Entelec Control Systems‘ Sky-Walker solution isn’t quite from a galaxy far, far away, but it’s a solution they believe can significantly help logistics companies.
“Running a logistics company is no easy task, especially when managing multiple locations and a constant flow of activities. Safety is paramount—for both employees and an optimal work environment.
“However, relying on diverse technologies and software tools can lead to inefficiency and slow incident responses.
“Sky-Walker offers a solution by integrating various safety elements, such as fire detectors, cameras, and alarms, into a powerful centralised management interface.
“Godart Raets, Product Manager at Entelec, explains: “Central management usually happens in the control room, but clients also have remote access, for example, by logging in via a browser on their laptop.”
PSIM
“Sky-Walker goes beyond a standard security system; it’s a Physical Security Information Management (PSIM) software. ‘”Our platform is highly flexible and adaptable to the needs of each client,” Raets says. “Clients can configure the platform as they wish and seamlessly integrate all their different systems.
“This modular design ensures compatibility with any existing systems, such as access control or door management, regardless of brand or type.”
“The system streamlines security operations by integrating various safety systems, automating workflows, and providing centralised control.
“This enables logistics companies to manage security incidents quickly and effectively, improve safety and optimise their operations,” says Raets.
“Sky-Walker Ensures Safety, Comfort, and Automation”
“The benefits of Sky-Walker are diverse. Safety managers can maintain a clear overview of all security actions, simplifying the management of security, safety, and comfort components.
“During a security incident, customised workflows guide operators through necessary steps: from reviewing video footage and direct communication with security personnel to automatically alerting emergency services and locking doors for added safety.
Comfort
“Employee comfort is also a priority. Sky-Walker integrates environmental systems like heating, ventilation, air conditioning, lighting, and energy usage, providing a comprehensive view of comfort levels.
“But Sky-Walker goes even further. With advanced AI-supported workflows and automated activities, the system can boost business performance and efficiency.
“Think of accurate inventory counts, nighttime deliveries, and cost reductions, which ultimately lead to higher customer satisfaction and better supply chain management,” says Raets.
Automation
“A notable case study illustrates Sky-Walker’s impact. The supermarket chain Jumbo sought optimised logistics processes and enhanced safety.
“By integrating Sky-Walker, the company automated goods tracking, activated video surveillance during incidents, and delivered real-time information to operators. The result was smoother logistics processes, reduced time loss, and increased safety.
“Sky-Walker enables tailored solutions. Every company has its own specific needs, and Sky-Walker can be customised to meet the unique requirements of each client.
“Whether it’s access control, CCTV, intercoms, fire detection, comfort control, or other systems, Sky-Walker integrates them seamlessly for a clear and efficient approach to security and management.
“Sky-Walker’s target audience is diverse but focuses primarily on large-scale infrastructures, such as logistics centers, that require advanced and centralised management.
“Our expertise is particularly valuable for organizations with extensive networks that need a central hub to monitor and manage everything,” says Raets.
“Whether it’s optimising logistics processes, automating security procedures, or enhancing employee comfort, Sky-Walker provides the solution.”
