Vendor Management

Overview

Vendor Management Design Considerations

What is the process for processing/registering vendors?

• Self-serving (kiosk, tablet, etc)
• Check-in desk
• Paper

Picking Credential Technologies:

Use Multi-Technology Readers with Mobile Enabled

• Order readers from BluB0X to get them shipped with BluB0X Mob key preconfigured

HID vs Allegion vs FarPointe

• This drives the type of reader required

• Does not have to be single technology

• BluID + Card + Fob + Pin

• HID/ASSA Abloy

• Most common

• Use for Commercial Real Estate vertical to achieve the greatest change of card compatibility

• Cards, Readers and Locks

• Must use with ASSA Abloy integrated lock sets

• Supports MiFARE CSN (for visitor credentials)

• Allegion

• Cards, Readers and Locks

• Must use with Allegion integrated lock sets

• Supports MiFARE CSN (for visitor credentials)

• Does not have a mobile credential solution

• Have a smartphone

• FarPointe

• Cards and Readers

• Least expensive

• Excellent support

• Does not have a multi-technology reader

• Do not use with CRE vertical

Access Control Tie-in:

• BluB0X Access Control
• Existing Access Control
