Ideco appoints new EVIM partner

February 2015 News & Events

As part of its growth strategy and due to increased demand for the EVIM visitor management solution, Ideco Biometric Solutions has appointed Stallion Security as a Value Added Reseller (VAR).

EVIM is a mobile scanning solution that reinforces security as a digital visitor register and is the only offering of its kind that is fully compliant with the country’s newly promulgated Protection of Personal Information (POPI) Act.

Ideco designed and piloted the EVIM solution in anticipation of the POPI act before officially launching the solution to end users and industry service providers earlier this year. This device captures visitor data and automatically verifies vehicle and person ID data.

Ideco MD, Marius Coetzee, says, “We are impressed by the intuitive way in which Stallion recognised EVIM as a whole new solution vertical, taking it to market as a new value-added supply chain opportunity. Stallion seized the opportunity to become a partner and they fully understand the unique dynamics of partnership relationships.”

Stallion Security group technical director Alvin Flaum says the EVIM system is a natural fit for the Stallion offering and is also a great value-add to Stallion’s existing guarding security services and systems portfolio. “The Stallion group embraces the amalgamation of conventional guarding with electronic protection and detection solutions. Instead of viewing the advent of technology as a threat to our business, we actively adopt the latest technology as a value added offering wherever possible, which helps ensure our clients’ sites remain safe and protected.”

Ideco Business Solutions executive Mark Paynter says Stallions’ national footprint along with its large and guarding client portfolio, made it a superb fit for the EVIM solution. “We were impressed by their eagerness to adopt the product and to gain access to the solution on a national basis.”

“We already have the system successfully implemented at a number of key national clients and we are confident that as we upskill our support and solutions staff the solution will gain substantial traction until it eventually becomes a standard offering to all our clients,” Flaum concludes.
