Benefits of card access control system from security point of view.
by Vantage Security vantage securityAt a time, when security emerges out
as the major concerns among businesses of all types and sizes, it is necessary
to have a full-proof system in place. Considering this, access control system
is taken as a powerful tool to improve business efficiency and benefit an
organization in various ways. Let’s find out how and why.
Improve payroll efficiency
Modern card
access control system in Dubai can supply data in a format that is readily
compatible with payroll packages, so the tedious and error-prone process of
entering staff attendance data manually can be completely eliminated. Even in
moderately sized organizations, this leads to useful savings and efficiency
improvements in the payroll department and, for larger organizations, the
savings can be very substantial.
Enhance premises security
Now let’s look at what an access
control system can do inside the building. It can, of course, be used to limit
access to specific areas, ensuring that only authorized staff can enter them.
Particularly in multiple occupancy buildings, it is often also useful to tie
the operation of lifts into the access control system, so that users can only
send the lifts to the floors occupied by the company for which they work.
It’s worth understanding that access
control can also take into account the time of day and day of the week. This
means that staff who have access to a building or an office during normal
working hours can be barred at other times. Conversely, cleaning staff can be
allowed access only after the normal working day is finished.
Some
systems can go further by, for example, providing an effective solution to the
perennial problem of bookings for meeting rooms and similar shared facilities,
making it possible for authorized users to book the room or facility on-line.
Then, at the appropriate time – but not at other times – their access control
badge or card will allow entry. Arguments over bookings and wasted
administrative time controlling the bookings manually are eliminated.
Cost
savings
Many
organizations these days are using access control passes to control printing
and photocopying – before they can make a copy or print a document, the pass
holder has to present their pass to the machine. This not only means that unauthorized
usage is eliminated, but also that records can easily be kept of the volume of
copying and printing carried out by individual users. This is a big incentive
to print only what is necessary, thereby saving costs, protecting the
environment. It also ensures the
security of confidential documents.
Cashless
vending services can also be implemented using the same access control passes.
This avoids the expense and inconvenience of having to issue separate passes,
and also means that when a pass needs to be issued, cancelled or updated, the
job only has to be done once. Again, this can lead to big savings in
administrative time and costs.
Ease
in car parking
Clearly modern card
access control system in Dubai has a lot to offer, but when it comes to
installing such a system, there is always one element that we have not
considered. This is availability of budget or lack of it. Before assuming that
there is insufficient money available to install a system, it is worth looking
again at the features and facilities discussed in this article, many of which
lead directly to cost savings.
