The successful pilot at its 20 Water Street headquarters in London solved core challenges faced by JLL: managing disparate access control systems across its global corporate footprint and integrating its own access control with base building landlord systems, a common complexity in multi-tenanted buildings. The SwiftConnect platform unified JLL's different access control systems into a single pass stored in employees digital NFC wallet, using HID Signo™ readers and HID Seos ® credential technology, so that employees can access both base building entrances and JLL office spaces with one credential on their smartphone or wearable device.
As a result, the rollout kicked off a phased expansion at JLL’s new flagship UK headquarters and prompted JLL to use SwiftConnect’s connected access network to automate its global security approach around integrating multiple systems into a single digital access pass.
"JLL Spark recognised early on how fragmented the access control landscape was and how traditional access methods were ill-equipped to meet the growing need for frictionless, and on-demand office access, whether at a single location or a portfolio of buildings,” said Daniel Correa, Growth Principal at JLL Spark. “Our investment in SwiftConnect years ago was driven by this clear gap between how enterprises manage physical identity and access. Fast forward to today, our decision to deploy the company’s platform across JLL offices and managed assets is a natural expression of our confidence in what SwiftConnect delivers."
The SwiftConnect mobile access deployment delivers across three areas:
"JLL's decision to deploy our connected access network across their own portfolio is the kind of validation that speaks for itself,” said Chip Kruger, Co-CEO at SwiftConnect. “It reflects the growing momentum SwiftConnect is experiencing across the UK and European market for a truly unified approach to access, irrespective of the existing physical security infrastructure."
Moving ahead, SwiftConnect is also scaling mobile access deployments for JLL as asset manager for its property owner clients. JLL currently manages a number of other buildings where SwiftConnect has implemented mobile access, including an ongoing deployment to 10,000 users this year.
