Shopwatch, BCRP and BID
Modern Radio Networks for Shopwatch & BCRP Schemes
Connect retailers, wardens, security teams and control rooms using centrally managed Push-to-Talk radios. One network for the whole scheme, however many independent businesses take part.
For: Participating retailers · Town-centre wardens · Security teams · CCTV and control rooms · BID and BCRP staff
Sound familiar?
What makes it hard today
- Many independent businesses that all need to be on the same scheme radio network
- Radios handed back, lost or left with people who have moved on
- An ageing scheme radio system that is hard to extend
- No easy way for the scheme manager to see who is on the network
With RevoNet
One radio network for the whole operation
- One centrally managed radio network for the whole scheme
- Members approved and added by the scheme administrator, and removed as membership changes
- Talkgroups for retailers, wardens, security teams and the control room
- A lost or returned radio can be locked out from the control room
- Coverage across the whole town centre and beyond
- Radios supplied with managed RevoSIM connectivity, if you would like it
In practice
How teams use it
- Retailers and scheme members
- Members share a talkgroup, so a shop can alert its neighbours and the wardens quickly, and everyone hears the same message at once.
- Wardens and security teams
- Give wardens and security their own talkgroup, with a link to the retailer talkgroup when they need it.
- CCTV and control rooms
- The control room joins from a web browser, talks to any talkgroup and can see who is online.
- Scheme management
- The scheme manager adds new members, removes those who leave and looks after the radios from one place.
The RevoNet system
Radios, connectivity and control, managed together
Getting started
Try it on a real operation
Start with a small group of members and your wardens or control room. Request trial radios and we will set up talkgroups that suit your scheme, then you can add members as more businesses join.
