15

The hospitality industry is diversified and broad, with specific fire safety and security needs. An integrated solution’s efficiency and accountability across life safety systems, security, access, and energy management can benefit prestigious hotels and chains. The safety of visitors, personnel, buildings, and other assets can be ensured by integrating fire and security systems, which can also generate remarkable seek and search KPIs.

Investment in ‘future-proof’ technology is not an expense but a need for ethical hotel management. Hotels have the opportunity and flexibility to add to the system, and increase situational awareness and accountability while lowering risks and operating costs, thanks to the full integration of modular software systems like Datalog 5, designed to simplify the control and management of otherwise disparate systems.

To provide staff and visitors alike peace of mind, Datalog offers hotel management a central monitoring system that increases visibility, shortens emergency reaction times, improves operational efficiency, and ups accountability.

Integration of Fire Alarms

Critical fire protection objectives are improved by integrating fire alarm systems with Datalog, giving the organization a quick and reliable way to discover a fire in its early stages.

• Life Safety

• Property protection

• Shortening emergency response times

• Operational continuity

In an emergency, hotels care for their employees and visitors. The local fire department will establish precise seek-and-search objectives, a 60-second alarm acknowledgment period, a 5-minute building evacuation period, etc.

Using Datalog, operators may swiftly analyze the nature of any fire alarm signal and provide their emergency response teams with the precise location of the fire’s origin, enabling them to confirm or refute the urgent need for the quick deployment of the fire brigade. As a result, the hotel’s emergency response staff can respond appropriately and quickly when an actual threat exists thanks to this strategy, which also helps to cut down on time lost on false alarm signals.

Arrangement of Other Systems

Securing the building, ensuring the safety of the personnel, clients, and visitors, and protecting the property are some of the most significant duties of hotel management. The hospitality industry places a high priority on security and safety. Thus, hotels must take appropriate precautions to safeguard their clients, staff members, and physical assets.

Hotels typically have a variety of other rooms, including restaurants, spas, swimming pools, and gyms. Datalog’s flexibility enables Cortech technical partners and ends users to choose the required system offering and configuration to ensure that the installation has sufficient scope at setup and for future developments. Datalog also integrates the sites’ systems to provide precise locations if an alarm signal is generated.

Security teams can see exactly where an incident occurred thanks to the integration of intruder alarm and access control systems, signals from emergency incidents and accessible toilet alarms, and even the position of high-value assets displayed throughout the property thanks to Datalog integration. In addition, the hotel’s emergency response staff can respond to the occurrence more quickly and the emergency services if necessary, thanks to the efficiency inherent in Datalog systems integration.

The emergency response teams at the hotel will benefit from integrating the CCTV system while dealing with alarm activations. Datalog can be configured to automatically display live streams from all nearby CCTV cameras on a separate alert screen in response to an alarm event on any system integrated with Datalog due to its ability to facilitate cause and effect between systems. To better advise and support their emergency response teams, this gives the control room staff live footage of the area before the alarm activation.

Summary

Datalog offers hotel management an utterly integrated system software solution to give operators better insight and situational awareness and enable them to respond to alarms, events, or warnings triggered more quickly and effectively.

With its cutting-edge systems and technology offerings, Datalog is a valuable asset for hospitality facilities, setting the standard for fire safety and security for visitors and personnel.
