Notice Title

DInfoCom/0281 - Provision of SISYS Gold License Support Contract

Notice Description

An electronic Site Access Management (SAM) system called SISYS (Strategic Imaging Systems) at circa 100 sites across UK and Germany. It's an endorsed service that is considered fit for purpose for providing temporary visitor and vehicle passes and permanent staff plastic ID cards. It enables a quick electronic based method to book in/out and manage temporary visitors, vehicles and permanent staff on a site; this is particularly beneficial with the larger sites with high visitor and permanent staff numbers and enhances site access security over manual paper based methods. An electronic SAMS system also enables records to be stored which assists with processing regular visitors to a site.
