Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies supplies Interflex software to Bullring, Birmingham
A complete overhaul of the Contractor Permit to Work system has been rolled out at Bullring, Birmingham, using Interflex software supplied by Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies.

The Interflex 6020 Contractor Permit to Work and Visitor Administration system replaces the existing and archaic full paper trail system by integrating the existing paper forms and procedures into an electronic software format. The Interflex package was chosen following six months of search and testing by the customer who required an easy to use, reliable system which is fully compliant and totally auditable. Transferring to a software platform has not only saved time, allowing for quick and easy registration of companies and personnel with regard to issuing passes and permits to work, but has greatly increased all aspects of security, monitoring and efficiency.

One of the advantages of the Interflex system is its facility to absorb existing paper based ‘permit' systems and convert them to a digital format. This expands the system allowing it to focus on monitoring of permits and alarming when necessary as well as to integrate fully into the Interflex 6020 system for Visitor administration. This means the system is able to alert both the control centre and site security should a contractor be overrunning on allocated time of the permit or has failed to report back and return their permit when required.

The IF-6020 Management system is perfect for this type of complex application. Its unique versatility and adaptability reduces the daily effort required for manual processing and corrective actions. It can take control of Contractors, Visitors & Staff and has the functionality of Access Control, Time & Attendance, Roistering, Visitor Management, Muster Evacuation and other services required by their customers.
