A telecommunications giant with 150 corporate office locations around the world deployed IXM TITAN for touchless access control. The Hyderabad, India location is part of the company’s technology hub in APAC with nearly 4,500 employees working out of the office park in various engineering-related roles. The size of this workforce posed a great challenge requiring all staff to be on-site to uphold its productivity and customer support standards.
A total of 4,500 individuals congregating in one office building posed a significant challenge for balancing productivity benchmarks with employee health and safety. To improve efficiency without compromising staff well-being, the company met with the local system integrator, Intek, to find a fast-throughput, high-accuracy solution for providing staff with a touchless method of access control on a daily basis. Previously, this telecommunications giant had used cards for access control, and they were interested in upgrading to a higher-security, health-conscious access control system.
Invixium Provides a Unique Solution to Replace Cards with Touchless Access
Intek proposed IXM TITAN because the Invixium solution is known for its fast-throughput capabilities and rugged construction that perfectly match the needs of a large workforce. The numerous benefits of installing IXM TITAN include fast throughput (20-25 people per minute) to limit lobby congestion and touchless face recognition, so staff do not have to handle shared surfaces to come to work. With 25 devices installed, the company has begun its transition from simple card access to modern, future-proofed touchless access control. Following the success of this first installation, the corporation ordered 10 more devices for expansion to their Hyderabad, Chennai, and Bangalore offices. They also plan to install 40 additional devices at employee access doors.
The benefits of using touchless access control include:
- Fast Face Recognition: Touchless access like face recognition along with mask detection (enable on/off) provides staff and management with the highest level of confidence. Management can decide to turn on mask detection when needed.
- Smooth Transition from Cards to Touchless Access: IXM TITAN’s multi-factor capabilities via face recognition and card reading enable a smooth transition from cards to touchless biometrics, offering high flexibility for the staff members using these devices for office access.
- Enhanced Security From Biometric Authentication: Biometrics are a highly secure method of protecting enterprises because they cannot be lost, traded, or shared among enrolled users or stolen or copied by nefarious individuals in the same way that cards can.
