Case Study: Mobile Shutdown Systems achieves unified, cost-efficient safety monitoring with Genetec Security Center

Genetec Security Center helps mobile monitoring system safeguard major industrial projects while reducing costs

Mobile Shutdown Systems provides temporary onsite security and safety monitoring for high‑risk industrial turnarounds and shutdowns, where narrow entryways and confined spaces make manual guard-based monitoring costly and error-prone. To replace rudimentary logging and reduce people on site, they partnered with integrator Access Innovation and deployed Genetec’s unified platform—Security Center (with Omnicast and Synergis)—as the backbone of their VISICS mobile monitoring service.

Genetec’s solution unified video, access control, intercom and custom gas‑detection feeds so operators receive badge-triggered video pop‑ups, real‑time oxygen alarms, and two‑way field communications via the Sipelia module, while Synergis enables fast cardholder imports, zone lockdowns and people‑counting. The result: quicker operator response, reduced reliance on onsite guards, faster system configuration, instant occupant counts and automated time‑and‑attendance reporting for accurate invoicing and improved safety—demonstrating measurable operational and cost benefits from Genetec’s platform.
