the public
and private spaces of the served properties. They can be driven
online from OneFacility, or from a local database manager without
recourse to the website.
The OneFacility Website
OneFacility is a secure centralized website that is national in
scope. With it, a building’s tenants, the property office
and the security and engineering departments can communicate and
conduct their daily transactions online. Currently, these transactions,
including those that deal with the public and private space security
functions, tend to be handled quite inefficiently, via traditional
letter, fax & e-mail methods.
A great benefit
of OneFacility is that specified individuals manage specific information
in the databases. This partitioning of responsibilities is achieved
through "User Permissions". It does away with paper trails
of requests that must be followed-up by the property office, and
routine transcription of requests from paper into multiple databases.
OneFacility maintains the most complete and always accurate list
of all occupants of a property. This is because it is directly maintained
by the tenant administrators. Such a database serves many useful
purposes including the generation of employee photo IDs, the maintenance
of fire & life safety assignments or emergency numbers, even
the reporting of such ancillary information as individual parking
rights.

together and speeds the generation, processing and completion of
all sorts of daily transactions. It is truely a new way of managing
properties.
Touchcom
Security Systems
Touchcom designs, installs and supports fully integrated security
systems of cutting edge technology that are scalable to meet the
specific needs of the served properties. Each individual component
of a Touchcom system provides a powerful solution to today’s
security challenges and is prepared to meet the security demands
of tomorrow.
A major point
of uniqueness is that these systems can be managed on-line via OneFacility.
This gives everybody better, time-saving, more efficient control
of the building’s security paradigm. The supported functions
are:
The Touchcom
security suite of products is fully scalable: modules can be purchased
and installed individually or in any combination to tailor the system’s
coverage and capability: for example, a system can initially include
just the directory function, or just visitor admissions, or just
access control. In time it can grow seamlessly to include more functions.
The
Benefits of Integration
It is possible to implement OneFacility in properties that have
their own security systems or, conversely, to install a Touchcom
security system independently of OneFacility. However, the greater
benefits are achieved when OneFacility and Touchcom security systems
are installed to work hand-in-hand to serve a building community.
Just take the
example of a person’s record being deleted from the OneFacility
databases: it only takes a few mouse clicks to implement, but the
consequences are many:
 |
The person’s
security card becomes invalid in the access system that guards
the private spaces. |
 |
The person’s
security card becomes invalid in the access system that guards
the public areas of the property. |
 |
The person’s
ability to obtain a temporary access pass at the lobby desk
is withdrawn. |
 |
The person’s
visitor admission requests are cleared from the system, automatically. |
 |
The person’s
name is cleared from the interactive lobby directories. |
 |
The person’s
name is removed from the fire and life safety rolls. |
In any other
system, these actions would require visiting several unrelated and
redundant databases – a process that consumes valuable administrative
time and is prone to error.
You can rely
on Touchcom to design, install and support a unique state-of–the
art and efficient security system for your property’s public
and/or private spaces.
Summary
Touchcom's OneFacility solution is unique in that it is gauged specifically
towards the security and management of the public and private spaces
of large properties. Furthermore, Touchcom solutions include market-specific
components that are not found in competing general-use systems.
The integration of all these components into a single on-line system
for your property is an industry first that can save big dollars
for tenants and property managers alike, at installation time, and
forever thereafter.
