What to do at this stage
- 01
Translate the protection concept into workable operational procedures.
- 02
Confirm staffing, training, access and escalation arrangements with the operator.
- 03
Rehearse important tasks and record any readiness gaps before transition.
Questions to work through
- Can the operating team run the controls on day one?
- Are procedures understandable under pressure?
- Who covers absences and out-of-hours response?
Before a new access system goes live, staff need a practical way to issue, revoke and recover credentials, including arrangements for lost passes and system outages.
A common trap
Installed technology does not create operational readiness without trained people and usable procedures.
