Overview

The University of Canterbury (UoC) in New Zealand, home to 26,000 students, faced significant challenges with their previous body camera system. Seeking a reliable and effective solution to enhance staff safety, provide irrefutable evidence, and improve situational awareness, UoC adopted Zepcam body-worn cameras. This case study explores their journey from problematic legacy systems to a seamlessly integrated and highly effective security solution.

The Challenge: Unreliable Technology and Lack of Context

Before implementing Zepcam, UoC’s security team relied on an older brand of bodycams that presented numerous operational hurdles:

• Battery Issues: Frequent battery problems, including bulging and unreliability.
• Operational Difficulty: Cameras were hard to operate, leading to instances where staff believed they were recording when they weren’t.
• Footage Retrieval: Extracting footage was a cumbersome process, creating more problems than it solved.
• Lack of Real-time Awareness: The previous system lacked live-feed capabilities, hindering the control room’s ability to respond to incidents in real-time.

With a large student population spread across campus and surrounding flats, and an increasing scope of responsibilities including student welfare checks and mental health patient transport, UoC critically needed a robust and dependable bodycam solution.

The Solution: Zepcam’s Advanced Features and Seamless Integration, Supported by Tactical Solutions

UoC initially deployed six Zepcam units and, impressed by their performance, quickly expanded to equip all patrol staff. Tactical Solutions, as the local distributor, played a crucial role in getting UoC up and running with the Zepcam system and continues to provide ongoing support. Zepcam addressed UoC’s challenges through several key features:

• Ease of Use and Reliability: Zepcam cameras proved easy to operate, search, and were consistently reliable, drastically reducing issues experienced with previous systems.
• Live Feed Capability: The live feed feature allows the control room operator to see incidents unfold in real-time, enabling immediate and accurate relay of information to police and other responders.
• GPS Tracking: Integrated GPS tracking provides precise location data for security personnel, enhancing their safety.
• Pre-Event Recording: Zepcam’s ability to capture two minutes of footage before the record button is pressed is crucial for providing vital context, ensuring no critical moments are missed.
• Seamless Integration: Through the expertise of Tactical Solutions, the Zepcam units seamlessly integrate into UoC’s existing Geutebrück CCTV system, creating a unified security network of over 700 cameras. Tactical Solutions acted as the vital integrator, ensuring Zepcam and Geutebrück systems communicate effectively.
• Staff ID Card Linking: The system links staff ID cards to cameras via a scanner, ensuring clear documentation of who used which camera and when, which is invaluable for evidential purposes.
• Redaction Tools: Built-in redaction tools allow UoC to manage privacy concerns effectively, particularly for Official Information Act requests or when footage needs to be shared externally.

The Benefits: Enhanced Safety, Accountability, and Efficiency

The adoption of Zepcam has yielded significant benefits for the University of Canterbury:

• Force Multiplier: Zepcam acts as “another team member,” enabling a small security team to manage a large student population more effectively. The control room’s real-time visibility provides a powerful layer of support without staff needing to call for help.
• Irrefutable Evidence and Context: Bodycam footage provides crucial context, showing the lead-up to incidents, not just the aftermath. This has been invaluable in disproving false complaints against staff, particularly during protests, and has impressed police.
• Improved Incident Management: Live feeds and GPS tracking allow for better coordination and response during incidents, enhancing overall safety for both staff and students.
• Protection for Staff: In an environment where staff are frequently filmed by the public, UoC’s own footage protects their team by providing an accurate account of events.
• Cost-Effective Safety: Ken notes that while there are ongoing costs, Zepcam is a “small price for a lot of added value” when compared to the university’s overall CCTV expenditure.

Advice for Other Organisations

Ken’s advice to other universities and organisations considering body-worn cameras is clear:

“In today’s environment, where everyone has a camera and can film our staff, it’s essential to have our own footage. That way we can provide context and protect our people.”

He emphasizes the importance of features like pre-event recording and live feed capabilities as crucial safety layers, particularly when managing large gatherings or high-risk situations.

Conclusion

The University of Canterbury’s experience demonstrates how Zepcam body-worn cameras have transformed their security operations, moving from a reactive to a proactive stance. By providing real-time awareness, irrefutable evidence, and enhanced staff safety, Zepcam has become an indispensable tool in managing campus security effectively and accountably. With the continued partnership of Tactical Solutions, UoC continues to evolve its use of the technology, looking forward to future integrations like the panic button feature.

