Factory CCTV case study: Surveillance objectives & requirements
As a leading commercial CCTV company, Safeguard Systems was approached by the Managing Director of a regional cake factory. They were keen to address their pressing security concerns.
The goal was to enhance internal and external surveillance measures effectively. Internally, we focused on mitigating health and safety risks, ensuring staff productivity, and bolstering intruder detection.
Additionally, from an external surveillance point of view, they needed a system to combat threats from thieves, vandals, and break-ins.
Read this factory CCTV case study to see how we tailored a solution, safeguarding this business against various commercial security threats and risks.
Site survey & system recommendations
In summary, throughout the rest of this factory CCTV system case study, you’ll see the process we followed from initial site survey to installation.
Upon receiving the cake factory’s security request, our team promptly conducted an on-site visit to initiate the process and identify key security vulnerabilities and requirements.
To address the internal surveillance needs, we proposed strategically positioned IP dome cameras offering coverage of the factory floor, kitchens, and other areas.
Lastly, we recognised the lack of external protection and recommended surveillance cameras equipped with advanced day and night vision capabilities.
In summary, we recommended multiple bullet CCTV cameras to effectively detect and deter potential threats.
The customer was satisfied with our proposed solution and instructed Safeguard Systems to install and commission the system.
The surveillance system installation
Our dedicated team of commercial CCTV installers completed the project on time, especially ensuring minimal operational disruption.
Altogether, the system comprises seven 4MP CCTV Dome Cameras for comprehensive internal surveillance. And, three 4MP CCTV Bullet Cameras are strategically positioned for external monitoring.
Furthermore, to provide peace of mind, we recommended, and the customer approved a complimentary one-year parts and labour warranty.
As a result, this robust solution effectively addresses all identified security objectives, safeguarding the business, especially against the previously mentioned threats.
Lastly, this industrial CCTV system ensures a secure environment for seamless business operations.
