Human Recognition Systems

What is MSite?

MSite is a biometric access control and workforce management and reporting system that collects and reports on different streams of operational data.

It has been built entirely in house by Human Recognition Systems and was designed specifically to meet the requirements of the construction industry, with key focus on guaranteeing:

• That the entire workforce are who they say they are
• That they are inducted appropriately
• That all accreditation is in date and that they have no bans against them

Benefits of MSite

Benefits include:

• Data when you need it
  Through a networked system, operators can gain access to real time company-wide reports which can be accessed online from any location (e.g. Time and attendance, Health and Safety, CSCS expiry, Carbon Emissions)
• Automated Regulation
  Provides an automated restriction of workers from site who have breached pre-defined business rules (e.g. CSCS Expiration / Health & Safety Policy)
• Safer Sites
  An accurate record of who has entered and exited the site allows for tighter site security management
• Money Saving
  Reduces inaccurate workforce payments and wage disputes by accurately capturing attendance data in an automated site attendance register
• Cuts out administration
  Decreases labour intensive site management activities and processing of management information
• Tough Technology
  A robust technology designed to endure harsh environmental conditions and integrate seamlessly into corporate back office systems

How does it work?

MSite can be deployed on both Building or Civils projects. In either instance, biometric technology such as hand geometry is used to verify a workers identity as they arrive and leave site. This transaction data is then stored and feeds into a comprehensive reporting engine. All reports can be generated by individual named site worker, by contractor, site wide or company-wide.

MSite is not just a standalone solution that can be deployed on a single construction site.  At the click of a button, company-wide reports can be generated providing headquarters visibility of their workforce operations across the entire estate. You can use the system to build a configurable corporate KPI dashboard which can be viewed in real-time.

Key reports include:

• Local Labour
• Estimated Carbon Emissions
• Time and Attendance Summary
• Detailed Time and Attendance
• Roll Call (Muster Report)
• CSCS Audit
• CSCS Expiry
• Incident / Accident Audit
• Banned Employee Access Attempt
• Induction Checklist
• Dormant Workers

How is it deployed?

MSite can be delivered in two different formats to suit your construction needs:

• MSite Pod – For construction sites WITH a fixed perimeter
• MSite Lite - For construction sites with NO fixed perimeter

Designed for construction sites with a fixed perimeter, MSite Pod is a portable unit that houses a full height turnstile and the required biometric hardware to transition workers onto and off site through the MSite access control and workforce management solution, key benefits include:

• ‘Drop On Site’ capability
• Complete turnkey solution
• Fully portable with the ability to move locations as a project progresses
• Scalable with ability to ‘bolt on’ additional MSite Pod’s to suit throughput
• Available in single or double turnstile formats
• Only requirement from site is power

Designed for construction sites with no fixed perimeter, MSite Lite is a small enclosure that houses a biometric device along with a 3G Router and power supply. This format of MSite is designed to deliver all of the same benefits of the MSite Pod but for environments where there is no physical perimeter. Key benefits include:

• Mobile, enclosures can be carried by one person
• Simplicity of installation  - Attach to a table or wall and apply  power
• Flexibility, enclosures can  communicate via 3G allowing multiple locations across a large geographical area to form one system
• Elimination of “buddy punching” which is common in an environment without access control

What else can I get from MSite?

In addition to the range of reports and KPI dashboard that is delivered with MSite there are a number of additional modules that you can add on to tailor the product to meet your needs.

Environment

The environment module has been designed to enable automated reporting on local labour and carbon emissions.

Pre-enrol

The pre-enrol module saves time and money spent on the lengthy administrative task of enrolling site workers. It enables sub contractors to log into an online portal and enroll all site workers that they are to provide to site. This dramatically reduces the amount of time it takes for a site administrator to induct a new worker onto the project e.g. 1-2 hours per worker.

Advanced Muster/Roll Call

Advanced Muster/Roll Call is used to track the number of workers on site at the point of a live evacuation. If an evacuation event should occur, MSite will provide a report detailing all people that are unaccounted for.

PhotoID

PhotoID cards can be printed using MSite. A photo card can then be used in conjunction with a site workers biometric identity offering enhanced security via dual factor authentication.
