The challenge
Meeting evolving needs with flexibility and expertise
When BNP Paribas Fortis planned the construction of their new headquarters, the priorities were clear: they needed a flexible, scalable, and future-proof solution. The new Warandeberg Montagne du Parc building is not only architecturally impressive but also provides the perfect setting for a modern, technologically advanced access control system.
What they did
Seamless integration and unmatched support
BNP Paribas Fortis chose Nedap’s access control system based on its ability to seamlessly integrate with other technologies, improved scalability, and the freedom to choose their vendors.
The decision to switch to AEOS also aligned perfectly with the bank’s broader goals of innovation and operational efficiency. AEOS’s open architecture provided the flexibility to integrate additional solutions, such as visitor management systems, while also ensuring that the bank was no longer locked into a single vendor for software, hardware, installation, or maintenance.
“We wanted an open system, one that could evolve with us as we grow. AEOS provided that. It’s built to integrate seamlessly with our IT infrastructure, and we’ve already integrated solutions like Assa Abloy wireless locks and the Milestone video management system. AEOS is future-proof, and we have the freedom to add more technologies as our needs grow.”
