Job Management Built for Security Installers

Quote CCTV, alarm, and access control installations per point, run digital job cards with photos and serial numbers, keep certificates with the site they belong to, and invoice at handover.

Security installation is a trade of detail. A single estate job can mean dozens of cameras, readers, beams, and fence zones — each with a serial number, a position, a cable run, and a warranty. The install is only half the work: the client, the insurer, and the armed response company all want proof of what was fitted where, and the maintenance and callout work that follows depends on that record being findable a year later.

ExequtechOS keeps every site's installation record in one place: quotes broken down per point, job cards that capture the hardware and photos as it goes in, certificates attached to the site, and a full history that every later callout starts from.

The Problems Security Installers Bring Us

If any of these sound familiar, you're exactly who this platform was built for.

Quotes with dozens of line items

A CCTV or access control quote is a bill of materials — cameras, NVRs, readers, controllers, cable, conduit, labour per point. Building it by hand in a spreadsheet takes an evening, and the client who gets a clean quote first usually signs.

No record of what was installed where

Once the ceilings are closed, nobody remembers which camera model is on the north corner or which DVR channel it feeds. Every fault callout starts by rediscovering the install, and warranty claims have no serial numbers to stand on.

Certificates and compliance paperwork adrift

Electric fence certificates, installation handover documents, and PSIRA details are demanded by insurers, estates, and buyers years after the job. When they live in a filing cabinet or a technician's WhatsApp, producing one is an afternoon's search.

Multi-day installs across a team

A commercial or estate installation runs over days with several technicians on site. Without a shared job, the office cannot see what is fitted, what is still boxed in the van, and what has to be ordered before tomorrow.

Callouts, false alarms, and maintenance contracts

After the install comes the long tail — a beam misaligned by a gardener, a gate motor battery, a monthly maintenance visit. Tracking that work per site, and billing it, is where recurring revenue leaks away.

From Site Survey to Handover

Here is how a security installation runs when the quote, the install, and the site record live in one system:

1

Survey and quote per point

The technician walks the site with the client, notes camera positions and fence zones, and the office builds the quote from your saved hardware and labour prices — sent for online acceptance the same day.

2

Quote becomes a job, stock gets reserved

Accepted quotes convert into a job card with the full bill of materials. Hardware is allocated from the store or a van, and anything short is visible before the team leaves the yard.

3

The install, recorded as it goes in

Each technician logs the devices they fit, photographs positions and cable runs before ceilings close, records serial numbers, and clocks hours against the job — offline if the plant room or estate has no signal.

4

Commissioning and handover

Test results, the electric fence certificate, and handover photos attach to the site. The client signs on the technician's phone and receives the documents, and the invoice generates from the job card before the van leaves.

5

The site record works for years

Every later callout and maintenance visit opens with the original install in hand — models, serials, positions, certificates — so faults are found faster and warranty and insurance questions have answers.

The Full Platform, One Price

Everything above runs on ExequtechOS — clients, quoting, jobs, invoicing, inventory, team management, and reporting — with the Exequ-Jobs offline job card app included for every user at from R555 per user per month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from security installers evaluating ExequtechOS.

Can I quote CCTV, alarm, and access control jobs per point?

Yes. Save your hardware and labour prices once, then build quotes from them line by line — cameras, recorders, readers, beams, cable, and labour per point — and send them for online acceptance.

Can I record serial numbers and positions for installed hardware?

Yes. Technicians log each device, its serial number, and photos of its position on the job card as it goes in, so the installation record is built during the work rather than reconstructed afterwards.

Where do electric fence certificates and handover documents live?

Attached to the job and the client's site. When an insurer, estate, or new owner asks for a certificate years later, it is a lookup rather than a search through old phones and folders.

How does it handle multi-day installations with several technicians?

One job card is shared across the team. Each technician logs their own hours, hardware, and photos against it, and the office sees progress, stock used, and what still needs ordering in real time.

Does the app work on sites without signal?

Yes — Exequ-Jobs is offline-first. Everything on the job card works in basements, plant rooms, and remote sites, and syncs automatically when the technician is back in coverage.

What does it cost?

R777 per user per month (Standard) or R555 (Lite), everything included — all modules plus the mobile app, no hidden fees, cancel anytime. See the pricing page for storage tiers.
