Streamlined event handling

The operator gets a procedure for this event, at this site, with the right people to call in the right order. Each step shows the instruction, the evidence and the contact list together, and each answer moves the workflow on, escalating, dispatching or closing as it goes. None of it has to be written up as a runbook beforehand, because it is built from configuration that already exists in the system.

Handling an event through to close

The capabilities below are what an operator uses to work an event from the moment it is queued to the moment it is closed.

Signature feature

Procedures built from your own configuration

Runbooks are the thing every operations team knows it should have and almost nobody keeps current. Sightline builds the procedure for this event, at this site, with the right people in the right order, from configuration that already exists. There is no runbook to author and no editor to learn, and it is there the first time an operator logs in. That matters because the moment you discover a procedure is missing is almost always 02:00 on a Saturday, long after the rollout is finished.

Video verification

Security events arrive with the clip already cut and attached, 10 seconds before to 20 after. The operator verifies it before anyone is dispatched.

Escalation trees

Ordered contact lists per area with role, hours, instructions and duress codes. Failed contacts auto-advance; every attempt is timestamped.

SLA & response clocks

Per-severity acknowledge and resolve timers run visibly on the card, escalate on breach, and roll into client-facing SLA reporting.

Work orders & dispatch

Raise a job from the event with the asset, location and evidence pre-filled, dispatch a technician, and track it back to close on the same record.

Event performance, measured

Standing alarms, chattering points, stale alarms and alarms per operator per hour are all measured against established alarm-management practice, so you can see which points are wasting the shift and do something about them.

Shift handover

An auto-composed handover brief: open incidents, suppressed items and their expiry, jobs in flight, and anything the next shift must watch.

Audit & compliance

Every view, decision, note and command is recorded against the event and the operator. Exportable for ISO 27001, SOC 2, uptime and insurance evidence.

Maintenance windows

Planned work suppresses the right zones for the right window, with automatic expiry and a visible reminder so nothing stays muted by accident.

Multi-site & multi-tenant

Group halls, buildings and regions. Operators see only their scope; customers can be given a read-only view of just their cages.

Mobile for the floor

The same queue and workflow on a phone for the walking tech, with QR scan on a rack to jump straight to its record.
