Viseum Business Case
Viseum’s intelligent CCTV solutions not only attract high end projects, where anything else other than the best available CCTV surveillance equipment may compromise client security, but clients also purchase Viseum equipment as the most cost effective solution to protect all their areas of concern.
The CCTV security systems we design can be installed ‘plug and play’, without the need for the otherwise lengthy procurement and installation processes of standard technologies, requiring considerable camera and cabling infrastructures.
Endorsements
Independent endorsements say that Viseum cameras produce at least 25 times more usable video evidence, and clear up at least 15 times more incidents than any other camera, and that it would take at least 5 – 6 times more installations of any ‘constantly manned’ advanced PTZ camera solution, or at least 10 of the industry’s latest panoramic megapixel cameras, or a minimum of 200 times more standard fixed camera installations, to provide the level of CCTV security that each Viseum IMC provides without being dependent on any surveillance operators or CCTV infrastructures.
Other key financial points
- Self-monitored, self-operated and self-managed, as opposed to key operational dependencies on high bandwidth communications, 24/7 operators and central control equipment.
- 1 plug and play installation for immediate vast coverage, as opposed to procuring, cabling and maintaining several separate camera installations.
- Installations are monitored locally with no operator fatigue or physical risk to their well-being e.g. areas prone to disorder.
Comparison installation
A typical Viseum installation of around 100 Viseum IMC cameras protects an area of approximately 6km2. For the same level of effective CCTV coverage with the next best camera solution, it would require 1000 x 180° panoramic megapixel cameras, 1,120TB more hard disk storage and 6.45Gbps more video transmission bandwidth.
Direct operational savings
Viseum UK’s end user technology partners have researched the direct operational cost savings available for UK boroughs. Results of this research show:
- Police savings example - around $1m per year per district.
- Remote monitoring savings example - around $1/2m per year per district.
- Manned guarding security - this is one of the most expensive options for site security and is notoriously unreliable, with operatives failing to turn up for work and lacking concentration. Wages are an on-going and increasing cost, whereas the typical payback for Viseum Intelligent CCTV solutions is between 12 and 18 months, and from then on costs are negligible.
