Transforming Device Management in Justice & Police

As justice and policing organisations embrace digital transformation, the need for secure, efficient, and automated device management has never been greater. Managing mission-critical devices, data, and evidence requires solutions that not only protect assets but also streamline workflows and improve accountability.

Empowering Digital Justice with Smart Locker Services

LapSafe®'s smart locker services provide a centralised, automated solution for managing IT devices, evidence-handling tools, and specialist policing equipment. Whether tracking body-worn cameras, laptops, radios, or even firearms and tasers, our system ensures that devices are:

  • Securely stored with role-based access control
  • Fully charged and ready for use with intelligent power management
  • Tracked in real-time to improve efficiency and reduce loss

By replacing manual processes with automated workflows, justice and policing organisations can ensure that officers and staff have the right equipment, at the right time, without administrative delays.

Key Smart Locker Services for Justice & Policing

1. Automated Device Loaning & Returns

Our self-service smart lockers eliminate the need for manual equipment distribution. Officers and staff can collect and return devices at any time using secure authentication, ensuring availability without requiring IT or administrative support.

  • 24/7 access to critical devices
  • Automated loaning and returns reduce staff workload
  • Custom access permissions ensure only authorised personnel can retrieve specific equipment
  • Real-time tracking for complete visibility over issued devices

2. Intelligent Charging & Power Management

LapSafe®'s industry-leading smart charging technology ensures that all devices are:

  • Charged simultaneously for maximum availability
  • Protected against overcharging to extend battery life
  • Powered efficiently to reduce energy consumption and support sustainability goals

Unlike traditional charging methods, our ONARKEN® software optimises power usage by detecting charge levels and distributing power intelligently eliminating the risk of downtime due to uncharged devices.

3. Secure Storage with Controlled Access

The justice and policing sectors handle highly sensitive data and equipment. LapSafe®'s high-security smart lockers provide:

  • Multi-factor authentication (PIN, RFID, biometrics) for controlled access
  • Automated audit trails for compliance and accountability
  • Alerts and notifications to monitor access and detect anomalies

4. Seamless Integration with Existing IT Systems

LapSafe®'s ONARKEN® smart locker software is designed to work with existing policing and justice IT systems. Our solutions integrate with:

  • Asset management platforms for real-time tracking
  • Incident reporting systems to ensure accurate audit trails
  • Security protocols such as Active Directory for user authentication

This means IT teams can monitor device usage, automate reporting, and ensure policy compliance without additional complexity.
