Demonstrate the business benefits of a GR100 security robot to your bo

Convaincre sa direction des gains metier du GR100

In 2024, around 40% of robots were deployed in industry to monitor sensitive infrastructures or large-scale sites. 30% were used in public spaces such as shopping centres and car parks*.

Why is there so much interest in security robots? Because this 4.0 surveillance tool enables companies to adapt and compensate for increasing risks, dwindling human resources and shrinking budgets. Security departments need to innovate to maintain their high standards. Conventional surveillance systems have reached their limits, and need to be supplemented by a strategic tool such as the GR100 robot.

You may be convinced of this, but your management may not be… We’ll help you put together all the key elements and the concrete benefits of the GR100 for your management. You can find our full webinar on this subject at the end of the article.

1. Explain why a GR100 safety robot

This surveillance and inspection robot meets a number of major concerns for decision-makers:

  • Coping with staff shortages: given the high staff turnover in the security industry, the GR100 provides a constant presence 24 hours a day.
  • Prevent critical breakdowns : the GR100 inspects installations, detects anomalies and triggers alerts received in real time by operators.
  • Control your budget : the subscription model provides visibility and financial stability, without CAPEX.
  • Adapt to modern threats: the robot’s adaptability, mobility and autonomy mean it can complement traditional surveillance systems.
  • Innovate and promote the company’s brand image: Made in France, it enhances the company’s CSR policy and strengthens its position as an innovative company.
  • Ensuring the safety of staff : the robot goes into areas that are not covered or are even dangerous for field teams.

2. Demonstrate the business benefits of the GR100 security robot

24 hour security reinforcement

  • Continuous autonomous surveillance, day and night, even in difficult conditions
  • Real-time detection of anomalies, intrusions or unusual events thanks to its sensors (RGB cameras, thermographic camera, gas sensor(s), etc.)
  • Reduced blind spots compared with fixed cameras or occasional human patrols

Reduced surveillance costs

  • Fewer staff needed for patrols at night or in inaccessible areas
  • Reduced risk of incidents, so lower costs associated with damage, theft or intrusion
  • Rapid ROI in environments with high security requirements

Automation of security patrols

  • Regular autonomous patrols can be programmed, with no need for human intervention
  • Several zones or perimeters can be managed by a single robot
  • Rounds and alerts can be easily exported for auditing purposes

Smart, connected monitoring

  • Live alerts sent to the security post (SMS and/or email) if an incident is detected
  • Real-time monitoring via a secure web interface

Visible deterrent presence

  • The simple passage of the robot can dissuade intruders or risky behaviour, particularly on the road
  • It increases the feeling of safety for employees, customers or visitors

Safety in complex environments

  • Suitable for industrial areas, warehouses, airports, parks and private sports centres Able
  • to operate outdoors, even on uneven ground
  • Can operate in variable conditions, including at night, thanks to its IR and thermal cameras

Traceability and compliance

  • Records data, video and alerts for future reference
  • Helps document incidents for legal, HR or insurance purposes
  • Facilitates compliance with ISO, RGPD or other security standards

3. Frame the project to get your management on board

Management expects well-structured projects with tangible results. Here are a few elements for a successful framework:

  • Define objectives : reduce security incidents by 30%, increase surveillance coverage by 50%, reduce fire risks by 20%.
  • List possible areas for improvement: start with what is working properly and complete with an assessment of what already exists and what is lacking in terms of security, safety, responsiveness, coverage and information feedback.
  • Include the robot in your budget projection : include funding in the company’s security plan or innovation budget.
  • Integrate the GR100 rundown truck into your overall safety and prevention plan: highlight what can be done and improved with the robot, team training for this new tool and how the GR100 fits into your operational procedures. Identify the current problems to which the robot can provide a solution and the business benefits (discussed in the previous chapter).
  • Identify the performance indicators (KPIs) to be monitored: number of rounds carried out, number of anomalies detected, response time to alerts, cost per intervention avoided, robot availability rate, etc.
  • Envisage a progressive deployment strategy: test on a pilot site for 6 months, evaluation, then deployment on a larger scale.
  • Share the onboarding schedule to demonstrate how easy it is to install the robot and its charging station.
  • Emphasise customer support: customer service, regular milestones, 24-hour emergency technical service, responsiveness, etc.

4. Create a collective dynamic around the project

Be strategic! To be successful, the GR100 external robot integration project must involve all the stakeholders from the outset: safety department, management, purchasing, IT department, operational teams.
Regularly share the communication tools available:

Field support is a key success factor. Field teams need to see the robot as an ally, a tool that frees up their time to carry out higher added-value tasks, while enhancing their safety.

To convince your management, base your decision on objective gains, the results of existing customers and market dynamics. By structuring your approach properly, you’ll maximise your chances of making this innovation a lasting part of your safety system.

The GR100 provides outdoor security and safety services. It’s a truly strategic tool for your operational performance. It responds to concrete business needs and adapts to your requirements, in a budgetary, flexible and measurable format.
It’s up to you!
