City of Parramatta — One Platform for a Growing City
Facing fragmented systems across a fast-growing city, the City of Parramatta centralised access control, alarms and building automation for around 110 diverse sites — offices, libraries, community centres, childcare, aquatic and sporting facilities — onto one Protege GX platform, integrated with their existing infrastructure.
Wins for the city & its people
- Residents book any council facility online and get an automated 6-digit access PIN by email within 45 seconds
- Lights, air-con, hot water and AV switch on automatically for a booking — and alarms re-arm when it ends
- One-click emergency lockdown of an entire building, actioned from the Security Operations Center
- 24/7 operators respond faster using floor-plan dashboards, alarm pop-ups and live CCTV across all sites
- Energy savings, since amenities only run during booked times
- A single platform for security, facilities and bookings — less manual work, better public service, room to scale as the city grows
- "Our core operation, everything we have integrates with Protege GX — that is our foundation." — Mo Al Salemi, Security Platform Specialist, City of Parramatta
