Background

After winning a competitive tender for the installation of security and data services, CNG’s further value was soon apparent in its flexibility to maximise efficiencies in these highly secure environments as well as provide pragmatic solutions to the constant challenges when integrating such a large number of technologies.

Approach

CNG liaised closely with Honeywell, Corrections Victoria and other stakeholders to ensure the project stayed on schedule and that technical and logistical challenges were quickly identified and resolved.

With access and movement on site greatly restricted due to security protocols, CNG staff were put through the departments “Prison Partner’ program to certify them to the standard whereby they could be issued keys and radios and move around with the equivalent freedom of a guard.

Solution

The contracted systems were installed in accordance with the consulting engineers designs with CNG adding value to the redesign of the fibre optic solution.

CNG had further significant design input into the additional scope items such as the Arunta Prisoner Phone System for which CNG designed the full installation methodology and interfacing componentry as well the lightning protection system.
