Solution for a Logistics Center

Logistics centers are centralized hubs that manage the efficient storage, handling, and movement of goods to ensure fast, accurate, and cost-effective material flows, even around the clock, seven days a week.

The internal and external environments of a logistics center pose significant challenges for the security solution, in which automation plays a key role in managing and controlling incoming and outgoing traffic as well as the related authorization process. Inside the facility, there are areas with different security levels due to business requirements, and some of these areas may be used to store various hazardous materials. From an operational perspective, it is essential to manage different sensor and security systems through a single user interface instead of six or seven separate ones. Automation automatically monitors data generated by sensors and various systems in real time and, based on that data, carries out the necessary predefined actions.

Challenges

• Multiple security-related systems, each with its own user interface – consumes a lot of resources
• Lack of a unified real-time and automatic situational overview
• Reporting is manual, limited in scope, consists of individual spreadsheets
• Different user groups have distinct needs → a need for flexible access rights
• Must be easy to use anytime and anywhere
• The system must be horizontally and vertically scalable

Solution: WYS Platform

• Gate automation + access control + vehicle and personnel permit management + fire and intrusion alarm systems + video surveillance → combined into a single integrated system
• Automated vehicle access management 24/7
• Self-service permit applications, renewals, and safety training
• Automatic real-time situational overview (incl. number of people in facilities)
• A real-time System and device registry is generated and updated automatically
• Technical and operational monitoring
• Automated BI reporting tailored to operational needs
• Operated through a single user interface, anytime and anywhere

Benefits

• Investigation-related tasks now take only one fifth of the time, thanks to a unified user interface
• Automated response according to event severity classification
• Clear technical and operational overview for all user roles
• Real-time, automated detection of anomalies with quick and easy drill-down
• The flow of inbound and outbound traffic improved – yard area traffic became safer
• Ready‑made platform for system expansion and new sites
• Overall operating costs decreased significantly thanks to automation and ease of operation, while the service life of existing systems was extended by several years
