Security services · Saudi Arabia
Running a manned guarding or security services company in Saudi Arabia means billing dozens of client sites on different rates, shift patterns and contract terms — while every invoice has to clear FATOORAH e-invoicing rules and land correctly on your VAT return. Tallium AI puts contract invoicing, recurring billing, equipment stock and VAT-ready accounting in one app, with unlimited users so your operations manager, accountant and site supervisors all work from the same numbers. One flat price in USD, billed monthly, cancel anytime.

Key takeaways
Duty rosters live in one spreadsheet, overtime in a WhatsApp thread and the client's approved headcount in a signed contract nobody can find. By the time you invoice, you are reconstructing a month of coverage from memory, and under-billed hours are quietly written off every single cycle.
Security contracts in Saudi Arabia are usually B2B, so your invoices need the right buyer VAT number, correct VAT treatment and a compliant electronic format. Word templates and hand-typed PDFs create rejected or disputed invoices, and fixing them weeks later delays payment from clients who already pay on long terms.
Most guarding revenue is the same base amount every month, plus variables — extra shifts, event cover, replacement guards, vehicle patrols. Re-keying 40 near-identical invoices burns days of admin time and is exactly where typos, missed variations and duplicate invoice numbers creep in.
You buy uniforms, boots, torches, radios, CCTV spares and vehicle consumables in bulk, then issue them across sites and rotating staff. Without stock records you cannot tell what is genuinely deployed, what is lost, or what you should be recharging to a client — so equipment cost silently eats the margin on every contract.
Set up every client site with its own rate, shift type and billing rules, then build an invoice from the actual hours and headcount you delivered. Day rate, night rate, weekend cover, supervisor uplift and one-off event shifts all sit as separate lines, so the client sees exactly what they are paying for and disputes get settled in minutes instead of weeks.
Invoices capture your client's VAT number and apply the correct VAT treatment as you raise them, so the numbers flowing into your VAT return come from real documents rather than a month-end reconstruction. Tallium AI keeps the underlying records tidy and exportable for your accountant — confirm your current FATOORAH e-invoicing obligations and wave timing with ZATCA or a local tax professional.
Save each contract once and let the monthly base invoice generate on schedule, then add the variable lines before you send. AI-assisted categorisation files the invoice, the payment and the related costs to the right accounts automatically, so your books stay current without a bookkeeping day at the end of every month.
Log equipment purchases into inventory, then issue stock out to sites and see live quantities on hand at any moment. You know what was deployed where, what needs replacing before a contract renewal, and which items are billable to the client — turning a leaking cost centre into a recoverable line on the invoice.
Contract and recurring invoices for guarding, patrols, event cover and equipment recharges, with per-site rates and client VAT numbers captured on every document.
Full double-entry books behind the invoices — receivables by client, payroll and subcontractor costs, vehicle and fuel expenses, and profit per contract.
VAT applied at the point of invoicing and tracked through to your VAT return figures, with records ready to hand to your accountant or ZATCA.
Live stock on uniforms, radios, torches, CCTV spares and consumables, issued out by site so nothing walks off the books unnoticed.
See which contracts actually make money after guard cost, which clients pay late, and where equipment spend is climbing — with AI flagging the changes worth acting on.
