SCG have been engaged by Building and Asset Services, on behalf of the Queensland Police Service, to provide a security system audit and report for Gympie Watchhouse and Police Station.

Gympie Watchhouse and Police Station is an operational 24 hour facility, regularly holding detainees overnight.

SCG is responsible for documenting an upgrade of the existing electronic security systems, to comply with the current QPS standards.

The existing systems consisted of a DVR/VCR CCTV recording system, digital intercommunication system, electronic access control system and intruder detection system.

SCG has been engaged by Phillips Smith Conwell, on behalf of QLD Building and Asset Services, to provide a security and communications design for the new Bowen Police Station and Watchhouse and assist in the decommissioning and demolition of the existing facility.

SCG is responsible for the design of the telecommunications, radio services infrastructure, intruder detection, electronic access control, CCTV and audio visual systems.

SCG has been engaged by the Queensland Department of Housing and Public Works, on behalf of the Department of Justice and Attorney-General, to implement a program of works to address obsolescence issues with perimeter electronic security systems and associated electrical systems in order to enhance safety and security, and to extend the useable life of Woodford Correctional Facility.  This includes detailed design and oversight of the implementation in a live operational environment.

SCG was engaged by Building Management and Works (BMW) to undertake a review of the CCTV system at the Joondalup Police Station.

The review would provide BMW and Western Australia Police (WAPOL) with an understanding of the current CCTV system at the station focusing on three key areas, which included:

• Technical Review of the installed systems from an obsolesces and equipment life cycle perspective
• Performance Review to assess the operation of the system and quality of the existing camera views. This would include assessment of general system operation (i.e. history and fault logs) and review of the image quality and performance of the existing camera views (i.e. camera by camera commentary)
• Coverage Review to assess the extent of the existing CCTV camera coverage for compliance with the current WAPOL Building Code.
