Construction site security systems help identify criminals

Construction site security systems and CCTV surveillance solutions have successfully managed to help identify and capture several suspects in the act of stealing construction equipment in Houston, Texas, a local news report can reveal.

The cameras can be fitted with technology that triggers them to direct employees to monitor them when there is any type of motion. The dispatcher is then able to pick up the phone and call police.

More and more companies are tapping into a demand for identity technologies to secure construction sites, specifically where there’s a need to track employee time and control access to sites. The demand is stronger in places like the United Kingdom, where strict laws govern construction site access. But inroads are also being made in the U.S. as companies that manage with multiple, remote work forces struggle to avoid wage fraud, theft and other problems.

Designing and deploying construction site security systems is a particularly difficult task, since entry points are often transitional unlike a normal building’s doors and entrances. Sites are typically outdoors, which can create lighting problems for biometric imaging and recognition software.

Tensor – your partner of choice for Construction Site Security

The Tensor Rapid Deployment Asset Protection System (RDAPS)is the UK’s first and only Secured by Design accredited self-sustained security surveillance system designed to prevent crime and gather evidence in remote sites and trouble hotspots.

The RDAPS includes a high-definition camera system of evidential quality and a self-contained high-definition NVR platform with full video analytics capabilities, fully integrated 2-way audio and alarms, capable of delivering extensive remote location, building site and major events security.

Featuring a rugged, weather and vandal-proof design, RDAPS has been designed to protect assets located in vulnerable or remote locations, where current constraints exist due to a lack of power and/or communications. The system is equipped with a Solar/Wind Turbine charged battery system, as well as multiple wireless communication platforms (Wi-Fi, 3G/4G, etc.).

The Tensor Rapid Deployment Asset Protection System is totally transportable and can be re-deployed as frequently as required on multiple sites – in under 40 minutes. Our unique purpose built tower provides a platform which transports the system from site to site and when in ‘deployed-mode’ forms a self-contained secure working platform, functioning as a fully integrated remote video system.