Operating in alpine environments places constant pressure on both people and equipment. Land search and rescue teams and ski guides must perform in conditions that change fast and often without warning. Clothing must support movement, regulate temperature and protect against wind rain and snow.

Arc'teryx PRO is designed for these exact demands. It is built for professionals who work in harsh terrain and need reliable performance every day. The range focuses on function first with materials and construction that support real operational use.

Performance in Harsh Conditions

Weather in New Zealand alpine regions can shift quickly. Cold wind wet snow and heavy rain all create risk. Arc’teryx PRO garments use advanced fabrics that provide strong weather protection while still allowing breathability. This balance helps prevent overheating during movement and reduces heat loss during rest periods.

Durability is also critical. Search and rescue teams often move through dense bush rock and uneven ground. Ski guides operate in abrasive snow conditions with repeated wear. Arc’teryx PRO garments are built to withstand this type of use over time without loss of performance.

Designed for Movement and Efficiency

Efficiency matters in the field. Every movement should feel natural and unrestricted. Arc’teryx PRO uses ergonomic patterning that supports full range of motion. This reduces fatigue and allows users to focus on the task rather than their gear.

Weight is also carefully managed. Lighter systems reduce strain over long missions. At the same time garments retain strength and protection where it is needed most. This balance supports both speed and endurance.

Layering Systems That Adapt

Layering is essential for alpine operations. Conditions can change within hours or even minutes. Arc’teryx PRO is designed as a system that allows users to adapt quickly.

Base layers manage moisture. Mid layers provide insulation. Outer layers protect against wind and rain. Each layer works together to maintain comfort and performance across a wide range of conditions.

This flexibility is key for search and rescue teams working long hours and ski guides managing varied terrain and weather.

Trusted by Professionals

Arc’teryx PRO is used by professionals who depend on their equipment in critical situations. Reliability is not optional in these environments. Gear must perform as expected every time.

For organisations responsible for safety and response this level of confidence is essential. It supports better decision making and helps reduce operational risk.

Available in New Zealand

Arc’teryx PRO is available exclusively through Tactical Solutions in New Zealand. The range supports land search and rescue teams ski guides and other alpine professionals who require proven performance in demanding environments.

Value

Arc’teryx PRO commands a higher price point because it is built as a mission critical system rather than standard outdoor clothing. Each garment is designed to solve real problems in harsh environments where failure carries real risk. This focus on protection mobility and reliability means the product is engineered to a much higher standard from the outset.

The value is also driven by precision design and advanced construction. Features such as articulated fit, high stitch count and specialised materials improve durability and long term performance. This results in gear that lasts longer and performs consistently under professional use rather than needing frequent replacement.

Significant investment in research and development also sits behind every product. Multi-year design cycles, field testing and collaboration with search and rescue teams guides and other professionals ensure each piece performs as part of a complete system. This approach reduces risk improves efficiency and delivers stronger value over the full life of the garment.

Metal detection remains a core component of physical security across government, corrections, courts, transport and critical infrastructure environments. While threats have evolved over time, the fundamentals remain the same. Screening must be reliable, repeatable and proportionate to the risk profile of the site.

CEIA metal detection systems are designed around this principle. Rather than a single device attempting to suit every scenario, CEIA offers a structured range of walk through metal detectors and hand held detectors that scale from entry level screening through to high discrimination and electronic device detection. This approach allows organisations to align capability with real operational requirements.

Entry Level Walk Through Screening with HiPE Plus

The HiPE Plus is widely used as an entry level walk through metal detector for environments where no specific regulatory standard is mandated. It provides consistent metal detection performance with high throughput and low operational complexity.

This makes the HiPE Plus well suited to public venues, corporate buildings, schools and events where screening is required but where advanced discrimination or contraband detection is not the primary concern. Operators benefit from simple configuration, reliable alarm signalling and minimal training overhead. In these environments, the priority is flow, visibility and deterrence rather than forensic detection.

PMD2 Walk Through Metal Detectors as a Longstanding Government Standard

For many years, the PMD2 series has served as a government minimum standard across multiple jurisdictions. Available in both panel and elliptical configurations, the PMD2 delivers proven detection performance with uniform coverage across the full body profile.

