PUBLIC & OPEN SPACES
councils , course owners and club management are generally involved in a revenue share scenario with a contracted Pro-Shop team ( collecting revenue for player fees , golf cart rentals etc .), making it incredibly difficult to accurately audit shared revenue . At one site where VerifEye was deployed the collected data revealed significant discrepancies between expected revenue ( actual player numbers / cart rentals ) versus financially reported data from the Pro-Shop .
Golf courses are an auditors nightmare ; incredibly difficult to manage without stringent management protocols and managerial oversight . Having a small team within the proshop dealing with hundreds of visitors each day , being charged at numerous different rates becomes a nearimpossible task to maintain consistently .
In situations like these , On-Pin technology can discreetly count and verify actual player numbers , identifying areas of โ€˜ financial leakage .โ€™ The council / owner or managing body can then evaluate and compare the data being delivered to them from the Pro-Shop and develop action plans to tighten loopholes within the operation .
In addition to ensuring proper financial recompense , the VerifEye system allows the tracking of all council owned assets used at the facility . This includes ( but is not limited to ) golf carts , grass cutting equipment , machinery and even council employees / maintenance staff . Detailed asset reporting provides a means for managers to properly rotate & service their assets , preserving battery life and enhancing the longevity of expensive equipment .
Future Development / Blue Sky
As technology inevitably continues to develop , On- Pin is designing and integrating further solutions
that enhance the management systems being used at sports facilities and golf courses around the world . Current efforts involve deploying facial recognition cameras within sports facilities and golf pro-shops to automatically distinguish between members , visitors , employees etc . In addition , our smart camera systems are being used to monitor behavioural patterns ( player / user movements ) & environmental stress / hazards using a detailed and thorough analytical system . Our range of products extends to advanced GPS tracking systems , as well as GIS ( Geographic Information System ) software for environmental management solutions .
