FOR SECURITY PROCUREMENT
Ask the right question
When you contract services or software, you have the power to drive meaningful change. Ask your provider: "Are you using a Supply Nation registered business?" — it's a simple question that creates a ripple effect of Indigenous economic participation throughout your supply chain.
Ask your provider:
"Does your security operations platform come from a Supply Nation registered business? If not — why not?"
- Strengthens your own RAP commitments through supply chain
- Drives Indigenous procurement without changing your vendor
- Supports the broader First Nations business ecosystem
- Aligns with government and corporate ESG expectations

How GuardCore works
From setup to live operations in under a day.
Set up your sites & guards
Add your client sites with addresses and geofences. Invite guards via SMS or email — they get a secure onboarding link, no app install needed.
Build rosters & patrol tours
Drag-and-drop shifts onto the roster. Create guard tour templates with ordered checkpoints — QR codes, NFC tags, or GPS-verified locations.
Guards clock in & patrol
Guards open the web app on any phone. GPS-verified clock in, live checkpoint scanning, incident reporting, and one-tap panic if needed.
Monitor in real time
Watch every guard on the live map. Get instant alerts for missed checkpoints, late arrivals, or panic activations. Respond from anywhere.
Approve timesheets & report
GPS-verified timesheets auto-generate from clock data. Review, approve, and export to Xero or MYOB. Send automated reports to clients.

What operations managers say about GuardCore.
"GuardCore replaced three separate systems we were using. The live map alone has saved us from two serious incidents — we could see exactly where our guards were and respond immediately."
"The client portal has completely changed how we communicate with clients. They can see live patrol reports and incidents without calling us. Our renewal rate has gone up significantly."
"Onboarding new guards used to take days of paperwork. Now they get a link, complete the wizard on their phone, and they're ready to go. The compliance tracking is a game changer for licence renewals."
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before getting started.
A platform that keeps pace with your sector
Every Yarning Crescent product evolves continuously. We commit to bi-annual major releases, immediate critical updates, and transparent communication — so your organisation is never caught off guard and always operating on world best practice software.
Bi-Annual Feature Updates
Every product receives two major releases per year, aligned to world best practice and sector feedback. Each release advances capability, compliance alignment, and user experience.
Critical Updates — Immediate
Security patches, regulatory changes (NDIS, Privacy Act, Fair Work), and critical bug fixes are deployed as soon as they are ready — never held for a scheduled release.
Proactive Impact Notifications
You will always know what is changing and why. Release notes, impact summaries, and action items are delivered to your nominated contacts before every update goes live.
World Best Practice Standard
Our update cadence is benchmarked against leading sector platforms globally. Updates are tested against NDIS Practice Standards, Privacy Act obligations, and Aboriginal governance frameworks before release.
Subscribed customers receive all updates at no additional cost.
Major bi-annual releases, critical patches, and compliance updates are included in every paid plan. Impact notifications are sent to your nominated admin contacts before each release. Free-tier users receive critical security and compliance updates automatically.
