According to Brad Leach, director of corporate security, the Intrado security team uses their Segway PTs every day, all day long."Our goal is the be at each checkpoint in the facility at least once each hour, and the Segway PTs allow us to do this very effectively," says Leach."The machines allow us to make more rounds over a given period of time, and they completely eliminate the fatigue factor.You get a lot more mileage out of the officers if they're riding the Segway HTs, than if they're walking.Plus, they get to the alarm more quickly."
"This year we're adding a lap-top monitoring system to the Segway PT that will tell the patrol officers exactly where an alarm is sounding so they can respond immediately from anywhere in the facility," says Leach.
