Site entry
Arrange safety induction, staff records and gate passes before the installation team arrives.
Commando360 for Pharmaceuticals
Security and operations for pharmaceutical plants
Connect controlled-room access, gowning checks, visitor passes and staff coverage. Give plant teams the evidence and tasks needed to resolve exceptions.
Controlled-room occupancy
25+ years in physical security
Commando Security Group, our sister company, has more than 25 years of physical security experience.
Plan for your site
Safe installation
Confirm PPE, work-at-height permits and authorised power connections with the site team.
IT access
Agree device access, IP requests and discovery scans with IT. Use authorised accounts and follow site notification rules.
How does Commando360 support pharmaceutical plant operations?
Commando360 connects controlled-room access, gowning checks, visitor records and staff coverage. Teams can review camera events, check permissions and assign action under the plant’s procedures. Each response retains its location, supporting evidence and timestamps.
Connect the gate, production floor and controlled rooms
Keep access checks and plant responses tied to the right zone and team.
- Entrances: Verify staff, visitors and vehicles.
- Production floor: Track incidents, staff coverage and unattended items.
- Controlled rooms: Check occupancy, gowning and authorised passage.
Verify identity and zone clearance
Compare entries with the enrolled employee, contractor and vendor roster. Review identity, training and zone clearance together.
Workflow and setup
Record: An entry record that connects the person, controlled area, timestamp, and authorisation status.
Workflow: Detect → Match → Check clearance → Record
Track vehicles from gate to dock
Use automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) to link a vehicle with its transporter, driver and dock assignment. Review unexpected load movements and unassigned bay use.
Workflow and setup
Record: A plate-level movement record with gate entry, bay assignment, and exit timestamps.
Workflow: Read plate → Match assignment → Track bay → Flag exception
Approve visitors before arrival
Pre-register visits with a host. Verify the approved record and issue a pass for defined zones and hours, with escort and exit details.
Workflow and setup
Record: A visitor record with purpose, permitted zones, host, escort, and entry and exit details.
Workflow: Register → Verify → Escort → Sign out
Assign and track incident responses
Connect spills, falls, smoke alerts, crowd events and field SOS calls with the location and relevant standard operating procedure (SOP). Assign a response owner and track acceptance and closure.
Workflow and setup
Record: A record of the event, actions, timestamps, and response duration against the agreed target.
Workflow: Detect → Escalate → Respond → Close
Compare the roster with staff presence
Link face and geofence check-ins to assigned posts. Give supervisors a view of absences, late reliefs, overtime and patrol completion.
Workflow and setup
Record: Verified attendance and deployment records to support contractor billing and manpower review.
Workflow: Roster → Verify check-in → Track patrol → Report
Flag unattended items
Flag bags, drums, cartons or trolleys left in corridors, docks and plant rooms. Send the location and clip to the response team.
Workflow and setup
Record: A location-specific obstruction record with the response owner, supporting clip, and closure action.
Workflow: Detect → Confirm → Escalate → Clear
Monitor controlled-room occupancy
Count entries and exits against room limits. Give supervisors occupancy by zone and a history to reconcile during drills.
Workflow and setup
Record: A timestamped occupancy history by zone and shift, with exceptions against the configured limit.
Workflow: Count → Compare → Alert → Log
Check gowning at the airlock
Check the personal protective equipment (PPE) required for each zone: coveralls, hoods, masks, goggles, gloves and shoe covers. Flag missing items for review before entry.
Workflow and setup
Record: Photographic evidence of the gowning check, linked to the zone and relevant time window.
Workflow: Apply zone rule → Check PPE → Flag exception → Record
Detect tailgating at controlled doors
Compare passages with access authorisations. Flag a second person following one credential at dispensing, quality-control or bonded-store entrances.
Workflow and setup
Record: A controlled-entry exception with the relevant video, location, and authorisation context.
Workflow: Authorise → Count → Flag → Escalate
From a gowning exception to an entry decision
The reviewer checks the image against the room’s required gowning set and records the correction before entry.

Start with three workflows
Site walkthrough
Choose the locations, check camera coverage and name the response teams.
30-day pilot
Test the agreed scope. Compare alert quality, false alerts, response times and record completeness with a baseline.
Review and extend
Review results with operations and IT. Resolve issues before extending to more zones.
From command center to field team
Supervisors
Review events and site records. Assign tasks, track progress and check the closure evidence.
Teams on site
Receive the location and instructions. Follow the checklist, capture current photos and record the action in the field app.

Before your first pilot
How can computer vision support pharmaceutical plant operations?
Camera analytics can flag occupancy, gowning, access, vehicle movements and unattended items. Commando360 connects each event to a response owner and evidence record.
What evidence can pharmaceutical teams review?
Review zone entries, occupancy history, gowning exceptions, incident responses and verified attendance. Agree records, retention and access controls during assessment.
Can we use our existing cameras?
We assess feed access, camera position, lighting and visibility for each use case. Face and number plate recognition may need dedicated views.
Is this a validated pharma compliance system?
These operational workflows do not establish GMP validation or electronic-record compliance. Agree the required validation and performance testing with your quality team.
What should we measure during the pilot?
Compare confirmed detections, false alerts, response times and record completeness with a baseline. Cover representative shifts and lighting, including missed or uncertain events.
Who should join the site walkthrough?
Include security, facilities, EHS, quality, and IT. These teams can agree on zone rules, feed access, response ownership, retention, and the rollout plan.
