Local display technology provider, PVision, has concluded an agreement with one of the South Africa’s foremost security and risk management groups, 2RM Security, to furnish a new Johannesburg command centre with advanced video technology and applications.
The partnership, which saw PVision implement twenty four ultra narrow bezel 46-inch LCD displays in a 12 x 2 configuration supported by a Galaxy video wall processor for multiple video layering, is the first of its kind in South Africa and aims to equip both private and governmental organisations with an internationally competitive security solution.
Significantly, 2RM Security’s “Zero Centre” is Africa’s only known forensic command and control centre which incorporates recently dimilitarised risk management technology to provide a comprehensive suite of controls.
Furthermore, Zero Centre stands alone as the only SABS approved security solution of this nature in South Africa, earning ISO 9001 certification upon launch in April 2013.
As the beating heart of the command and control centre, PVision’s 12 x 2 video configuration enables 2RM Security’s project manager team access to a variety of information as incidents develop. An interactive touchscreen display also allows users to swiftly cycle through information whilst the Galaxy processor layers information behind it.
According to PVision director, David Ross, realising a project of this nature requires vision and a dedication to delivering business value.
“It’s wonderful to encounter a customer with vision. Without it, 2RM Security would not have had the foresight to recognise the business benefit associated with an implementation of this nature.
“The video wall situated within ‘Zero Centre’ is both aesthetically pleasing and practically enabled as a security tool. This means that 2RM Security’s Project Management team can swiftly access vital information in an environment that is conducive to structure.”
2RM Security CEO, Hansie Prinsloo, agrees.
“During the conceptualisation process we knew what we wanted to achieve. Today ‘Zero Centre’ offers our clients an integrated forensic and risk management solution which is unique to South Africa. Without PVision’s video technology solution we would be unable to toggle data at a rapid pace. In an emergency situation, this is absolutely vital.”
