About PGZ Group (Polish Armaments Group)
A company within PGZ Group (Polish Armaments Group) operates in a highly regulated and security-sensitive production environment.
With strict compliance requirements, multiple integrated systems and critical operational processes, the organisation required a future-proof platform to centralise access management across the entire site.
The challenge
Operating in the defence sector requires the highest levels of security, compliance and control
Operating in the defence sector requires the highest levels of physical security, strict compliance with regulations such as EN60839 Grade 4 and NIS2, and full operational control.
The organisation was managing multiple independent security systems, each with its own processes and limitations. This made it difficult to maintain a clear overview, ensure consistent access control across departments and security zones, and guarantee secure, encrypted communication throughout the infrastructure.
At the same time, visitor verification needed to be streamlined, emergency mustering processes had to be supported, and access rights required synchronisation with HR systems. The existing setup lacked central control and required consolidation into one secure and unified environment.
What they did
To address these challenges, the organisation implemented a scalable security management platform that brings multiple systems together in one central interface.
The solution integrates wireless locks, key management cabinets, mobile devices for emergency mustering, document readers for visitor registration, and time & attendance with HR synchronisation. By unifying these technologies into one platform, the organisation gained full control over identities, access rights and security processes.
All systems are now managed centrally, enabling a consistent and efficient approach to security across the entire site.
Conclusion
In high-security production environments within the defence sector, fragmented systems are no longer sufficient.
By integrating access control, key management, visitor verification, emergency mustering and HR synchronisation into one unified platform, the organisation has significantly enhanced both security and operational efficiency.
Security, integration and control — delivered through one central environment.
Key benefits
- Centralised management of all access rights: All identities and permissions are managed from one platform, ensuring full visibility, consistency and control across the entire organisation.
- Unified control across multiple systems: Different security systems are seamlessly integrated and managed through a single interface, reducing complexity and improving operational efficiency.
- Improved emergency response capabilities: Mobile verification and mustering solutions enable faster, more accurate response during emergency situations, enhancing overall safety.
- Faster and more secure visitor processing: Document readers and automated workflows streamline visitor registration while maintaining strict security and compliance standards.
- Automated HR synchronisation: Access rights are automatically updated based on HR data, reducing manual effort and ensuring that permissions are always accurate and up to date.
- Scalable, future-ready architecture: The platform is designed to grow with the organisation, supporting new integrations, additional users and evolving security requirements.
