Retail sector urgently requires efficient security solutions

Mexico. Among the security issues approved by the National Council of Public Security that are intended to touch this 2016, is the issue of the new methodology for evaluation of criminal and personnel databases, as well as the technical standardization of Video Surveillance Systems for Public Security.
  • The Retail market is one of the most affected, due to the large amounts of cash that are handled.  The most recurrent problems are: 
  • Claims without recorded evidence
  • Lack of operator attention
  • Rotation of prevention staff
  • Sabotage of investment systems
  • Poor management of surveillance resources
  • Annual losses due to decline at the Retail level

key Business Process Solutions offers solutions aimed at different markets, which are based on intelligent security and telecommunications systems, which adapt to the different demands of each sector.

The solution to these problems lies in using a camera with a decentralized system, which replaces several functions (panic button, movement, audio, impact) combined in a single software, a single brain. 

For example, in the Retail sector you can have under "control" security from the access of personnel, vehicle control, customer service, merchandise control, surveillance of ATM's and boxes, integrated into the same system. These types of systems expand the vision and the margin of action in the face of different catastrophes in this sector such as: 

  • -Access to clients: Monitor and monitor suspicious acts (fast movements, hidden people, conglomerates, etc.) How? Reduction of cameras thanks to the 360° vision of the system, counting of people, alarm per stay.
  • -Entry of personnel: Take previous action before assaults by more than one person, since many systems reduce the vision in accesses up to 50%. How? Video intercoms with 180° view range, electronic locks, predefined automatic alerts.
  • -Pharmacy area: Theft of drugs costs or restricted or conditioned access to the public, which can easily be taken by workers or civilians without leaving evidence. How? reduction of common chambers by 360° vision cameras (1 chamber replaces up to 6 cameras), control of lockers for the use of controlled drugs (which indicate time of opening and closing).
  • -Corridors (sales floor): losses, accidents, fights, etc. How? Coverage of corridors in "L", voice, Heat Map, counting of people, all in the same chamber. 
  • -Areas of boxes: assaults, losses, theft of money by the same employee, person-to-person mishaps. How? better coverage area, panic button, automatic alerting, two-way audio, people counting  , all controlled by the same software.
  • -Parking: accidents, exit/entry of assailants, unauthorized personnel, evidence in case of incidents, etc. How? identification of vehicles and people, reduction of cameras (moonlight), license plate recognition system and license plate reading (more accurate vehicle control with alert of reported plates).  
  • -ATMs: Assaults, self-theft, vandalism, accidents in general (fires, floods, etc.) How? Full view in ATM areas, automatic alerts per stay. 

The high quality that these intelligent systems offer to entrepreneurs is that they give a great economic advantage. A camera that integrates this system can replace 4 cameras of the competition, which represents a decrease in the amount of equipment installed, as well as the savings in the infrastructure of placement of each of them. On the other hand, it does not cause maintenance costs, since the updates, applications, analytics included in the cameras (heat mapping, sound, movement), monitoring software, models, product tests to customers and training for use that this entire system entails are included in the final cost.
