Case Study: House by Urban Splash achieves secure, future-proof surveillance and quality assurance with Verkada

How Top Home Developer Uses Verkada for Environment Safety and Quality Assurance

House by Urban Splash, an award‑winning UK modular‑home developer, faced an outdated legacy CCTV system that created gaps in factory coverage, poor image quality, frequent camera dropouts and cumbersome on‑prem NVR/DVR access. HSQE Manager Hannah Whitmore needed secure remote access, future‑proofed technology and high‑quality video to support safety, environment and quality assurance work, so the team evaluated Verkada’s security cameras and cloud platform (Command).

Verkada deployed plug‑and‑play PoE cameras with on‑camera encrypted SSD storage and the Command cloud software, eliminating NVRs and enabling secure remote monitoring (TLS 1.2), granular user permissions and unlimited archiving. The solution delivered 4K video, average bandwidth of ~20 kbps per camera while retaining 30–365 days locally, a 10‑year camera warranty, faster incident response (notably clear evidence captured at 40 m), and major time savings for Whitmore who no longer must visit the server room or sift through hours of unusable footage.
