The document discusses the role and history of Alarm Receiving Centres (ARCs). ARCs play a crucial role in protecting people and property by remotely monitoring alarm systems on a 24/7 basis. They were originally established in the 1970s to address issues with direct alarm lines to emergency services. Today, ARCs are highly secure facilities that monitor a wide range of alarm types through various communication methods and provide an escalated emergency response as needed. The future of ARCs remains strong as technology continues to evolve and more services are offered remotely.
The structure, challenges and strategies affecting the emergency services differ in each country, as does the approach to the work of the emergency services and public authorities. This session outlined how some countries approach these challenges and heard them share their experiences first-hand.

Practical Fundamentals of E-Manufacturing, MES and SupplyLiving Online
Supply chain management involves the optimization of the way in which a company plans the production of goods or services, procures raw materials from various suppliers, manufactures the goods or services, delivers it to customers and handles returns.
E-Manufacturing starts with an order for a product and then encompasses the entire manufacturing cycle of the product. Manufacturers need a highly responsive supply chain and manufacturing system to ensure that they meet the high expectations of their customers who, in today’s economy, demand absolutely the best service, price, delivery time and product quality.
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) provide up-to-the-minute mission-critical information about production activities across the factory and supply chain via communications networks (e.g. Local Area Networks), resulting in the optimisation of activities throughout all aspects of the manufacturing process. MES accomplish this task by guiding, initiating, responding to, and reporting on plant activities in real time, by using current and accurate data. This rapid response to changing conditions, together with a focus on reducing non-profitable activities, lead to more efficient plant operations and processes.
MES reduces cycle times, levels of WIP (Work In Progress), data entry time, paperwork and scrap. It also improves utilization of plant capacity, process control quality, arrangement of plant activities, tracking of orders and customer service.
Implementation of MES invariably results in improved returns on production assets, on-time delivery, faster inventory turnover, larger net profits (through increased cost reduction) and improved cash flow.

Branndon Kelley Keynote on Cybersecurity and the Smart Utility EnergyTech2015
In an effort to make a Utility more “Smart” the business units within are requiring additional data for business intelligence, predictive and data analytics and asset optimization. To acquire the necessary data points the once “disconnected” power plants, electric grid, and the consumer now have to be connected. Utilizing sensor technology, advanced metering, and automated controls the systems within the power plant, transmission & distribution grid, and even a home or business now become vulnerable. In addition to this business-enabling concept the threat of a full-fledged cyber-attack or at the minimum cyber espionage is real. Utilities are now faced with these threats and must spend enormous amounts of capital and operational dollars to protect their assets utilizing a “not if, but when” mentality. The two competing concepts create a paradox – the more we connect the utility, the more vulnerable it be- comes -however, without connecting the utility, the less “Smart” we can be.

4. History of Alarm Receiving Centre
• Remote monitoring of alarm signals dates back to1970s.
• Originally took the form of automatic tape diallers calling 3rd
parties i.e.
Police, Owners, Neighbours, Security Guards etc.
• Used standard telephone line to call recipient.
• Played recorded message providing location and other related information.
• Used by all major security installers and emerging businesses.
• Increased use of automatic tape diallers resulted in significant demand on
emergency services.
BS5979 CAT ll ARC 24/7 Human Response
5. History of Alarm Receiving Centre
Cont’d
• Large number of alarm signals were false alarms.
• Taped message often of poor quality...information not discernable.
• Monitoring easily overcome – cutting of telephone line.
• Pressure from Police, Insurers and other Stakeholders resulted in improved
forms of communication being developed and implemented.
• Direct lines to Police stations became an option.
• Increased call volumes, need to reduce Police resource required to monitor
alarms, combined with further regulation resulted in the demise of the Direct
Line. Direct lines were subsequently abandoned and a need for 3rd
party
monitoring evolved.
• The Alarm Receiving Centre was born.
6. What is an Alarm Receiving Centre?
– Fully secure environment – Significant Financial Investment
• Building (Purpose Built)
• Access Control
• CCTV System
• Intruder Alarm/System
• Panic Alarm System
• Fire Alarm / Fire Suppression
– Communications – Multi-path routing from
independent service providers
– IT Resilience – Multiple Servers etc.
– Disaster Recovery and back up station
– Staff screening BS7858
– Full quality process, management and audit programme

8. The Role of the Alarm Receiving
Centre
• Alarm Receiving Centre’s (ARC) plays a critical part in protecting both
people and property.
• Monitors a wide range of systems on a 24/7, 365 day per year basis.
• On receipt of an alarm signal, the ARC will perform an escalation procedure
agreed by the client and in line with current regulation.
• The required response is dispatched and both people and property remain
protected.
• The key stakeholders are
– Installers.
– Customers.
– 3rd
Party maintenance providers.
– Emergency Services.
– Other key responders (security patrols, keyholders).
BS5979 CAT ll ARC 24/7 Human Response
9. Services Provided by Alarm
