Wrong! In these days of advanced communications and integration, CCTV can form an integral part of an organisation’s management information system. See how CCTV can really benefit the bottom line…
Your staff should know that you are using the best available technology to protect them in these times of ever increasing violent crime…
While this may be true for dedicated CCTV security systems, Teleprecision champions the application of the technology in a more diverse field. CCTV is a modest one-off capital cost and using it to its full potential will often yield payback within months…
It is true that CCTV has historically produced poor results and has been given a bad reputation. However, the next generation is here and it works… well…
Teleprecision - innovative CCTV solutions
Intuitive
Teleprecision’s truly unique touch-screen ‘point & click’ camera control technology makes CCTV monitoring completely intuitive, so encouraging its use. Such a system effectively eliminates training overheads allowing anyone to use the tool productively.
Reduced overheads
Teleprecision’s remotely-monitored CCTV systems reduce the need for manned guarding. CCTV facilities integrated with, for example, remote access control with two-way audio functionality can eliminate manned gatehouses. The single capital cost of a system is rapidly recovered by permanent savings in operational expenditure. ‘Payback’ periods are typically a few months.
Effectiveness
‘Event driven’ CCTV monitoring is more reliable than the human counterpart, even where the latter combines a guard and conventional cameras. Research shows that the average concentration span is roughly 18 minutes; operatives will then often miss screened actions. An event driven system uses alarms to alert the operator to an occurrence thus enhancing key site security.
Fast response
The ability to target a camera on a moving object precisely and rapidly radically improves the chances of capturing evidential-quality CCTV recordings. Teleprecision’s technology effortlessly overcomes the inherent latency problem experienced by traditional remote CCTV systems. This historic ineffectiveness has, to some extent, given CCTV a bad press: Teleprecision’s innovation changes perceptions.
Centralisation
CCTV enables relatively few control room staff to monitor many sites; a control room can be UK-central, and/or local where there is a defined need for some manned guarding. Remote surveillance can be triggered by abnormal activity, either during or outside working hours: or a live image stream can be delivered if appropriate. Continuous local recording, with remote playback, ensures an incident is never missed.
Safety
In these increasingly violent days employee protection is critical. Teleprecision’s systems can incorporate several employee protection devices, ranging from a body-worn ‘man down’ alarm to a handheld discreet wireless panic button. The devices enable the user to summon a suitable response from the control centre ranging from “keep an eye on me” to “armed robbery in progress, fast police response required”.
CCTV can also be a monitoring tool to record that staff conform to Health & Safety regulations – potentially powerful evidence in employee litigation.