The elliptical variant improves ergonomics and throughput by guiding people naturally through the detection field, while the panel configuration suits fixed installations where space and control are priorities. These systems have been trusted across courts, custodial facilities and government buildings due to their consistency, durability and predictable alarm behaviour.

The PMD2 remains an effective solution where the focus is on detecting metallic weapons and prohibited items without the need for advanced discrimination between benign and harmful objects.

Emerging Threats and the Shift Toward the SMD600

As threat profiles change, screening requirements are becoming more nuanced. Modern environments increasingly demand the ability to discriminate between everyday metal items and objects that pose genuine risk. This is where the SMD600 series is becoming the new reference standard.

The SMD600 is a high sensitivity, multi zone walk through metal detector that combines advanced detection with high discrimination. It is fully compliant with the NIJ-0601.02 law enforcement standard, which sets defined requirements for sensitivity, discrimination and immunity in correctional and law enforcement environments.

Unlike basic detectors, the SMD600 allows personal items such as belts, keys, watches and coins to pass without generating nuisance alarms, while still reliably detecting metallic weapons. This significantly improves throughput while reducing secondary screening workload.

MI2 Detection for Electronic Devices and Contraband Control

In environments where controlling electronics is as important as detecting weapons, the SMD600 can be upgraded with the MI2 sensor. The MI2 function enables the detection of even the smallest electronic devices, including miniaturised mobile phones and low metal content electronics.

This capability is particularly valuable in correctional facilities, data sensitive environments, secure meeting spaces and locations where unauthorised electronics present safety or security risks. The system differentiates between metal threats and electronic devices using distinct optical and acoustic signalling, which simplifies operator response during secondary screening

The result is a screening process that remains efficient while extending detection capability beyond traditional metal objects.

Hand Held Metal Detectors for Secondary Screening

Hand held metal detectors are a natural and essential pairing with walk through metal detectors. When an individual triggers an alarm, secondary screening must be fast, accurate and respectful.

CEIA hand held detectors such as the PD140 series are designed for this purpose. They provide uniform detection of magnetic and non-magnetic metals, high immunity to external interference and ergonomic designs that reduce operator fatigue. Models such as the PD140N and PD140E comply with NIJ-0602.02 standards, ensuring consistent performance across security environments

For environments requiring minimal divestiture, variants like the PD140ND are optimised to detect threats and miniaturised electronics while discriminating against metal elements found in clothing, including bras. This supports dignified screening without compromising security outcomes.

A Layered Screening Approach That Scales

Effective screening is rarely achieved through a single device. CEIA systems are designed to operate as part of a layered security model. Walk through detectors provide primary screening, while hand held detectors support precise secondary checks when required.

This layered approach reduces bottlenecks, improves detection confidence and allows security teams to adapt screening posture based on threat level, environment and operational tempo. From entry level screening through to advanced contraband control, CEIA systems provide a scalable path rather than a one size fits all solution.

CEIA Metal Detection Solutions Supported by Tactical Solutions

Tactical Solutions supplies and supports CEIA metal detection systems across New Zealand. This includes assistance with system selection, deployment, operator training and lifecycle support. Choosing the correct detector is not just about specifications. It is about matching capability to environment, threat profile and operational reality.

From HiPE Plus through PMD2 to SMD600 with MI2 capability, CEIA offers a clear progression that allows organisations to invest with confidence as requirements evolve.

Situational awareness is critical in modern emergency response. Fire, policing, border control and public safety agencies operate in environments where decisions must be made quickly using accurate information. When awareness is incomplete or delayed, risk increases and coordination becomes harder to maintain.

Many agencies still rely on paper notes, radio updates and disconnected digital tools to manage incidents. These approaches limit visibility during live operations and make it difficult to build a shared understanding across teams. They also reduce the quality of post-incident intelligence, which is essential for learning and accountability. Unblur IRIS was developed as a situational awareness platform that provides a single operational picture across the full lifecycle of an incident.

Real-Time Situational Awareness for Emergency Services

Effective situational awareness depends on understanding what is happening as an incident unfolds. Unblur IRIS centralises live operational data into one shared view. This includes responder locations, hazard markers, live video feeds and key incident information. Commanders and operational teams can see the same information at the same time, reducing uncertainty and miscommunication.

