- 6Change control, acceptance and handover
Why integrate
One screen for every camera, door and fence
Most sites run cameras, doors and alarms as separate systems watched by separate people. An ISMS joins them, so one alarm brings up the right camera, the right procedure and the right record at the same moment.
Separate systems
- Cameras record, but few are watched live
- Door and visitor logs kept in a separate system
- Fence alarms that arrive without a picture
- Incident reports written up by hand afterwards
One ISMS
- An alarm opens the nearest camera automatically
- Every entry and exit in one searchable log
- Each fence zone linked to the cameras that cover it
- The incident record builds itself as the response happens
System scope
Five subsystems, one command centre
Select a subsystem to see what it covers.
CCTV and video analytics
See every entrance, corridor and boundary, live and recorded.
- IP cameras for indoor, outdoor and low-light areas
- Video management with recording, playback and evidence export
- Live and remote viewing for authorised staff
- Analytics for line crossing, intrusion zones, loitering and left objects
- Number-plate recognition at vehicle gates
- Video wall in the command centre
Incident response
How an incident is handled
From the first alarm to the final report, every step happens in the same system.
01
Sensor triggers
A fence zone or door reports an alarm.
02
Camera opens
The nearest camera appears on the video wall.
03
Operator verifies
Real threat or false alarm, confirmed on screen.
04
Procedure guides
The response steps for that alarm type appear.
05
Guard dispatched
The nearest patrol is sent with the exact location.
06
Logged and reported
Video, actions and outcome saved to the incident record.
Delivery
From site survey to a staffed control room
Seven stages from the first site survey to ongoing support. On the Parliament project, our role covered planning, supervision, testing and handover.
- 1
Risk assessment and site survey
Threats, vulnerable points and how people and vehicles move through the site.
- 2
Design
Camera placement, access zones, perimeter zones and the command centre layout.
- 3
Specification and tendering
Technical specifications and evaluation, aligned to national procurement law for public bodies.
- 4
Supervised installation
Contractors managed against the design, schedule and quality plan.
- 5
Testing and commissioning
Every device, alarm and integration tested before acceptance.
- 6
Training and procedures
Operators trained on the system and the response procedures.
- 7
Maintenance and support
Preventive maintenance and a support agreement after handover.
Compliance and users
Built to be lawful, used every day
Data protection
CCTV footage and biometric records are personal data under Kenya’s Data Protection Act 2019 and its equivalents across the region. We set retention periods, viewing rights, access logs and signage.
Public procurement
For public institutions, specifications, tendering and contract supervision follow the national procurement law, such as PPADA 2015 in Kenya.
Who uses it

Control room operators
Alarms, cameras and procedures on one screen.
Facilities manager
Device health, maintenance tickets and access schedules.
ICT team
A segmented, monitored network for security devices.
Management
