COVID 19 pandemic has forced the world to change its way of functioning with social distancing becoming an unspoken rule. While it is easier to practise social distancing in personal surroundings, adapting the same for our professional workspace remain a challenge.
As voices are being raised for the adoption of touchless check-ins for employees and visitors, the question remains how it can be achieved. Visitor management apps have stepped forward to provide the answer.
A visitor management application or visitor screening software system is a digital check in system which helps an organization keep track of people, other than hired employees, entering the company premises.
Visitor tracking app is essential for restricting visitors from accessing confidential areas, monitoring their movement inside the company premises and ensuring that they have indeed left the office once they check out.
Visitor management system app do not require any employee to physically meet the visitor to provide them entry or exit. Visitor management apps automate the process of a visitor’s entry and exit based on pre-approvals and online registrations and digitally track their movements.
The demand for no-touch visitor management apps has seen a significant increase in the past 6 months. The current valuation of the no-touch visitor management system is just shy of 850 million USD. By 2025 the same valuation is expected to be more than double and reach up to 1640 million USD.
In 2020 and coming years visitor management apps will see increased demand and a constantly rising market value. This will include the following factors:
To avoid unsolicited visitors physically accessing entry devices and to contactless and secure entry and exit, companies will opt for touchless visitor management.
Touch-based visitor management apps are quickly being replaced by no-touch systems. As companies open after the lockdown, such apps and software will hold more prominence for the secure screening of visitors on company premises.
Visitor management apps will also be in demand to help organisations stay complaint with the latest health standards. No touch visitor screening would be inculcated to mitigate any risk related to connecting with symptomatic/asymptomatic persons.
Visitor management software market has seen a significant increase in revenue since COVID 19 pandemic broke out. Visitor management apps have become essential for creating a safe space for visitors as well the workforce of a company. Such apps have emerged as a potent tool to ensure business continuity during and post coronavirus pandemic.
Following are some steps which can be enforced along with the technology adoption to ensure safe visitor management for your organization:
During such a crisis, it is important that you shift to an invite only basis where each visitor is pre-registered using visitor management apps. This will prevent surprise visitors from arriving in the company premises and lead to better management of the workplace safety.
While inviting visitors to your office, it would be beneficial if you could provide details about your check in process such as temperature check at entry point, wearing face mask or face shield, no touch identification such as QR code scanning and much more. This will make the visitors prepared well in advance and avoid confusion at entry/exit points.
You can introduce health and temperature check mechanisms before any visitor is granted entry to ensure that the visitors are not carriers of the disease.
The organization can install a printer adjacent to the check in system which automatically generates E-badges rather than a front desk employee physically signing them for the visitor.
When a visitor signs in successfully, the concerned person whom they are to meet can be automatically notified about their arrival via SMS, email or some other medium.
