KMTA APP

KMTA leverages an advanced application

KMTA’s innovative technology facilitates seamless communication between officers and management while offering clients real-time reporting. For federal customers, this technology provides live data on shift management, reporting, timekeeping, and accountability, ensuring compliance with performance work statements and streamlining invoicing.
Workforce Management & Accountability
  • Employees clock in using GPS, NFC, or QR code checkpoints, ensuring accurate timekeeping and attendance tracking. GPS-based geofencing enhances accountability by setting virtual boundaries and triggering alerts when employees leave designated areas. Shift management tools provide real-time visibility into employee locations, notifications, and payroll reports, streamlining operations and compliance.
Operations & Security Oversight
  • Mobile scans at checkpoints create a permanent record of officer tours, reinforcing accountability. The system tracks shifts, patrols, and schedules while enabling real-time incident reporting for accidents, altercations, or other critical events, ensuring quick response and resolution.
Client Access & Reporting
  • The Customer Portal provides real-time access to guard locations, patrol tracking, and shift scheduling. Clients can generate and download patrol, checkpoint, incident, and invoice reports, ensuring transparency and data-driven security management.
