Control centre & DIS Command platform
A control centre that sees, decides and proves
Our control centre is located at our head office in Dakar. Staffed 24/7, it is not shared with any other provider. It runs on DIS Command, the platform we develop and operate ourselves: every shift check-in, every patrol and every inspection leaves a verifiable record.

What your security provider should be able to show you
A security contract should be judged on what can be verified. Compare with your current arrangements.
| Criterion | What we often see | With DIS |
|---|---|---|
| Attendance | Reported by the provider, impossible to check | Shift check-in photographed and geolocated, at every handover |
| Patrols | Written in a paper log | NFC tag at every checkpoint, missed checkpoints detected automatically |
| Inspections | Rare, with no written record | At least one spot check per officer per month, rated and photographed |
| Absences | Empty post while waiting for a replacement | Replacement within two hours, by an officer trained on the site |
| Alarms | Footage reviewed after the event | Live verification by an operator, response from the nearest location |
| Reporting | A monthly report, if any | Real-time client portal and operations report |
