We know that the students, faculty, and staff who make up your university's community are your most valuable assets. Keeping them safe is your top priority, and Gallagher's responsive university solutions give your community the peace of mind they need to focus on maintaining the traditions of your institution.

  • Identify, locate and respond to critical events happening on campus in real-time with Gallagher's Broadcast Notifications Solution.

We understand that universities are a forever changing landscape with new facilities often being added that create new security challenges. 
Gallagher’s security solutions are designed to grow with your institute to ensure your changing needs can always be met.

Protecting your data requires vigilance and constant monitoring, especially as cyber threats evolve along with security technology. Gallagher’s solutions are designed to mitigate these risks through a variety of defense tools that keep up with the changing technological landscape, so you don’t have to.

  • Minimize external threats through end-to-end encryption and user authentications.

Your campus is home to cutting-edge tools and resources that enable your students and faculty to unlock new potential, but can be harmful in the wrong hands. Gallagher's Command Centre manages student and employee credentials, allowing you to carefully control access to restricted areas like medical and research laboratories, equipment rooms, and sports facilities to always ensure safe use.

Managing a university with multiple buildings and campuses requires a strong allocation of resources and time management, putting a strain on your staff. But with Gallagher’s Command Centre, you can efficiently manage a distributed campus all from one centralized system, enabling you to attain facility goals that might otherwise seem impossible.

  • Reduce operational, training, and utility costs with integrated solutions that help you manage people and schedules.
  • Make your campus greener and achieve sustainability goals by controlling energy usage.
  • Automate room services and monitor elevators, accommodations, and parking from one central system.
  • Grant incoming students access credentials to relevant buildings before they set foot on campus with Gallagher's Mobile Connect App.
