At RelishFresh, IoT is omnipresent, Text:
The food company RelishFresh works smart: all refrigerators and stock inventories are monitored via sensors. For example, if the temperature in one of the refrigerators cooling perishable food exceeds or falls below a certain value, an alarm is automatically triggered and the responsible employees are contacted via text message.

But what if none of the responsible employees can be reached?, Text:
From time to time, however, it happens that employees are already busy with other important tasks and do not notice the incoming message in time. Just recently, when none of the employees could be on site in time, a defective refrigerator was noticed too late and some food had to be disposed of. To avoid this in the future, RelishFresh wants to adapt its IoT workflow so that important alerts no longer go unnoticed.

DAKS provides for secure accessibility, Text:
With the DAKS alarm server, important alarms triggered by sensors can now be sent directly to the responsible people via a phone call. DAKS calls employees until someone confirms to take care of the error message. If no such confirmation is made, the alarm is escalated to the store manager and ongoing phone calls are interrupted for the important alarm. The person in charge is informed in any case – even if they are in a meeting or have set their phone to "do not disturb".

In the world of IoT (Internet of Things), machines, sensors and other devices can be networked virtually and physically. The resulting "digital nervous system" can help to make processes more tangible and automated, to optimize costs and to increase customer satisfaction. For companies, IoT represents an enormous technological advantage with almost infinite possibilities.
Due to process automation and increasingly smart and networked machines, the flood of big data is becoming ever greater and must now be brought to the decision-maker in a meaningful way. Every step into the networked world of nodes may still lead into nowhere when an important message does not reach the responsible person in time. The DAKS alarm server makes it possible to take the progress made by IoT into communication.

The nursing home "Morning Sun" is already working with IoT, Text:
In the nursing home "Morning Sun" many sensors have already been installed that sense, for example, when someone has fallen or a resident with dementia is about to run away. If a sensor mat registers that a resident has fallen out of bed, an alarm is automatically triggered via the coupled nurse call system and a signal light is illuminated in the corridor. Sometimes, however, the caregiver is already attending to someone else and doesn't notice the lit lamp until much later. The nursing home now wants to adapt its IoT workflow so that important alarms can be responded to more quickly.

DAKS always ensures that someone is reached, Text:
The DAKS alarm server forwards the alarm triggered by the fall mat's sensors directly to the responsible caregivers by phone call. It calls the relevant persons in parallel until someone confirms to take care of the alarm by pressing a button. If this confirmation is not received, DAKS forwards the alarm to the care manager. Telephone calls already in progress can be interrupted for this purpose, and even if their phone is in "do not disturb" mode, the alarm call is put through.

The Internet of Things (IoT) makes it possible to link "things" such as devices and sensors via the internet. The number of networked devices is growing steadily, and this process-optimizing technology is also increasingly being used in hospitals and care facilities. The aim in the healthcare sector is to clarify and automate processes, optimize costs and improve the quality of care.
The world of IoT promises nearly limitless possibilities. But especially when human lives are at stake, the technology used must not only be practical and smart, but most importantly it must be safe. The collected data from various devices must be brought to the decision-maker in a meaningful way so that responsible and timely action can be taken. After all, no matter how clever a step is taken in the networked world of "nodes", it will ultimately be in vain if an important message does not reach the person responsible soon enough. With the DAKS alarm server, the head start provided by IoT is carried over into communication.

- In the event of an alarm, DAKS handles many urgent tasks simultaneously and reliably. The option of alarm confirmation and the automated telephone conference calls provide a constant overview of the entire process, which is also fully logged.
- Some dangerous situations do not even arise with DAKS: it reports when particularly important access points (e.g. personnel doors) are open and allow unauthorized access, or it automatically forwards alarms to the technical service in the event of faults in the building services and fire alarm system.
- DAKS integrates the existing IT and telecommunications infrastructure and reliably handles various communication tasks: both in everyday hotel life and in emergency situations.
- The security and reputation of the hotel is enhanced by efficient processes.

In the hotel "Time-out" there is a fire, Text:
Mr. Snovsky is relaxing in his hotel room at the "Time-out" hotel. When he hears a siren in the corridor, he is unsure what he should do. Before he can even call the front desk to find out, his room phone rings and plays an announcement: "Attention, fire alarm," a calm voice informs him. "Please exit the building by the following route: ..."The announcement helps Mr. Snovsky to follow the escape plan well as he immediately makes his way outside.

