Success Story: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

•For new student registration,integrated printing andlamination saves approximately 45 seconds on every card.
•Across 200 students, Butler saves 2.5 hours, allowing staff handling registration to complete the process sooner.

Longer ETAs on HID access cards
2014-09-04  |  Image Sales Shipping Room

Due to structural changes at HID, all Card production is now located in Texas. With that said, expect a longer ETA when ordering HID access cards. That means that all cards we need to order directly from HID will take around 2 weeks to be delivered. Remember: we can still program small amounts of cards in-house and we still have the generic cards available right here in the bay area. Ask your sales representative for more information.

Visitor Access Control Procedures Should Be Reviewed Regularly
by Paul Kazlauskas (Visitor Pass Solutions Blog)

 

Does your company have a procedure to "sign-in" visitors who come to your facility?
Most companies do. Unfortunately, the visitor control procedures used by many companies have evolved over a period of years and are sometimes inconsistent and ineffective. It is recommended that the manager responsible for security periodically review the procedures its company uses to sign-in and control visitors.
