The Challenge

Thompsons were looking for a sustainable solution which would enable door access, give them the ability to track staff working hours and manage any on-site contractors. They required a customised system that also allowed their staff, customers, and visitors to feel protected in the knowledge that they knew exactly who was signed in across all 8 sites, in case of an emergency evacuation.

The Solution

After being recommended to InVentry, the staff members at Thompsons were keen for an on-site meeting to discuss their specific requirements with one of our Account Managers. Once they had seen the system live in action, they knew it was the perfect fit for all 8 of their sites.

With over 220 staff members across multiple sites, Thompson Commercials now knows which staff members are signed in and where. By collecting accurate sign in data for staff members, visitors, and contractors they can now monitor on-site arrivals ensuring that everyone is easily identifiable and accountable in the event of an emergency evacuation.

Alex Marshall, Audit and Process Senior Manager said, “we were looking for a sustainable system to ensure every basis was covered. After being recommended to InVentry, we had a demo, and I knew straight away that this was the system that would do everything that I needed it to do. Along with having the ability to easily sign everyone in, I knew it would protect all staff and visitors coming onto site with fire regulations.

InVentry also ensured that Thompsons had the ability to record staff working hours, effectively manage contractors and generate customised reports as and when needed. Door access was also a priority for the business and with the utilisation of our Quickscan units, Thompson Commercials can now allow staff members to easily sign in and out using RFID cards.

Alex Marshall commented, “InVentry offer so many different products and features for us to utilise. From contractor management to generating reports on staff working hours, the comprehensive system is easy to use, and visitors love that their details are remembered for a faster sign in process on reoccurring visits.

Alex continued, “I’d recommend InVentry to anyone in need of a sustainable sign in system. It’s smart, professional and completely bespoke to your company.