Thanks to the secondary alerting no one is forgotten, Text:
In addition to the sirens in the corridor, this "secondary alerting" ensures that absolutely every person in the rooms is reached and secured. The DAKS alarm server reliably calls all room telephones and, based on any unanswered warning calls, the security staff can see where action is still required and in which rooms people still need to be brought to safety.

DAKS is the reliable helper in the background, Text:
In his function as a rescue worker, the hotel employee Alexander is connected to other rescue workers and to the responsible manager in a telephone conference so that information about the evacuation progress can be continuously exchanged and updated. Because Alexander is on the move all the time, his connection briefly breaks off while he is in the basement. DAKS always re-establishes the conference call independently – as a result, Alexander is automatically back on the call within a short period of time and he can devote his full attention to rescuing the guests.
- Bild:
, Zwischentitel:
The building is cleared in separate parts, Text:
The segmentation of the alarm and the evacuation enables Alexander and his colleagues to react to different hazards and dangerous locations as well as to avoid possible congestions or panic during the evacuation of the building. DAKS receives the appropriate signal directly from the fire alarm system and then supports the orderly evacuation of the area directly affected by the fire by making targeted announcements. In this way, guests receive important information about the escape route and instructions on how to behave via integrated loudspeakers. Guests in the remaining endangered sections of the building are guided out of the building in the same way with announcements in a specific order via the respective escape routes.

Regular drills are perfectly supported by DAKS, Text:
Finally, all the guests are safe: Mr. Snovsky is already actively participating in the nervous murmur that has spread among the evacuated guests.
Alexander, too, has now left the building and is relieved that everything went well in this emergency. Thanks to regular drills of such scenarios with DAKS, the staff was well-prepared. Exercises were logged in detail by DAKS, which helped in evaluating and optimizing procedures.

In the event of fires or other threats, hotel guests and employees must be brought to safety both quickly and reliably, and in a calm and disciplined manner. But crisis situations in particular can easily trigger stress and uncertainty and disrupt the smooth flow of some very complex emergency procedures – especially if routines gained through regular drills are lacking.
Automated communication processes help employees and managers to confidently carry out all necessary safety measures in an emergency.

The basis of every hotel business is the well-being of its guests. In line with the customers' high expectations regarding service quality, a wide range of guests' requests and needs are fulfilled. But behind a smoothly functioning hotel service lie complex processes that the guests should not be aware of.
Reception staff not only look after arriving and departing guests – they also receive a wide range of service requests: a minibar needs refilling, an extra bed is required or a car needs to be brought out of the parking garage for a guest. Each order must be routed to the right place quickly and reliably and needs to be fulfilled in a timely manner.

An employee triggers an alarm inconspicuously, Text:
Sabrina works in an office of the public law and has a rather tense conversation with a customer. As soon as the customer's behavior or speech develops in an inappropriate way and Sabrina starts to feel uncomfortable in the customer conversation, she can discreetly inform her colleagues from the surrounding offices. She does so by clicking a virtual alarm button on her desktop or by using a predefined key combination - an action that goes unnoticed by the customer because it appears to be a normal work activity.

This particular inconspicuousness of triggering the alarm allows Sabrina to start the process at a very early stage in her conversation without aggravating the situation with the customer in any way. Due to the silent alarm without sounds or other signals, the started alarm process remains unobtrusive. Only Sabrina is shown a discreet message about the started alarm process on her monitor, which is not understandable for strangers and gives her a sense of calm.

Colleagues in adjacent offices come to the rescue, Text:
The DAKS alarm server immediately forwards the alarm to the assigned colleagues in the surrounding offices. They receive the emergency call displayed on their desktop or are called on their phones. They can then join in "as if by chance" to provide support, e.g. with a question as a pretext. Experience has shown that in many cases, the mere appearance of a colleague leads to de-escalation and averts danger. The threatening situation can thus be gently resolved and violence avoided, even without requiring the security service to intervene.

