iView Systems iTrak Solution Automates Fallsview Casino Resort and Casino Niagara Security Operations


OAKVILLE, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 24, 2011) - iView Systems, a leading provider of loss prevention solutions for the security and surveillance environment, announces that the successful implementation of the iTrak Incident Reporting and Risk Management platform at Fallsview Casino & Casino Niagara is realizing immediate time and resource savings.

Before iTrak, all dispatch and lost and found processes were manually entered into one system, bogging down resources by having to enter the same information into a secondary incident reporting package. "Integrating our incident reporting via iTrak with the iDispatch Security Dispatch and Lost and Found modules has been a tremendous enhancement over our former procedures", says Richard Paris, Director of Security, Fallsview Casino & Casino Niagara.

iTrak replaced not only the manual dispatch and lost and found functions, but also a competitive product for incident reporting, providing more flexibility and efficiency. "Now, with iTrak, I have a snap shot of real-time information, while searching within the system allows me to quickly search and pull reports for any type of incident within seconds, saving an average of 30 minutes every morning for the management team. The trend analysis reports also enable casino managers to effectively allocate resources, forecast workloads and streamline productivity", cites Richard Paris, Director of Security.

iTrak and its' integrated iDispatch and Lost and Found modules provide a simple and intuitive approach delivering concise reporting with the flexibility and power to add specific incident and form detail. This can include accident, claim, environmental, evidence, hazard, use of force and more. Having the two casino locations share, track and report on Persons of Interest (POI) and incident information has become a seamless process.

iTrak has proven to be a valuable resource within both Fallsview Casino Resort and Casino Niagara that other departments have now installed it with their own access levels to collect and share information. The system has had an overall positive effect on the employees, saving time and boosting moral. The intuitive desktop makes it so easy to use that the most novice user is now the iTrak super user, training other staff members. The cage employees also use the iDispatch module for pick-up and transfer requests, allowing them to dispatch an officer to their location.

Fallsview Casino & Casino Niagara's Risk Management department also uses the iTrak system connecting risk related details with information into various reports and investigations, while being able to utilize the iTrak role based settings to ensure that only the required individuals have access to the information.

"iView has significant experience in providing security and surveillance software solutions. Working closely with Fallsview Casino Resort & Casino Niagara let us combine that experience with their operational requirements. The result is a security solution that will assist in keeping the casino employees, visitors and assets safe and secure", said James Henderson, Global Account Director at iView Systems.
