Insurance Giant Sanlam Towers Masters Integrated Security with SecuViz Innovation at Kenyan HQ
Sanlam Towers in Nairobi
Sanlam Towers, a premier commercial facility in Nairobi’s Westlands area, recognized the need to modernize its security protocols and visitor management processes. As a landmark building housing multiple prestigious tenants, the tower requires robust systems to manage high volumes of daily visitor traffic while maintaining a secure and professional environment. The building’s management sought a comprehensive solution that would enable real-time monitoring of visitor traffic, streamline check-in processes, and provide detailed visibility into facility access patterns.
Client Requirements
The challenge was clear: implement a robust visitor management system that could capture comprehensive visitor data, enhance security protocols, provide real-time monitoring capabilities, and integrate seamlessly with existing facility operations without disrupting daily business activities or compromising the client-first service culture that defines Sanlam Kenya’s approach. Sanlam Towers required a system capable of capturing detailed information about every visitor entering their premises, including visitor identification, purpose of visit, host information, time of entry and exit, and comprehensive audit trails for compliance and security purposes while maintaining smooth, professional visitor experience.
Comprehensive visitor traffic management system capable of capturing detailed information about every visitor entering premises including identification and visit purpose.

Our Approach
Understanding that visitor management systems represent a significant operational change, SecuViz, a RIANA Group subsidiary specializing in cutting-edge visitor management solutions, proposed a methodical approach that would validate system performance before full deployment. Rather than immediately implementing a full-scale solution, SecuViz initiated the project with a comprehensive proof of concept (POC) phase. This strategic approach allowed Sanlam Towers to experience the system’s capabilities firsthand, evaluate its performance in their specific environment, and verify that it met all operational requirements before committing to full deployment across all entry points.
Strategic Proof of Concept Implementation
Methodical validation-driven approach ensuring system performance verification before full deployment commitment across all facility entry points.
