The customer
White Rose Park is a business complex on the south side of Leeds, next to the White Rose Shopping Centre. The Park operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and houses several global businesses. It has an extensive car parking provision of nearly 3,000 spaces and accommodates an outdoor training park.
Gough & Kelly (G&K) and its partners have looked after this site, providing around-the-clock security solutions, for over 20 years. This involves manned guarding, managing tenants and visitors, CCTV monitoring and Automatic Number Plate Recognition services.
Project requirements
The CCTV system on site required an upgrade to maintain and satisfy the security demands of the park and its resident businesses. Multi-level security and the safety of the buildings and personnel on site is paramount, and these global enterprises trust G&K to ensure complete peace of mind.
The security upgrade needed to be intelligent and reactive to deal with different requirements of the clients, and the 4000 daily visitors to the site. Several systems need to work together in order to provide the most complete security solution.
Our solution
We partnered with Milestone video management software (VMS) and Hanwha cameras to provide a full system upgrade that would work best for the new control room, and the site in general.
Milestone is a global leader in open-platform, data-driven video management technology, providing integration of multiple applications and a central management system. The software can be expanded and new components added as required for ongoing innovations. This makes it an excellent, future-proof solution for our clients.
Hanwha is a global vision solution provider, with state of the art, intelligent cameras that provide analytics. The cameras we have chosen can automatically track objects such as vehicles and cars, as well as locked targets.
In this instance, Milestone is integrated with the Hanwha cameras to provide several great features. The 6mp fixed cameras around site detect and communicate with the nearest 4k PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) camera to direct it toward events as they happen. This is triggered and shown directly through the VMS platform in the control room, which gives staff the ability to react and respond.
The incredible video quality and responsiveness of the cameras, paired with the flexible, future-proof video management software, provides the most accurate and complete security solution for White Rose Park.
Gough & Kelly has installed these systems and manages the control room that the video feeds to, acting upon any matters as quickly as possible.
The future
Gough & Kelly endeavour to continue our work with White Rose Park, and our fantastic technology partners. We will always seek to implement the most up-to-date systems that perfectly fit the bespoke needs of all our customers and are proud to have installed this solution at White Rose.
