.
The new offence was created to provide a means of accountability for very serious management failings across the organisation. The original intention was to overcome the problems at common law of 'identification' and 'aggregation' (the prosecution could not aggregate the failings of a number of individuals) in relation to incorporated bodies. The offence is now considerably wider in scope than simply overcoming these two problems and it now includes liability for organisations which could never previously be prosecuted for manslaughter. (See "The organisation below").
The new offence is intended to work in conjunction with other forms of accountability such as gross negligent manslaughter for individuals and other health and safety legislation.
