Owl Security Solutions contacted Scorchsoft with an idea to develop a mobile application that streamlines the process of logging visitor entries at various events, such as movie shootings and photo sessions, using QR code technology. The goal is to replace the current manual system of managing visitor entries with a more efficient, accurate, and user-friendly solution.
Our client faced significant challenges with their manual system, which relied heavily on Excel spreadsheets. This method was time-consuming, prone to errors, and inefficient for security personnel who needed to validate visitor entries quickly and accurately.
Scorchsoft developed a bespoke mobile application using React Native, ensuring compatibility with iOS and Android devices. The app generates unique QR codes for visitors, which security personnel can scan for validation and access. The application also includes offline functionality to ensure continuous operation without an internet connection.
I hired Scorchsoft to develop an app for my business. As someone new to development, I found their team to be incredibly helpful and patient, guiding me through each step from the initial idea to the final release.The app is slick and highly responsive. I highly recommend Scorchsoft and plan to work with them again for future projects and enhancements to the current app.

QR Code Scanning
Security personnel can scan visitor QR codes when they are either online or offline. This significantly reduces entry validation time and ensures accurate visitor tracking. This feature eliminates the manual entry process, reducing errors and improving efficiency.
User Management
The backend allows the creation of various user types, including admins, security personnel, and regular users, manually or via spreadsheet upload. This facilitates easy management of user roles and access levels, ensuring that only authorised personnel can access sensitive areas. Thus, the cumbersome spreadsheet management is replaced with a streamlined digital process, saving users time and delivering a much-enhanced user experience.
Production Day Management
Administrators can create and manage production days, assign users, and sync data across devices. This enables precise scheduling and management of visitor access for specific events, preventing scheduling conflicts and ensuring all relevant personnel know their assignments.
Data Synchronisation
Security users can sync their devices daily to ensure they have the latest data. Offline functionality ensures that the previous day's data is cleared and updated seamlessly. This ensures data accuracy and availability even in areas with limited connectivity, preventing data loss and discrepancies due to manual syncing errors.
Visitor Information
Security personnel can view detailed visitor information, including personal, job, and medical details, providing comprehensive information for enhanced security checks. This reduces the risk of security breaches by ensuring all relevant visitor information is readily accessible.
Offline Functionality
Security users can operate the app in offline mode, with data synchronisation occurring once they are back online. This ensures the app remains functional even in areas with poor connectivity, preventing disruptions in the check-in process due to internet connectivity issues.
Scorchsoft's innovative solution provided Owl Security Solutions with a powerful tool to manage event security more effectively. The mobile application leveraged the latest technologies to deliver a robust, user-friendly experience, aligning with Scorchsoft's vision of using technology to enhance business productivity and enrich people's lives.