For Fire and Emergency operations, this improves awareness of crew positions, sector boundaries and emerging risks. For Police and Customs, it supports coordination across wider geographic areas where teams may be dispersed. A shared operational picture enables faster decision-making and safer task execution.

Multi-Agency Coordination Using a Common Operating Picture

Large incidents often involve multiple agencies working together under pressure. Fire, Police, Customs, medical services, and infrastructure operators must coordinate tasks while maintaining clear lines of responsibility. Unblur IRIS supports multi-agency coordination by providing a common operating picture that authorised users can access in real time.

This reduces reliance on fragmented communication channels that can slow response and create gaps in understanding. Instead of parallel briefings and separate systems, agencies align around a shared view of the incident. This approach supports unified command principles while allowing each agency to operate within its established role.

Post-Incident Intelligence and Operational Review

After an incident, accurate post-incident intelligence is essential. Traditional debriefs often depend on handwritten notes or individual recollection, which can be incomplete. Unblur IRIS automatically records actions, decisions, task assignments and contextual information during the response.

This creates a reliable digital record that supports structured post-incident analysis. Agencies can review timelines, assess decision-making and identify opportunities for improvement. This supports training, audit requirements and continuous operational learning without increasing reporting workload for frontline staff.

Incident Management Software Designed for Operational Use

Unblur IRIS is designed for real operational environments. Features such as live video streaming, map-based hazard marking and automated incident logging are built to support responders without slowing them down. The platform integrates multiple information sources into a single interface that remains usable during high-pressure situations.

By reducing tool switching and manual data capture, the system supports focus, safety and coordination. The technology enhances existing incident management practices rather than replacing them.

Situational Awareness Technology for New Zealand Agencies

New Zealand emergency services operate within a coordinated incident management framework that relies on shared awareness and collaboration. Unblur IRIS supports this framework by delivering a digital situational awareness solution that works across agencies and jurisdictions.

Delivered through Tactical Solutions, Unblur is supported locally with an understanding of New Zealand public sector requirements and operational conditions. This ensures the platform aligns with existing command structures, governance expectations and deployment models.

A Practical Platform for Modern Incident Response

Unblur IRIS does not replace established response processes. It strengthens them by improving situational awareness, enabling multi-agency coordination and delivering reliable post-incident intelligence. For Fire and Emergency New Zealand, Police, Customs and other public safety agencies, it provides a practical path toward clearer decision-making and stronger operational outcomes.

Duty key lanyards are simple tools, but they play a vital role in the everyday workflow of police, security personnel, first responders and tactical operators. When you’re on duty, quick access to keys and small tools matters just as much as access to larger equipment. A rugged, purpose-built key lanyard means you never fumble at a critical moment and it helps prevent loss or misplacement of essential items.

Why a Good Key Lanyard Matters

A key lanyard might look basic, but in demanding environments it must withstand real wear and tear. A quality lanyard keeps your keys or small tools secure while giving you fast access without cluttering your belt or pockets. For professionals who must focus on the task at hand - whether responding to a call, entering a vehicle or moving quickly through a scene - something as simple as a lanyard can make a measurable difference in workflow efficiency.

Designed for Tactical Environments

Duty key lanyards are different from standard everyday lanyards. Products in this category are built with rugged materials like heavy-duty webbing, reinforced stitching, metal or quick-release hardware and tactical attachment points that integrate seamlessly with belts, tactical vests or bag systems. They are designed to withstand heat, moisture, abrasion and repeated movement without failing.

Enhanced Security Without Compromise

Loss of keys can result in delays, security gaps or compromised access control. Tactical key lanyards put security first by ensuring keys remain attached to your person, reducing the risk of misplacement or theft. Many options feature locking clips, reinforced D-rings, snap-hooks or MOLLE-compatible attachments that keep keys secure yet accessible.

Fast Access When It Counts

Professionals often need to transition quickly between tasks. Whether unlocking a door at a critical moment, accessing a vehicle or securing a piece of equipment, the ability to swiftly retrieve keys is crucial. A well-designed lanyard allows smooth, controlled access without having to fish through pockets or tool kits.

