Use case: co-creation with Kuijpers and Eindhoven University of Technology for building vector
To implement an advanced access control system in building Vector on the campus of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), TU/e, Kuijpers and Synguard joined forces. This project focused on the development of an API link, allowing access control to be controlled more efficiently via their own platform .
CHALLENGE
TU/e needed a reliable and flexible access control solution, where access management could be easily and automated via an API link with Synguard. This required close cooperation between different parties and a careful testing and implementation phase.
An additional complication was an unexpected cyber-attack on TU/e, which required additional management efforts and flexibility from all parties involved to successfully complete the project.
aPPROACH AND COLLABORATION
- API development: An API link was designed and developed in close cooperation between TU/e and Synguard.
- Test phase: The link was successfully tested in the acceptance environment.
- Implementation: After positive test results, the API was jointly brought to production.
- Flexibility in crisis: Despite the cyber attack, all parties remained flexible and adapted to the circumstances to keep the project on track.
- Monitoring and Validation: Monitoring of links and error messages ensured stable and reliable operation of the system.
