Customer Needs
Ralston wanted to replace its current fire and security systems. The company needed a system that would:
Allow staff to use one badge to access buildings and use with time clocks.
Monitor building and grounds 24/7.
Be easy for the technical and non-technical staff to manage.
Comply with all necessary fire and security codes and procedures.
SOLUTION
After removing the current systems, CEC implemented a new access control platform and fire and security system, as well as a versatile IP video surveillance solution that enabled Ralston to manage its life safety and security systems. This new security management and fire life safety solution enables Ralston to:
Manage intrusion detection for external entrances with access control for all buildings and any interior secured locations.
Have an easy-to-manage, cost-effective security solution that uses a multi-purpose card for multiple systems.
Monitor the building 24/7 and comply with fire, life safety, and security procedures.
Manage recording and security surveillance from remote locations, and provide necessary incident reporting.
Use an application that extends easily to all parts of the enterprise with an appropriate degree of security at the door.
Expand when necessary to include additional IP cameras and access control and fire safety additions.
