Team Management
Coordinate teams across multiple locations and time zones with real-time communication, assignments, and instant coordination tools.
Security Detail & EP Team Management, in One Platform
Running a security detail means keeping the right people in the right place at the right time — across shifts, sites, and fast-changing conditions. AdvanceWork replaces the group chats, spreadsheets, and radio check-ins most executive protection teams still rely on with a single operational picture: who's assigned, who's on shift, where every agent is, and what's happening right now. Whether you run a single close-protection detail or coordinate multiple teams across cities, your leads get real-time visibility and your agents get clear assignments and instant communication.

Enhanced Team Performance
Managing a Security Detail, End to End
From the first assignment to the after-action review, AdvanceWork keeps your detail organized at every stage of the operation.
Assign and brief the detail
Build the roster for each mission and assign roles — detail leader, advance, driver, residential, and close-protection agents — then push briefings so everyone deploys with the same plan. This connects directly to your mission planning and advances management workflows.
Coordinate live in the field
Once the detail is moving, encrypted team chat, priority alerts, and live GPS keep everyone synchronized as the principal moves from point to point. It works hand in hand with real-time alerts and routes planning.
Keep continuous coverage
Schedule shifts and rotations with clean handoffs so protection never lapses across a 24/7 detail, and capture a complete record of every operation through reporting and after-action reviews.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a security detail?
A security detail is the team of protection agents assigned to keep a specific person (the principal) safe — typically a detail leader, close-protection agents, an advance agent, and drivers. The size and structure of a detail scale with the threat level, the principal's schedule, and the environments they move through.
How do you manage an executive protection team?
Effective EP team management comes down to four things: clear assignments and roles, reliable scheduling and shift coverage, secure real-time communication, and live visibility of where every agent is. AdvanceWork brings all four into one platform so the detail leader isn't stitching together group chats, spreadsheets, and radios.
Can AdvanceWork coordinate multiple details across locations?
Yes. Teams can run several details at once across different cities or sites, each with its own roster, schedule, and live map, while leadership keeps a consolidated view of every active operation.
Does it work in the field with limited connectivity?
AdvanceWork is built for field conditions, with mobile-first workflows and offline-tolerant behavior so agents can keep working through spotty coverage and sync when a connection returns.
How is agent location tracked?
Agent positions are shown on a live map using GPS, with geofencing for key locations and automated location updates — scoped to on-duty operational use so the team has situational awareness without unnecessary tracking.
