- BluSKY is a Web-Cloud Visitor Management solution
- All you need is a browser and an Internet connection and you are in business
- BluSKY VMS is an open HW/SW platform
- It runs on any hardware, requires no software, can use any browser and any peripheral with a proper driver
- You can preauthorize and admit visitors from anywhere with any device
- With a smartphone, tablet or full computer
- At a guard desk, at a loading dock, at a reception station, at a security shack, in an office or at any other location

- Integrated out-of-the-BØX with BluSKY Access Control
- Uses the same personnel database as access control
- Visitors credentials can be given any access level in the system
- The system can also run as a standalone Visitor Access System or run alongside any other access system
- There are two steps to BluSKY visitor management
- Authorization/Invitation
- Admission
- Visitors/Vendors are preauthorized via the web
- The preauthorization of visitors/vendors is the fastest and most secure way to admit a visitor/vendor into a facility. It prevents visitor lines from forming in a lobby and provides a better guest experience.
- 20 seconds to preauthorize a visitor/vendor
- 20 seconds to admit them
- Employees and administrators are granted permissions to preauthorize visitors/vendors
- Anyone not preauthorized is processed as an unannounced visitor/vendor
-Generally this is a much longer process
- Vendor companies and their employees can be preauthorized from the BluSKY vendor list
- Vendor companies have additional attributes to such as vendor and certificate of insurance (COI) status to aid in processing of vendors
- To preauthorize a visitor select the Visitor Preauthorization menu item and fill out a few simple fields
- Fill in the visitor’s name and affiliation and click save
- If you need to,
- Change the date and time of the visit
- Change the destination floor
- Include the visitor’s email if Fast Pass is available
- Add an optional message for admission processing
- Indicate if you want to be notified via email when your guest checks in
- Indicate visitor type if different than the default
- Select an access level if different than the default (only if the VMS is integrated with an access control system)
- Change the host if making a request on behalf of someone else
- Checkmark “weekend access” to permit access during weekend days
- Checkmark “Group” if the visitor is part of a group. Optionally name the group.
- Common information about the group visit is shared across all visitors in the group.
- Select the plus sign to add multiple visitors
- Easily import large groups of visitors from a spreadsheet
- Automatic visitor check against Watchlist before records are saved in the database
- Similar records are flagged for further scrutiny
- Notifications are sent to appropriate parties
- To preauthorize a vendor select the Vendor Preauthorization menu item and fill out a few simple fields.
- Note: If you don’t have a vendor company defined then proceed as a regular visitor preauthorization; only the vendor company name is needed in the affiliation field
- If you have a Vendor company defined, select the vendor company along with any employees and click save
If you need to,
- Change the date and time of the visit
- Change the destination floor
- Include the vendor’s email if Fast Pass is available
- Add an optional message for admission processing
