The challenge

Möllegården in Lund is a specialist off-site facility, situated between two world leading research facilities —MAX IV and ESS—for small size workshops and team meetings.

The biggest challenge for SVS AB team was that every time it was used, one person from the team had to drive out to Möllegården from their HQ in Lund city to manually open rooms and allow visitors to access it. In addition to this inefficient way of working, it was also a significant challenge keeping track of all the keys, tags, and codes in circulation due to transport drivers using the facility as a resting place during periods of bad weather or during their breaks.

With only a small team to do all of this manually, it meant that offering Möllegården as a conference space became both time-consuming and uneconomical. A further issue was ensuring security since access keys were often lost and codes were not changed. This in turn meant they could be shared and reused by unauthorized visitors.

The solution

Without the need to change the existing access and alarm system, Precise Access was installed at the main door and set to open for all registered users during working hours. This solution eliminated the need for access keys, tags, and codes, as users could now use facial recognition via Precise Access instead. The solution came with the added benefit of higher security levels at the facility, as well as reducing time spent by SVS employees on access management.
