Imagine an industrial facility buzzing with activity, employees hustling to meet deadlines, and visitors, vendors, and business partners coming in and out. While all communication related to visitor invitations were still conducted through emails and phone calls.
As the number of security breaches and potential threats continues to increase day by day, we need to take immediate actions.
From the protection of valuable assets and safeguarding sensitive information to ****ensuring the safety of both employees and visitors.
As not all users are tech-savvy and have varying levels of technical expertise, the system should empower them to perform their tasks effectively.
To make sure my team and I were on the same page, I helped to build alignment and encouraged a more collaborative and efficient way of working together.
My main goal was to develop an MVP for security personnel in the form of an access control system. ****Similar to an ERP system, this solution allows hosts to create and manage visitor invitations, and monitor who, when, and for what purpose visits the plant. The system had to be easy-to-use while maintaining a high level of security and operational efficiency.
