County Council

What is the Orion Data Network For County Councils?

Worker, Public and VIP Safety

Smarter Technologies Group also creates lone worker panic, man down and SOS alarms and VIP protection and tracking devices for when you need to protect staff working in remote areas or visiting dignitaries, royals, diplomats and other vulnerable guests.

Asset Recovery

Our Council asset protection solutions also operate in active beacon mode with a specially designed, handheld RFID reader, which lets you know the precise location of lost or stolen assets and enables you to liaise effectively with local police to recover anything that is lost or stolen and help to secure arrest and conviction.

Better Waste Management With Orion

Effective, cost-effective waste management can be difficult as the amount and type of waste varies in different areas of the County at different times of the year. Without a proper system that notifies you when bins are full and need emptying or are still sufficiently empty to be left, you can incur unnecessary costs and waste precious man hours. Smarter Technologies Group’s Orion solutions combat all of these problems for a smarter, more efficient and cost-effective waste system that enables predictive collection, keeps your streets cleaner and ensures your community is much happier.

Our solutions are also more sustainable and aesthetically appealing than others and help to reduce your carbon footprint. They can also be put to multiple use so that, for example, a bin situated in a shopping centre can be used to measure footfall or provide wifi.

Council Building and Site Asset Management With Orion

Orion solutions can be utilised to protect individual staff, visitors and other personnel within all your Council owned buildings. Each person can be tracked for additional personal security and to protect safe and sensitive areas and assets. Orion interacts and integrates with your existing security solutions such as your CCTV system. You can also track all of your assets and inventory across multiple sites enabling asset sharing and recovering mislaid assets easily by determining where they are located and who is responsible for them.

For University buildings that are Council-owned, Smarter Technologies Group creates asset management systems that create a smarter, more secure, safe and clean environment that gives your university an advantage over others, making it a better choice for the modern student.

For other publicly owned sites such as ports and marinas, our solutions can be used to track and monitor hazardous areas and materials; optimise personnel productivity, protect lone workers; protect assets such as containers, cargo, machinery, equipment, vessels and vehicles and maximise resources.
