Wisconsin University Selects OMNIQ’s AI Access-Control Technology to Strengthen Campus Safety and Efficiency

Rhea-AI Summary

OMNIQ (OTCMKTS: OMQS) on November 4, 2025 said a public research university in Wisconsin selected its AI-based access-control platform to secure campus facilities and parking. The deployment will serve about 50,000 students and 27,000 faculty and staff, using automated credentialing, role-based permissions, centralized management, and license-plate recognition.

The company says the system reduces queue times and printed-credential costs, logs and audits vehicle movement, supports real-time alerts and parking analytics, and processes data within private networks with role-based access and retention policies.

Security and Campus Operations Analyst

Large public‑university deployment of OMNIQ access control is a clear commercial customer win with operational and security benefits.

The core business mechanism is a campus‑scale technology deployment: OMNIQ will replace printed credentials with automated credentialing, role‑based permissions, centralized management, and vehicle entry automation for a public research university serving 50,000 students and 27,000 faculty and staff. This shifts routine tasks from attendants to software, reduces manual errors, and creates auditable logs of vehicle movements, which directly supports operational efficiency and traceability.

Dependencies and risks include successful integration with existing campus systems, on‑site rollout logistics, and the university’s adherence to the stated data‑retention and network security practices. The mention of about 6,300 vehicle thefts in 2024 highlights a tangible security context, but the deployment’s effectiveness depends on coverage, camera/license‑plate accuracy, and policy enforcement, all of which must be validated after installation.

Watch for three monitorable items over the next 6–18 months: completion of campuswide installation and system acceptance testing, operational metrics such as reductions in credentialing errors and vehicle queue times, and evidence of secure data handling consistent with the company statement dated Nov. 04, 2025. Those milestones will confirm whether the commercial promise translates into measurable campus outcomes.

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OMNIQ CORP. (OTCMKTS: OMQS) (“OMNIQ” or “the Company”), a leader in AI-based computer vision and data intelligence, is chosen by a public research university in Wisconsin to implement advanced access-control technology across campus facilities and parking areas.

The project aims to support safer, more efficient daily operations through automated credentialing, role-based permissions, and centralized management. Serving approximately 50,000 students and 27,000 faculty and staff, the university joins a growing number of higher-education institutions adopting OMNIQ systems to enhance visibility and control in complex environments.

This automation reduces waiting times, limits the need for on-site attendants, and eliminates the costs and errors associated with printed credentials. By streamlining vehicle entry and exit, campuses can improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, and reallocate staff to higher-value tasks while maintaining consistent, secure control of parking facilities. Improved efficiency at entry points also brings a measurable security advantage, ensuring every vehicle movement is logged, verified, and auditable.

According to official data, Milwaukee reported about 6,300 vehicle thefts in 2024, a slight increase from the previous year. Monitoring vehicle entry and exit points has become an increasingly important part of campus security, helping institutions reduce unauthorized access and improve safety in high-traffic parking areas. OMNIQ’s access-control platform supports these efforts through precise zone management, real-time alerts, and integration options for license-plate recognition and parking analytics.

“Our goal is to make daily life on campus safe and run smoother for the people who live and work there. Real solutions should fit naturally into how people already move, park, and work,” said CEO of OMNIQ, Shai Lustgarten.

The systems are built with strict data-privacy and security standards. All vehicle and access data are processed within secure, private networks that prevent unauthorized access or external sharing. The platform supports role-based permissions, audit logs, and defined data-retention policies, giving institutions full visibility and control over how information is used and stored.
