NSGB BANK (EGYPT)
Since its establishment in 1978, NSGB is one of Egypt’s largest private banks. NSGB traditionally focused on corporate banking with large clients. NSGB was created by Société Générale, one of Europe’s largest banks and the National Bank of Egypt.
- Required a robust Time Attendance and Access Control system to cater for up to 3000 users, with an option to increase capacity in the future.
- It has multiple branches therefore needed to be connected over multiple locations.
- Data needs to be pooled from these sites into the NSGB’s main headquarters.
Jakin ID helped NSGB by providing them the following solutions:
- Up to 150 Jakin ID combination model devices were deployed in many of the bank’s branches and the main headquarters. Many were also eventually upgraded later to increase user capacity of up to 5000 users.
- Flexible authentication options including optical biometric fingerprint and smart card technology.
- Access Control facilities are built in for security management of employees and restricted areas, save costs with a unified system to avoid unnecessary additional hardware.
- Network ready with built-in LAN connectivity for multiple site installation.
- All Jakin ID units are synchronized using AMS, where the event log data are transmitted to the central database in real time.
- Jakin ID AMS also helps collects data event log data from multiple terminals in either real-time or time scheduled mode into the database server.
- Third party software integration allows customisable Time Attendance software provided by the vendor with components of the AMS SOAP/API.
There were minor issues with the first system setup but it was resolved with assistance from the Jakin ID Technical Support team. Additional tools and software were deployed to help remedy issues to fit the needs required by NSGB bank.The ACTAtek and AMS management solution for both access control and workforce management instead of two separate access control systems and time clocks save purchasing, operational and maintenance costs for the NSGB.
