The scope of activity and access control includes everything from simple employee project task time accounting, ID Card activated premises control, fingerprint and/or retina scan access control, to real time personnel location tracking and reporting. Interfaces include surveillance imaging control and storage integration as well as interfaces/controls for egress detection equipment both passive; e.g. RF-ID with motion detection, periphery seals, or thermal detection, etc and active e.g., Card Readers, Bio-Metric Readers, etc.

Enforcing the correct access of individuals across facilities and accounting for personnel activities within multiple work and security contexts requires a sophisticated level of configurability.

"Activity" represents the collection and reporting of all accountable personnel time with regard to project, task, time quantity, location, and disposition. This spans the time from task initiation, suspension, resumption, to completion.

"Access Control" represents all activities and information associated with accounting for all locations requiring restricted egress, permitting personnel egress, providing personnel identification, accounting for personnel egress, accounting for and enforcing personnel escorts, to securing legal agreement from personnel prior to permitting egress. The resulting time/information matrix yields the "In Transit Visibility" customers expect and accountability security demands.
