specializes in proximity-aware technology.
These two companies are combining their
fortes to enhance customer experience in
the hospitality sector.
Mobile keys were quite impressive when
they first emerged, but they required ho-
tel guests to load an app and keep their
phone pressed against the door lock. The
latest mobile keys designed and manu-
factured by SSS and y!kes uses proximity
software that will allow guests to unlock
their room door without having to remove
their phones from their pockets or hand-
bags. The product was presented at the
Hospitality Industry Technology Exposition
& Conference that took place in New Or-
leans in June.
A FOCUS ON INNOVATION
“One of the things that has always dif-
ferentiated Stanley Black & Decker as a
whole is our focus on innovation and I think
when you look at some of the things the
divisions of Stanley Security have done,
there’s been some very good innovation
that has come out in the last little while,”
Romani said.
A growth strategy centred on innovation
has served the company well here in Can-
ada and internationally. As the number two
security company in the world, the SSS
logo can be seen everywhere in Canada,
from the automatic doors of retail outlets
to hospitals and government buildings.
