Decision framework

Compare the complete installed workflow.

Review locks, encoders, software, staff procedures, current cards and transition requirements as one environment.

Do not order replacement credentials until the supported technology and cutover plan are documented.

Bring the system.
We will narrow the product.

Start with the property, use case, destination and what is known about the installed access environment.

Three controls before release. Each stage is reviewed separately so an attractive product direction never substitutes for technical or operational confirmation.