Everyone responsible is informed, Text:
Alongside her colleagues, the security service or the control center can also receive the alarm along with the location information in order to keep an eye on the situation and intervene if necessary. Sabrina feels safe because she knows that she can count on the reliable alerting with DAKS and on her colleagues.

The alarm process is logged and evaluated, Text:
With DAKS, all alarm processes are logged in detail. This is important for the follow-up of actual incidents. Exercise alarms are also logged – these provide important insights that can be used to optimize alarm processes. The logs can also be supplemented with manual entries (e.g. for false alarms or abnormalities). It is particularly important to regularly practice both alarm triggering and the response of colleagues and the security service. This way, everyone is well prepared to help each other and to act confidently in threatening situations.
- Verlinkte Artikel:
In employment agencies, social offices and courts, employees in workplaces with customer contact are increasingly exposed to aggressive behavior from upset citizens. Particularly during one-on-one interviews or interrogations, verbal conflicts often escalate into assaults involving physical or psychological violence. This can certainly have health consequences for those affected: Stress symptoms, anxiety and loss of motivation cause more frequent days of absence, they impair productivity and worsen the working atmosphere. Damage to property can also generate considerable costs and cause lasting disruption to operational processes.
Managers of public authorities are therefore encouraged to protect their administrative employees through efficient alarm systems, regular employee training and suitable emergency plans. Unfortunately, the installation of alarm buttons is often not only structurally problematic – the untypical hand movement to the alarm button can promote escalations. The lack of feedback to the person seeking help after pressing the button also does not contribute to their sense of security. Truly effective solutions must therefore be both absolutely inconspicuous and structurally feasible in any environment.

DAKS supports the segmented evacuation of the building, Text:
By making targeted announcements, DAKS first supports the orderly evacuation of the area directly affected by the fire. The people in the remaining parts of the building are then also guided out of the building in a specific order by means of announcements via the respective escape routes. In doing so, DAKS reaches external visitors via the loudspeakers, and employees additionally via their telephones, and informs them about the fire and the applicable escape route. Employees confirm the announcement on their phones by pressing a button. If they fail to do so, the fire protection assistants receive a message and can specifically check on the person concerned.

Because good plans are not enough: keep practicing, Text:
A short time later, everyone has arrived at the assembly point and the fire department can do its work unhindered. Regular practice with DAKS has paid off, because the better the employees know the emergency plan, the easier it is to keep calm in an actual emergency.
Practicing plays a significant role and is usually underestimated. With DAKS on premise, you can practice as often as you like without additional costs.
Not only in case of actual incidents, but also in case of drills, DAKS provides a detailed protocol that helps the responsible persons to optimize these important processes.
- Verlinkte Artikel:
Crisis situations can easily lead to stress and uncertainty. If emergency procedures are not practiced regularly and thus are not anchored in the minds of the employees, panic will quickly break out in an emergency. Then collisions occur on the stairs, visitors lose their orientation, fire protection assistants lack the opportunity to work together constructively, and the arrival of the fire department is not adequately prepared. And if, in the end, it was only a false alarm, then not only was the chaos in vain, but the fire run and the disruption of ongoing operations also resulted in high costs.
Intelligent communication is the key to the effective coordination of many important tasks that are at hand simultaneously in the event of a fire. These tasks must be completed reliably and without errors within a very short time. A well-wrought, ideally automated and frequently practiced alarm and evacuation procedure is required.

Good care takes time – above all time for personal attention. The ultimate objective for any clinic is to promote the health and well-being of its patients. Nursing homes also aim to care for residents not only by maintaining their health, but above all by enabling them to live in dignity and encouraging company. However, the nursing service in particular is facing growing challenges: At care units used to fullest capacity, the everyday work life of most nursing staff is often characterized by highly demanding and time-consuming working conditions. Many activities have to be coordinated and handled with a great deal of documentation effort. In addition, nursing staff have to accept frequent interruptions in their workflow and at the same time meet the growing demands of patients and their relatives.
The constant tension resulting from this not only makes nursing work appear less attractive, it is also at the expense of one of the central aspects of nursing: human attention. But this is exactly what caregivers consider as the original motivation for their work: they understand their profession as a highly meaningful, helping activity that focuses on people.
As a result, the goal is to relieve the workload of nursing staff, to improve communication between them and their patients, to simplify work processes and to create more time for caring.
