Overview

Mercury Security & Facilities Management is a leading provider of integrated services across commercial, retail, and healthcare sectors in Ireland. Their teams deliver everything from 24/7 security patrols to high-compliance cleaning and maintenance across hundreds of client locations.

But with growing service complexity came mounting operational challenges – fragmented communication, slow issue resolution, and limited visibility.

That’s when Mercury turned to Intelocate.

Challenges

Operating at scale exposed Mercury to multiple friction points:

• Disjointed Communication
  Guards, facility managers, and contractors relied on a mix of emails, texts, and phone calls – making it hard to track ownership and accountability.
  
  

• Slow Incident Resolution
  Faulty equipment or missed patrols could take hours – or days – to escalate and resolve.
  
  

• Limited Visibility & Compliance Tracking
  Without real-time dashboards or digital patrol logs, Mercury had minimal insight into day-to-day performance.
  
  

• Manual, Inefficient Task Management
  Work orders and compliance checks were handled manually – leaving room for delays, errors, and missed follow-ups.
  
  

Intelocate’s Solution

Intelocate equipped Mercury with a unified operations platform, enabling real-time task management, issue resolution, compliance tracking, and team communication – all in one place.

For Security Services:

• Mobile-First Incident Logging
  Guards report incidents, upload photos, and communicate – all via mobile.

• NFC-Based Patrolling
  Every patrol is logged and timestamped via NFC checkpoints – ensuring verifiable, compliant security rounds.
  
  

• Automated Task Routing and Custom Workflows
  Incidents are auto-assigned to the right team or supervisor – eliminating delays and manual triaging.
  
  

• Client-Facing Reporting
  Real-time performance dashboards help Mercury maintain transparency and build client trust.
  
  

For Facility Management:

• Structured Task Workflows
  Issues are logged with categories, deadlines, and SLA tracking for better accountability.

• Recurring Task Automation
  Regular cleaning, inspections, and maintenance are auto-scheduled and assigned.
  
  

• Centralized Communications
  Each task has a dedicated conversation thread – no more lost emails or side chats.
