Revolutionizing Campus Safety with Securitas Technology: A Case Study

 
The transformation of a campus security system is not an easy task. This kind of project demands more than just technical prowess; it requires a deep understanding of the institution’s culture, communication norms, and operational processes. This was the task at hand when Securitas Technology was hired to provide a modern, secure solution for an educational institution’s aging building automation systems.

Partnering for Success

Choosing a technology partner for such an upgrade is a critical decision. It’s not just about solving a technological problem—it’s about finding someone who can immerse themselves in the institution’s culture and understand how things work. For this particular institution, the priority was to find a partner who wouldn’t just install a new system but adapt it to their unique circumstances.

Essentially, it wasn’t just about replacing an old system with a new one—rather they sought a partner who could go step-for-step with their existing practices and adjust the solution accordingly. They found such a partner in Securitas Technology.

A Seamless Transition

Changing a security system can be disruptive, especially on a large campus with a multitude of access points. However, with Securitas Technology’s professional approach, the transition from the antiquated system to a modern access control system was made easy.

This transition wasn’t an isolated task. It was part of a comprehensive service package that Securitas Technology offered, which ranged from access control systems to different services across the campus.

Guardians of the Campus

Securitas Technology did not stop at merely installing a new access control system; they embraced the role of active partners in ensuring the safety of the students, faculty, staff, and infrastructure. This partnership continues till date, affirming their commitment to the institution and its people.

Embracing a system upgrade is about more than just embracing new technology; it’s about embracing change. Through this partnership, Securitas Technology has shown that with the right support, change can be more than just manageable—it can be empowering, ensuring a safer, more secure future for all.
