Great catching up with ARC Monitoring at The Security Event today.

We use ARC Monitoring for dual-path signalling on monitored fire and intruder alarm systems, so it was great to catch up with the team behind the service that helps support our customers.

Bespoke Emergency & Critical Alert Messaging – Integrated by Optimal

We’re now offering a bespoke alert messaging integration that can deliver instant notifications to the right people when an alarm or critical event occurs — helping improve response times and communication across site.

This can be integrated with almost any system, including:

✅ Fire alarm systems (a great complement to ARC monitoring)
✅ Lockdown alerts for schools & public buildings (as part of lockdown protocols)
✅ Nurse call systems
✅ BMS / plant and building control alarms
✅ Critical/emergency site alerts (custom triggers)

Alerts can be delivered via:

📱 WhatsApp messages
📩 SMS / text messages
☎️ Automated voice calls

Everything is tailored to your site — including message wording, escalation rules, user groups, and notification hierarchy.

🚪 Access control (locks, releases, readers and safe egress testing)
📹 CCTV (camera/NVR health checks, image quality, recording and remote access)

For peace of mind on education sites, all engineers are security screened to BS7858 and hold Enhanced DBS clearance.
