Case Study: Greater Philadelphia Search and Rescue improves ID card security and durability with HID Global Fargo printers

Greater Philadelphia Search and Rescue - Customer Case Study

Greater Philadelphia Search and Rescue (GPSAR), a volunteer non-profit organization, faced a challenge in securing its rescue operations from unauthorized personnel. Their previous method of creating ID cards by hand was neither durable enough for harsh conditions nor professional enough for quick visual identification on chaotic scenes. They turned to HID Global and implemented the Fargo Persona C30 card printer to create a more reliable and professional identification system.

The solution from HID Global provided GPSAR with a printer known for its ease of use, reliability, and availability of supplies, which streamlined the process of creating durable, on-the-spot ID cards. The results include enhanced operational security by preventing unauthorized access to rescue sites and the ability to quickly produce professional identification for both human team members and their rescue dogs. This crucial upgrade helps GPSAR maintain its mission of saving lives where every second counts.
