Most recently, the SAFE Visitor Management Self-Service kiosk was implemented to allow visitors to check themselves in using a mobile device rather than having to wait at a reception desk.

"Technology exists to add value to an organization either by increasing revenue or decreasing costs," added Mr. Jain. "Our continued attention to improving SAFE's capabilities will help to ensure the value of both."
