Always Know Exactly Who’s On Your Site

A sign-in sheet gives you a name and maybe a time that person arrived on your site. It doesn’t tell you whether that person is a trained, approved contractor who’s cleared to be in a hazardous work area. Novara Visitor Management closes that gap, verifying compliance status the moment someone checks in and keeping a live, site-wide picture of who’s actually on premises. It’s available as an add-on to Novara’s Contractor Risk Management platform, using the same compliance data you already manage there.

Why Use Novara Visitor Management?

A name on a clipboard doesn’t confirm whether that person is cleared to be onsite

General visitor-management tools have no visibility into contractor training, prequalification, or approval status

Emergency headcounts take too long without a live, site-wide dashboard

Forgotten checkouts distort your records and hide true onsite duration

How It Works

1. Set up your check-in points.

Your admins create check-in points for each site.

2. Gate Guard checks people in.

A Gate Guard searches for the contractor, employee, or visitor using the web dashboard or mobile app. They can search by name or organization and see their compliance status before confirming.

3. Track who’s onsite, in real time.

The live dashboard shows current headcount, total headcount, and average duration by contractor.

4. Catch overstays automatically.

Anyone checked in for 12+ hours without checking out is automatically flagged and prompted via push notification.

5. Check out just as easily.

Individually or in bulk, it’s easy to check out using web or mobile.

6. Export what you need.

History and reporting can be exported to CSV and filtered by date, contractor organization, location, and visitor type.

Built In, Not Bolted On Visitor Management is a module of the same Novara Contractor Risk Management platform that handles your contractor qualification and training today.

No new vendor, no new login, and no new data model. Just your existing compliance data enforced at the point of physical access.

Questions about Visitor Management

It verifies a contractor’s compliance status — training, certifications, and site approval — the moment they arrive onsite, instead of relying on a paper sign-in sheet.

General visitor-management tools log a name and a time. Novara Visitor Management checks that name against your existing contractor training and approval records, so a Gate Guard knows before check-in whether someone is cleared to be there.

No. Visitor Management is a module inside Novara’s Contractor Risk Management platform, so it runs on the compliance data you already manage — no new login, no new vendor.

Anyone checked in 12 or more hours without checking out is flagged automatically, and the Gate Guard gets a push notification — so overstays don’t quietly distort your onsite records.
