Lenel & Milestone Maintenance Support Services for Security Cameras

1.3 Background: The OnGuard Access Control System (ACS) supports up to 32 doors or other access points and includes comprehensive event logging, notification and escalation.  The ACS provides configurable system status and response actions such as system lockdowns. Detailed, credential-driven user records and access history are documented in pre-defined and custom reports. The System includes:

•    Web Interface
•    Blade Support
•    Solid-State Design
•    Video Integration
•    API Support
•    Automated System Management
•    Mobile App

1.3.1 Certification requirement: To ensure continuous, secure, and optimal performance of the physical security infrastructure at WRNMMC, technicians are required to hold certifications for both the ACS and the VMS. These certifications validate the technicians' proficiency in handling the complex configuration, installation, and daily maintenance of these integrated security platforms.

For the OnGuard ACS, technicians must achieve and maintain the Lenel S2 OnGuard 8.2 Core Certification, primarily obtained through the Lenel Certified Associate (LCA) track. This training ensures technicians are fully capable of managing the backend architecture—such as database, Operating System, and SQL configurations—as well as the physical hardware and daily operational workflows like alarm monitoring and cardholder management.

For the Milestone VMS, technicians must complete the Milestone Knowledge Program, specifically securing the Technical Configuration 1 and Technical Configuration 2 certifications. This multi-tiered certification ensures that technicians possess the advanced technical proficiency required to deploy, configure, and maintain highly complex video management installations across the enterprise network.
