Badge Software for Government Facilities
Although government facilities are unique from other types of buildings they also share many of the same concerns as commercial buildings when it comes to professionally and securely managing visitors.

Today's article will examine some of the issues that government facilities have when using visitor software for guest sign in.

Problem: What do government facilities need to consider when dealing with visitors and using a lobby system to electronically check in guests.

Solution:  In today's world, lobby security is obviously a concern at any government building. That's why government organizations frequently require that all visitors to their facilities be identified with visitor badges.

But there's a lot more to visitor management in government facilities than simply providing a visitor badge for all guests.

As a leading choice for government organizations, EasyLobby is used at many Federal, State and Local government agencies, including many military and defense installations around the world, to improve security and enhance the professionalism of the facility.

Our badge ID software is able to report exactly who is in the facility, what their purpose is and who they visited.

Most importantly, our visitor system supports a number of important government standards, including the ability to:
  • Provide real-time, online screening of the Government Denied Party Databases which consists of over 50 databases.
  • Read and process Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Cards in support of Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12).
  • Scan and process the Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) cards with an optical scan.
  • Read and process CAC cards which contain a 2D bar code.
With the addition of internal watch lists that any government organization can include in their visitor tracking software, guarding against unwanted visitors becomes an automatic part of the visitor registration process.

If you are responsible for security or facility management at a government or military installation, and want to learn more about our visitor management software, register for a free, personalized online web conference.

In about 30 minutes we will demonstrate the features of our system that are most pertinent to your government facility.
