Group Two - RoboWatch protects Murphy Group’s development sites

Keeping construction sites secure and intruder-free is a priority for all construction companies, especially in light of the continuing rise in plant and material theft. No one knows this more than contractors J. Murphy and Sons Ltd.
RoboWatch from Group Two has been used for site protection for Murphy for the last 18 years.
“We have found the RoboWatch system from Group Two to be very reliable and have used their services in many of our developments throughout the country,” explains Varnavas Christofi, Murphy Group security manager. “RoboWatch, is far cheaper than a security guard and provides peace of mind, knowing that the construction and compound area is getting round-the-clock protection from a state-of-the-art security system.”

RoboWatch sees everything; it monitors all areas of a construction site 24/7 and costs up to 70% less than a manned equivalent.
Even better, RoboWatch will never take a break, will not fall asleep on the job, will record everything for future reference and complies with current legislation and insurance requirements.
As well as being cheaper than other surveillance systems on the market, RoboWatch has an added advantage over the competition. RoboWach uses multiple fixed cameras rather than the traditional PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) cameras used by competitors.
Using fixed cameras ensures the entire site is constantly monitored and nothing is missed. By contrast, PTZ cameras can sometimes fail to spot intruders - by the time the camera is alerted to trespassers and moves into position the perpetrators have vacated the site, leaving the contractors with no visual evidence to secure convictions.
In addition, RoboWatch uses high speed broadband connections where available and will only use GSM or dial-up when the infrastructure does not allow. All cameras are fitted with ultra-sensitive motion sensors; the slightest movement transmits an instant signal to Group Two’s technologically advanced control room, where a highly trained team of operators can instantly view live pictures of the site. As soon as intruders are detected, the controller responds with an audio communication, warning them to leave immediately whilst simultaneously alerting the local police.
The central control room has its own independent power supply, secure telephone communication links and is fully fortified against outside attack. In the unlikely event that the main monitoring station is evacuated, a satellite station can be up and running within minutes to ensure security monitoring is not compromised. Group Two’s security systems are checked a least four times a day to ensure they are working correctly at all of their sites.
RoboWatch keeps one step ahead of the game through continual research and development and by investing in the latest technology. This makes RoboWatch a market leader in the UK security sector, being the preferred choice for many contractors.
Most importantly RoboWatch is typically half the cost of a security guard and twice as effective.
“We have used RoboWatch for many years and are continually impressed by the impeccable level of service they provide,” says Varnavas Christofi, Murphy Group security manager. “We recommend RoboWatch for any contractor looking to improve their on-site security.”
