Account Solutions Group, LLC


Client Overview
The Account Solutions Group is a collection agency center that employs over 500 people located in Amherst New York. Given the sensitivity of information that they work with, they need to have tight security surveillance of their two facilities, which total over 43,000 square feet.

While Account Solutions was ready to sign a Sales Agreement with a competitor for a CCTV Surveillance System, Life Safety provided additional options for consideration that ultimately led to a series of demonstrations and finally a proposal which provided better coverage for the client.

Analysis
Life Safety determined that there were a number of different types of cameras that would optimize the visual coverage for each specific area of concern, as well as the best digital recording system for this kind of application. It was also determined that most effective means of monitoring Account Solution’s two buildings was by transmitting the video over a LAN Ethernet data system and the client’s existing fiber optic system. This solution utilized the assets that the client already had to provide a flexible system that best met their needs.

Solution/Result
Life Safety provided and installed a 20 camera system using a variety of cameras and viewing them on individual PC’s. Recording is accomplished with two digital recorders over the LAN along with remote viewing capabilities. Account Solutions is now successfully protecting their facility and found security breaches that the client was not aware of prior to the installation of the CCTV hybrid system.

Client Testimonial

"On behalf of Account Solutions Group, I would like to thank Life Safety for your outstanding performance during our recent video surveillance and security system project. From start to finish, your team displayed great professionalism, dedication and were truly enjoyable to work with.

Fantastic job.

After arranging tours and demonstrations of your work at other customer locations, you evaluated our facilities, business needs and developed a customized solution that has given us and our clients increased peace of mind. Responsiveness and ability to quickly generate quotes combined with your relationships with multiple industry OEM’s really sets you apart from the competition.

We had obvious concerns that installing a video surveillance system in two buildings during regular business hours would be disruptive to our operations. We were happy to be proven wrong. Mike and Jason of your installation team were remarkable. Their ability to 'fly under the radar' during the build-out phase had no impact on us at all. We were impressed with their friendliness and attention to detail. Cables and wiring were run in a neat, tidy fashion. Cameras were aimed, focused and the whole system performed beautifully.

Again, thank you for the great customer service and experience. We look forward to working with you on future projects."

Best Regards,
