02How it works

How the operations room works

  1. Connect

    We link the site’s cameras, alarms, vehicles and radio net to the operations room.

  2. Watch

    Watchkeepers monitor around the clock and follow every movement.

  3. Respond

    When something happens, the room alerts the team on site, coordinates support and keeps the client informed.

  4. Report

    Incidents are logged, escalated and reported, followed by root-cause analysis and corrective actions in line with ISO 18788.

04Questions

Questions about the operations room

Yes. Our offices in Basra, Kirkuk, Erbil and Mosul each have an operations room staffed 24/7 by trained watchkeepers. They provide CCTV and control-room monitoring (including alarm systems, with AI-assisted analytics where the site system supports it), GPS tracking of vehicles, incident reporting and management, and real-time coordination of escorts and field teams. Access-control systems can be added through specialist suppliers for large or remote sites.

Where the site’s systems allow it, yes. We assess the existing cameras and alarms during the risk assessment and agree with you what the operations room will monitor.

We provide daily, weekly and monthly reporting, with content agreed with each client. Incidents are logged, escalated and reported promptly, followed by root-cause analysis and corrective actions in line with ISO 18788. The operations room keeps the client informed in real time during movements and incidents.
