Built for Public Sector, Education, and Regulated Environments
The Brass Effect, Inc. delivers state-licensed security, access control, and safety sensors designed for schools, municipalities, and regulated facilities that can’t afford guesswork.
As an approved vendor under TIPS Contract #250106 – Technology Solutions, Products, and Services, TBE::SECURITY gives you a compliant, competitively awarded path to deploy:
- Video surveillance across campuses and facilities
- Electronic access control for staff and critical areas
- IoT safety and environmental sensors in high-risk spaces
That means you can move faster without going back out to bid, while staying aligned with your procurement and audit requirements.
TBE::SECURITY works hand-in-hand with TBE::INFRASTRUCTURE, TBE::A/V, and TBE::IT so cameras, access control, and networks are designed and deployed as one integrated system – not a patchwork of vendors.
Security Camera Systems That Protect People, Property, and Evidence
We design and deploy camera systems that give you clear visibility into the spaces that matter most – from school entrances and hallways to city facilities, offices, and parking lots.
- Cover entrances, hallways, common areas, and parking lots across your campuses or facilities.
- Provide clear, usable footage for incident investigations, HR matters, or law enforcement requests.
- Standardize on proven platforms like Motorola Solutions Avigilon for long-term supportability.
- Integrate with your existing network and storage so you’re not bolting on another siloed system.
- Design for growth – add cameras, sites, or analytics over time without starting over.
Access Control That Protects Doors, Staff, and Sensitive Areas
Electronic access control gives you more than just locked doors. It lets you control who can go where, when – and provides an audit trail when questions come up.
Protect front entrances, staff-only areas, IDF/MDF rooms, and storage with controlled access.
Assign badges or credentials to staff, contractors, and vendors with time-based permissions.
Integrate with video systems so events at a door are tied to actual footage.
Support lockdown procedures and after-hours policies for schools and public facilities.
Provide reports and audit trails to support investigations, compliance, and board-level transparency.
IoT Safety & Environmental Sensors for High-Risk Areas
IoT sensors extend your safety posture into spaces where cameras either can’t go or aren’t enough – restrooms, locker rooms, hallways, gyms, cafeterias, and high-traffic common areas.
- Vape and THC detection in restrooms, locker rooms, and other private areas where cameras are not appropriate.
- Gunshot detection and acoustic monitoring in gyms, cafeterias, auditoriums, and large gathering spaces.
- Environmental monitoring for temperature, humidity, air quality, and water leaks in critical rooms or equipment areas.
- Real-time alerts to your security, facilities, or IT teams via dashboards, email, or SMS.
- Integration with existing cameras and access control for a unified response.
We help you choose and integrate the right sensors for your risk profile and budget – no over-selling, no gadget-of-the-month approach.
Balancing Security and Privacy the Right Way
More cameras and sensors shouldn’t turn your campus or workplace into a surveillance trap. We design systems that strengthen safety without crossing the line.
We help you:
- Define where cameras and sensors should and should not be placed (no cameras in restrooms or truly private areas).
- Align retention and access to footage with your legal, HR, and policy requirements.
- Communicate clearly with staff and stakeholders about what’s being monitored and why.
The goal is simple: people feel safer, not watched.
A Practical Approach to Taking Work Off Your Plate
We start with a straightforward discovery process: what’s in place today, where you’re feeling the most pressure, and which outcomes matter most in the next 6–12 months. From there, we design a support plan that’s realistic for your budget and staff.
- Assess – Environment review, risks, and current tooling
- Align – Define scope, support model, and success metrics
- Execute – Onboarding, documentation, and ongoing support
No overpromising. No “magic” stack. Just a clear plan, consistent communication, and measurable improvement.
