US 5-star hotel chain in Nigeria streamlines staff management

Le Meridien is one of the world's renowned hotel chains, with a portfolio of more than 100 luxury and upscale hotels in more than 50 countries worldwide. Located in metropolitans across the globe, Le Meridien hotels provide top-notch service and comfort when it comes to hospitality. Recently, FingerTec products caught the eye of the Le Meridien in Lagos, Nigeria as a time and attendance solution.

It all began during one the largest security shows in Africa, the IFSEC West Africa 2012. The event itself was held in the Le Meridien Hotel, and while making their rounds in the exhibition, the management staff of the hotel spotted Rapid Vigil's booth, which offered total attendance and access solutions. Many of the employees in the hotel work within specified shifts to ensure that the hotel services function round-the-clock. Currently the hotel was using the manual time punch cards to sort out their staff attendance.

The hotel decided to equip their premises with the FingerTec AC100C, and the R2 & R2i units for their main management office. Using the TCMS V2 to manage and analyze reports, the best part about using FingerTec, according to the management, was that they could get rid of all their manual punch cards, which can be a real messy ordeal to deal with.

Rapid Vigil has been a FingerTec partner since the year 2005, and is the official and exclusive distributor of the FingerTec brand in Nigeria. Emphasizing on training and support, the company has grown far since, and is one of the top security solutions companies in the country.
