Common Techniques for Visitor Management 4 minute read | Updated December 27, 2024 Visitor management refers to the systems and practices organizations use to monitor and manage the arrival, presence, and departure of visitors in a facility. Common techniques include: Manual Logbooks Visitors sign in and out on a physical logbook, providing their names, purpose of visit, and time of arrival/departure. This method is simple but prone to errors, inefficiencies, and security risks. Pre-registration Hosts pre-register visitors by submitting their details in advance. This often involves sending a confirmation email or access pass to streamline check-in. Visitor Badges Visitors are issued temporary identification badges to improve security and provide visible proof of authorization to be on-site. Access Control Systems Integrated access control systems use ID cards, QR codes, or biometric scanning to grant visitors access to specific areas of a facility. Digital Visitor Management Systems These systems replace manual processes with automated platforms that handle registration, check-ins, access control, and data management.
