Systems integration
The work that makes separate systems behave as one, and it does not have to be systems we installed. If you are running three vendors’ platforms that will not speak to each other, this is a job you can buy on its own.
What it does
Event and alarm routing
A door forced at 2am puts the camera on the operator’s screen without anyone switching platform, because the event is routed between the systems rather than read off both of them.
One operating position
An operator learns one interface instead of five, because the systems present through a single position rather than a desk of separate clients.
Workflow and automation
The routine response happens the same way every time, because the sequence is written into the system rather than into a binder nobody opens.
On systems already in place
Working with what you have
Three vendors’ systems can be made to talk without replacing any of them, which is usually the difference between a project and a capital request.
Assessment first
You find out what will and will not integrate before you commit to it, from a written assessment of the platforms you already run.
- Physical securitySee what happened and prove it, because video, access and alarms land on one timeline you can search by door and by time.
- Network and managed ITOne compromised device stays one compromised device, because operational traffic is separated from office traffic by written policy.
- Radio and communicationsA lone worker can call for help from the far end of the site, because coverage was modelled at design and then measured on foot.
- Audio visual and pagingThe meeting starts on time, because the room is a standard kit repeated across sites and it is checked before you walk in.
Let’s talk about your project.
Early concept, active specification, out to tender, or a system already in place. Wherever you are in the process, our team can help.
