Having precise access control allows the user to stay fully informed and track all possible logistical and personnel movements that are desired. For this there are different technological solutions that control access and generate records for the correct management and operation of the company.
This was clear to the company La Aurora, a firm from the Dominican Republic, specialized in the tobacco industry, which saw the need to improve its access control systems. La Aurora was founded on October 3, 1903 by Eduardo León Jimenes, a man who was the son and grandson of tobacco growers and who, without neglecting his family tradition, wanted to go one step further with the creation of a cigar brand to which he aspired to give a global dimension.
Its founder was then 18 years old, inherited some land tasks and with a reduced payroll of six tobacco companies, a lot of enthusiasm and effort, he began to build his dream. Today, 115 years later, La Aurora has a presence on five continents and more than a thousand employees.
What did the company want to solve?
In short, La Aurora wanted to ensure the security of its facilities, preventing unauthorized access. Therefore, they relied on CDVI solutions, requesting the following requirements:
Have a system that would allow them to see in real time how many people are inside the facilities and be able to take action in an emergency.
Have a reliable system that allows you to carry out with certainty the level of assistance of the company's employees and that can be integrated with the payroll payment system.
To be able to have a reliable history of the visits and contractors that access the company's facilities. A different system with flexibility to create accesses, schedules and doors, guaranteeing security.
