How it works
Sine is a Cloud-based visitor management system used to welcome visitors, manage contractors, handle staff, and streamline workflows.
The software features an app that regular guests can download, along with a kiosk interface to welcome general visitors and a dashboard for staff to manage guests on-site.
The software allows an organisation to segment guests, depending on the reason for their visit, ensuring workplace health and safety protocols are ticked along the way.
For example, a visitor to a sports facility might trigger one set of check-in questions, while an athlete would trigger different check-in requirements, a tradesperson might need to provide licence or compliance details, and staff might be expedited through the sign-in process.
Site attendees can also sign-in using a variety of means including QR codes, photo ID for repeat guests, or geofencing onsite via the app.
Custom check-in forms can also be created, so organisations can manage their guests before they even arrive.
This feature allows the host organisation to send an email invite with check-in information and QR code to scan on arrival. Visitors can then sign any relevant non-disclosure agreements, view health and safety information, or complete induction forms prior to checking in.
When they arrive at the check-in, the relevant staff member can be notified to greet the guest, if required.
In the meantime, the Sine Pro web dashboard allows an organisation to track all visitors to a site and generate reports that can be shared with colleagues, or suppliers.
It also automatically highlights visitors who have been rejected by compliance systems or who have not checked out.
