Case Study: Christchurch Airport
Christchurch International Airport Limited (CIAL) is situated on the east coast of New Zealand’s South Island and receives more than six million passengers a year. In a legislation driven airport environment, CIAL is mandated by a number of Civil Aviation rules and regulations to provide control and monitoring of all access to restricted security areas. Gallagher protects all primary areas of aviation activity within the airport - terminal, airfield, support buildings and infrastructure.
CIAL Operations Manager Tim Morris says the desire to operate a modern and reliable access control system prompted the need to upgrade CIAL’s access system to Gallagher in 2007. “We needed something to provide the required security functionality today and allow for easy integration for more advanced requirements for the future,” he says. “We followed a robust evaluation process and found the Gallagher product was the best value for money and the best support structure for our site. In-house capability was a feature that set it apart from other systems.”
Case Study: Guangzhou Airport
Gallagher’s security system provides flexibility and scalability that is essential for the expanding Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport. A major gateway to China, it is the largest airport in the south and the operational base for China Southern Airlines. As the burgeoning Chinese economy continues to expand, transport volume and demand for efficient transport networks increases with it. Gallagher’s security system is perfectly designed to keep pace with the airport’s growth.
Case Study: National Grid
Safety, security and a continued regard for the environment are National Grid's priorities when planning and operating its high-voltage electricity transmission network. As owner and operator, the National Grid is responsible for carrying power from generators to regional network operators in England and Wales. The network consists of more than 300 substations, 7000km of overhead line and 650km of underground cable, providing a secure and reliable electricity transmission system.
Case Sudy: Sime Darby
Malaysia’s leading multinational conglomerate, Sime Darby Property has achieved high-level, low-profile security with Gallagher’s integrated access control and perimeter security solution.
Case Study: La Trobe University
La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia covers a massive 330 hectares with 60 buildings spread across several campuses. It has migrated to the latest Gallagher Command Centre software platform and it now has 1012 doors across its campuses, protecting a large number of facilities. “The Gallagher system is rapidly developing into an outstanding product,” said Wayne Aldous, Security Manager – Infrastructure and Operations Division, Security and Traffic Unit. “I have worked with many access control systems in the past and it beats everything out there”.
Case Study: Reliance
The Reliance Group is India’s largest business with revenue equivalent to 3.5 percent of the country’s GDP. It contributes nearly 10 percent of the country’s indirect tax revenues and more than six percent of its exports. Reliance succeeds in making its site security unobtrusive and invisible through integrated access control, alarms management and DVR systems – all managed through Gallagher’s core system. Head of Security Technology, Rajan Luthra, said Gallagher was chosen because, on a feature-by-feature basis, the system was “by far superior to any other at the time. We don’t have any regrets”.
Case Study: Averitt Freight
Averitt Express is a leading provider of freight transportation and supply chain management with international reach to more than 100 countries. Not only has the Gallagher system been successful in providing a complete deter and detect solution, it has also made Averitt sites more credible to their customers. “Since we installed Gallagher’s electric security system, there hasn’t been one break-in” said John Walton, Director for Safety and Compliance.
Case Study: Watercare Services
Watercare Services installed several kilometres of Gallagher perimeter security fencing at its greater Auckland sites in New Zealand. Watercare is required to protect and secure the safety and purity of the water supply to customers to an exceptionally high level.
Case Study: University of East Anglia
In the UK, the University of East Anglia’s wanted to centralise access and merge data sources using a system that could support multiple technologies and extensive integration. “We had 42,000 cards in circulation. There was no way we could replace them,” said Jonathan Richardson, Access Control Project Manager and Senior Systems Specialist. “The Gallagher system was chosen for its ability to work with third-party card formats”.
Case Study: Xstrata Copper's Mount Isa Mine
Xstrata Copper’s Mount Isa Mines in north-west Queensland, Australia is one of the few places in the world where four metals – copper, zinc, lead and silver – are found. The complex mix of mining, processing and smelting these four metals present numerous challenges when it comes to ensuring the safety of the public and staff.
“We must allow for movement of authorised personnel with a minimum of effort, while ensuring all the necessary training, induction and other entry requirements are current” said Darren Bracey, the mines’ Emergency and Protective Services Superintendent. “The Gallagher system has many different types of hardware that can be adapted to suit the site’s needs, while the powerful software lends itself well to integration with other third-party software applications to allow better management of security, health, safety, access control and contractor management”.
Case Study: Ricardo Consulting Engineers
Protection of intellectual property is a critical factor for Ricardo Consulting Engineers. Thay's why they chose a Gallagher perimeter security system. There hasn't been a single attempted break-in at Ricardo since the installation of the Gallagher perimeter security system in 1998.
Case Study: Birmingham Water
By using the Gallagher Code of Practice, Birmingham Water in Alabama in the US was able to conform to local ordinances related to electric fencing. The Code, along with minimum installation standards, exceeds the requirements of all national and international standards for safety and the application of electric fence systems.
Case Study: St Peter's School, Cambridge
After five years of using the Gallagher security system, St Peter’s School, Cambridge – one of the leading independent, co-educational secondary schools in New Zealand – has seen a remarkable ROI. By monitoring access reports on support staff time, the school has seen a reduction in invoiced working hours.
The biggest savings have been made through integrating the Gallagher system with building management systems – the Gallagher platform controlling access, heating and lighting. These efficiencies mean that complete payback on the system will be achieved within two years.
Case Study: Waitakere City Council
Warren Cornor, Security Manager of NZ’s Waitakere City Council, believes that Gallagher measures up well against other security systems when it comes to cost and performance. “In my view, it is way in front of any other system. Gallagher technology is leading the way. It was an easy choice. It’s so stable compared to other systems we’ve had. We haven’t had any issues with it,” said Warren. “It is important to remember that working within the council environment, you are spending public money, so accountability is high and I really believe we have invested in the technology that will serve us well into the future”.
Case Study: ANSTO
The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) is Australia’s national nuclear research and development organisation and the centre of Australian nuclear expertise. Its nuclear infrastructure includes the Open Pool Australian Light-water (OPAL) Research Reactor, Australia’s only nuclear reactor. The organisation manages high and medium security areas on Gallagher's single security platform
