The Jones Group utilizes Brivo as it expands access control management
Jones utilizes Brivo to manage approximately 225 doors, which will increase as other buildings are brought on-line. In New York City alone, the company relies on Brivo to secure 25 floors in several different buildings.
Brian David, Security Manager for The Jones Group, said: “We chose Brivo because we wanted a remote, web-based system that would enable us to control multiple locations at once. One of our goals is to unite all of our brands by creating a strong and secure global badge, a consistent form of identification throughout the company. Unlike a proprietary system, the technology in Brivo’s web-based system allows us to minimize the number of personnel we need devoted to security, and in turn enables us to be a more efficient and secure company.”
“Installation of Brivo technology has resulted in substantial savings and has given The Jones Group the ability to run multiple reports to view all activity in the company’s facilities, and to look for patterns which may suggest something is amiss,” commented John Szczygiel, Brivo EVP. “The staff also utilizes the system’s alert feature to notify them about temperature fluctuations, power failures, and other critical events for which they want immediate information.”
“The Brivo system is extremely convenient and makes constant access possible,” Brian David added. “Our goal is one system and one screen, and with Brivo we will be able to accomplish that.”