Integration With Duty Systems

Many duty key lanyards are compatible with belts, duty rigs, chest rigs, pack systems and MOLLE attachments. This makes them a flexible choice for professionals who use layered gear setups.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential in safety-critical environments where risk is real and consequences are significant. In frontline, custodial and operational settings, PPE supports worker safety, regulatory compliance and business continuity every day. Many organisations struggle with how they manage PPE after issuing it. As workforces grow and operations spread across multiple locations, traditional PPE tracking methods become increasingly difficult to maintain.

Manual registers, spreadsheets and rare stocktakes do not suit large, distributed organisations. Over time, these approaches lead to reduced visibility, inconsistent records and unnecessary administrative effort. RFID PPE management addresses these challenges by providing a smarter, more reliable way to manage PPE as a business-critical asset.

Where Traditional PPE Asset Management Falls Short

Most organisations begin with sensible processes for issuing and recording PPE. At a small scale, these methods appear to work well. As staff change roles, teams move equipment between sites and visibility drops between audits. PPE stocktakes become disruptive events rather than routine checks, often requiring staff time, coordination and operational compromise.

When PPE data is incomplete or outdated, secondary issues emerge. Teams replace equipment early when they lack clear condition or location data. Duplicate purchases occur to compensate for uncertainty. Safety teams spend time fixing records, while procurement teams make reactive purchases. These inefficiencies increase cost and introduce compliance risk, particularly in government and enterprise environments.

How iTrackPPE Changes PPE Tracking

iTrackPPE takes a different approach by integrating RFID identification directly into the PPE lifecycle. RFID technology lets teams identify PPE fast and accurately without manual checks. This enables faster audits, improved asset visibility and more reliable data across sites.

The technology supports frontline environments without adding complexity. PPE remains PPE first, while RFID works quietly in the background. This matters because PPE tracking systems that depend heavily on manual input tend to degrade over time. iTrackPPE supports consistent RFID PPE management regardless of workforce size, location or operational pressure.

Tactical Solutions delivers iTrackPPE locally as the exclusive New Zealand partner, aligned with NZ safety standards.

Spend to Save: The Real Cost of PPE Management

Some organisations view RFID PPE solutions as a higher upfront investment. When evaluated through total cost of ownership, the value becomes clear. Many organisations recover the investment through time savings alone. One person can now complete PPE stocktakes in minutes instead of days.

The system reduces admin work, enables frequent audits, and frees safety teams to manage risk. Improved PPE visibility also reduces unnecessary replacement and over-ordering. When organisations know exactly what PPE they have, where it is located and when it needs replacing, purchasing decisions become planned rather than reactive.

Over time, reduced man hours, fewer emergency purchases and improved planning combine to deliver measurable cost savings.

Automating PPE Stocktakes with RFID

Traditional PPE stocktakes are often treated as major operational events. They require planning, staff availability and sometimes reduced operational capacity. As a result, they occur less frequently than ideal, increasing the likelihood of data gaps and compliance issues.

RFID PPE management transforms stocktaking into a routine process. Regular audits can be performed with minimal disruption, improving accuracy and accountability. Issues are identified earlier, when they are easier and less costly to resolve. This supports stronger governance while reducing pressure on both frontline and support teams.

Real Outcomes for End Users

Across emergency services, law enforcement and custodial environments, organisations using RFID PPE report consistent outcomes. Time spent managing PPE is reduced. Confidence in compliance reporting improves. Conversations between safety, operations and procurement teams become clearer and more productive.

Frontline staff benefit from fewer interruptions and simpler processes. Safety managers gain reliable data that supports audit readiness. Procurement teams are able to plan with confidence rather than respond to uncertainty. Importantly, these improvements are achieved without changing how staff interact with their PPE day to day.

RFID PPE Management Designed for New Zealand Organisations

Through Tactical Solutions, iTrackPPE is delivered with local expertise, support and long-term partnership. This ensures RFID PPE management aligns with New Zealand compliance requirements, procurement frameworks and operating conditions. Local availability and accountability remain critical when PPE is mission-critical and must perform reliably over time.

A Smarter Approach to PPE Asset Management

iTrackPPE does not replace sound safety practice. It strengthens it by improving asset visibility, reducing manual effort and supporting accountability at scale. By adopting RFID PPE management, organisations reduce ongoing cost, save time and improve confidence in their safety systems. This allows teams to focus less on managing equipment and more on protecting the people who rely on it every day.
