Volan Technology, the authority in AI-based workplace safety and contact tracing software, and dormakaba, the global leader in hotel access solutions, today announce a revolutionary partnership. A first-ever integration, Volan’s state-of-the art micro-location positioning and emergency response technology has been combined with dormakaba’s access control systems creating the most advanced enterprise safety and security solution on the market. Hotel and facility operators will now have the capabilities to view their entire staff’s locations to quickly respond in the case of an emergency, run precise contact tracing and rostering reports on thousands of people and rooms in seconds, and automatically lock and unlock entry points saving critical minutes in emergency response time, all with one portable device. 

Volan’s safety technology provides private and precise real-time 3D location positioning of thousands of people using the Volan Positioning System™ (VPS).

A neural mesh network with geofencing capabilities, VPS enables hotels, schools and other large properties to immediately implement safety measures ensuring unmatched security, reliability and quality.
