PHYSICAL GUARDING
The online patrol system was primarily developed for the purposes and use in security agencies and it entirely covers their needs. Nowadays, thanks to its advanced functions, it is used by cleaning agencies, facility management companies (maintenance) and companies with positions with increased risk of injury (lone worker monitoring).
TouchGuard is an original patrol system developed and operated by TTC TELSYS. It is a purely Czech application that is currently used in 8 countries worldwide. For the operation of the TouchGuard patrol system only a mobile phone with the Android operating system, NFC chips as control points and internet connection are necessary.
How the system works?
As the mobile phone has, unlike other, one-purpose systems, much wider possibilities of use, our application can be used, in addition to patrols, for sending of photographs, GPS coordinates, completion of forms, calls and sending of SMS only to authorised phone numbers, detecting the location of the phone thanks to accelerometer and consequently protecting the worker (lone workers monitoring system), etc. In addition, it is possible to use selected applications of third parties – various communicators, email client, application for connection to CCTV systems, etc.
Mobile device can be completely administered remotely. The user of the mobile terminal may use only what the administrator sets for the user through the web interface. For example, the authorisation of only selected functions of the system, calling, SMS. It is not possible to interfere in the telephone setting without the authorisation of the administrator, and it is not possible to use undesirable applications that do not relate to work.
It is possible to monitor online the course of work on the web interface in the browser (it is not necessary to install anything anywhere) or through PCO JABLONET PRO.
The output from the system takes the form of PDF or CSV reports that can be sent automatically after the end of the shift.
Key Functions of the System
- Patrols with automatic assessment – entirely transparent for end users. The report has the PDF format directly from the system and, as such, it is much more credible that a report in a spreadsheet that can be easily adjusted. The parameters of patrols can be set entirely individually.
- Checkpoints are contactless. In addition to NFC chips, it is possible to use the alternative with iBeacons that can be read from the distance of several meters without having to take the phone out of the pocket
- Forms are used for the reporting of unexpected events. In addition to a photograph from the place of the incident that contains the GPS coordinates of the place where it was taken, it is possible to write a comment, or select a category of the event based on which the system automatically informs only the persons responsible for a specific area.
- Attendance is used for the recording of arrivals/departures of all workers in a building. Using the function of shifts planning it is possible to monitor automatically that a required number of persons is present in the building.
- KPI – Key Performance Indicators are used for an automatic assessment of the number of events. For example, the number of patrols per day, number of errors per month, start of the patrol in
a certain time slot. It allows to automate the activities that had to be usually counted manually. - Logs (journal) contains all events from the building that can be commented on. It will consequently form a comprehensive report on the activities in the building which can replace the paper operations book.
