Typical Observations
Typical Observations Most facilities have Security Systems installed. Most facilities have more than 1 type of system. Intrusion Detection Video Surveillance System Access Control / Key Card System EtcG.. Most facilities have adequate protection / significant investment in the amount of devices and equipment installed that comprise each system: Contacts, Motion Sensor, Glassbreak, etcg Cameras Card readers
Typical Observations Obsolete Equipment Hardware Core components (DVRs, Matrix, Door Panels) no longer supported by Manufacturer Software Server & Client Applications Impact: New software is often compatible with old hardware New hardware in often not compatible with old software Vendor can provide limited support only. Replacements parts unavailable Significant downtime should a major system failure occur
Typical Observations Lack of IT Standards If using IP based systems, the correct hardware is key, Its configuration is paramount. Impact: Single points of failure Poor system performance
Typical Observations Improper Environmental Controls Dust
Typical Observations Improper Environmental Controls continued((. Heat
Typical Observations Poor Workmanship
Typical Observations Access Control Systems Old Cards / Formats Integrity of Existing Card Technology & Transmission Formats Standard Prox Susceptible to Cloning Google Search Results for Prox Card Cloner
Typical Observations Video Surveillance Systems Improper Camera Placement & Setup
Typical Observations Video Surveillance Systems Improper Camera Placement & Setup INCORRECT CORRECT
Typical Observations Video Surveillance Systems Improper Camera Placement & Setup Analog Camera Digital Camera
Typical Observations Underutilized Features / Lack of System Integration Camera display on alarm. Camera Record / Increase frame rate on alarm. Outdated/ No System Documentation As built/ Record drawings. System manuals.
Recommended Best Practices
Recommended Best Practices Maximised Utilization of Existing Infrastructure before investing in new technologies. 1. Proper Camera Placement & Setup 2. System Integration / Automation Understand Current Market Trends 1. Investment in new, current, or old technology 2. IP Based Systems
Recommended Best Practices Understand Current Market Trends continued%. New System Considerations 1. Non-Proprietary vs. Proprietary 1. Available / supported by multiple Vendors 2. Available from a specific Vendor 2. Manufacturing Location 1. Canada, 2. USA, or 3. Overseas 3. System Capacity 1. Is future expansion anticipated? 2. 25% spare?
Recommended Best Practices Understand Current Market Trends continued%. 4. Manufacturers Support 1. Hardware & Software Support 2. Sunset / end of life notice
Recommended Best Practices Manage Expectations Against New System Capabilities 1. Avoid asking for something that does not exist. Insist on Manufacturer supported features and Integration. 3. Leading Edge not Bleeding Edge magic does not exist in security ***high risk of being unreliable and may lead to even greater expense*** 2. Beware of Video Analytic Tools, they should be used a Secondary Means of Detection only.
Recommended Best Practices Vendor / Integrator Considerations 1. Communicate to the Vendor all technical, operational, and managerial scope of the project. 1. Written Specifications & Drawings 1. Vendor Experience 1. References 2. Specific Project Experience 2. Vendor Support 1. Ability to respond (local, 24/7 coverage) 2. Replacement Parts
Recommended Best Practices Insist on System Documentation Shop drawings 1. Manufacturer specification sheet for each new piece of equipment. 2. Equipment to be installed (including the part number and the manufacturer) 3. Detailed System Architecture Diagrams 4. Equipment Wiring diagrams 5. Testing and commissioning plan 6. Training Course Outline and Materials Sample Shop Drawing Package 1.pdf
Recommended Best Practices Documentation Continued%% 2. As Built: 1. Final Revision Shop Drawings 2. Software 1. Installed software list (with versions listed) 2. Operating System CDs 3. Allocation CDs 4. Registrations 3. Manuals 1. Manufacturer Equipment Manuals 2. Manufacturer Operation Manuals 3. Manufacturer Service Manuals 4. Equipment Cabinet Keys
Recommended Best Practices Documentation Continued%% 4. Warranties 1. Vendor s Warranties 2. Manufacturer s Warranties 5. Commissioning Forms 1. Field Checklist
