The Florida schools districts were drawn to the flexibility of stout visitor management systems to meet their requirements, in compliance with the Jessica Lunsford Act. For example, the numerous public schools of Collier County in Florida carried out the first system-wide, networked visitor administration interface in the state. The school district still had to contend with the thousands of visitors and volunteers who had unfettered access to students even though it had already begun fingerprinting all workers, vendors and regular volunteers in search of violent criminals, sexual predators and drug dealers. Collier County deployed the technology of FastPass to establish security at the front door, simply because it would be impractical and prohibitively expensive to fingerprint every guest.

As soon as the FastPass system initially scans the visitor's ID it automatically starts to fill up the database with data from a Canadian or United States license, passport or military ID. Whether the ID is properly formatted or fake is immediately recognized by the advanced system. Upon finishing this procedure the system then starts to check the name against other internal watch lists such as the national sex offender registry. FastPass takes the visitor's photo and prints a badge if it fails to find a match with any of these lists. Furthermore administrators are allowed to modify the badge to include time and date of entry, areas the guest is permitted to access, badge expiration or any other relevant information through the preset fields option. The system managers can quickly generate reports, single visitor or view the history of a group. Adding on, a guest may not move from building to building, hoping to gain access simply because all the systems are networked together. All what the system will do is consistently and continuously check their identity, determine privileges and present the history of visitations. By robbing them of their anonymity, the FastPass is giving hope to Collier County and promising them that it will act primarily as a frontline deterrent to identify convicted sex offenders. The administrators know they've done their part in keeping their schools safe each time the system produces a hit.

Furthermore the system also performs like a district-wide messaging hub. For example if an orange alert is deployed, an administrator convey the alert out to each of the work facilities. Furthermore, each employee can receive the same alert by e-mail if the system is integrated with the employee access control system. Having a vehicle to push alerts out quickly is critical due to the fact that only seconds can make a difference when a child is found to be missing from the facility.

Emergencies undergo the same circumstances. The school’s administrators and security managers can quickly alert employees of the impending event and quickly generate a report showing all visitors with photographs in the occurrence of a school shooting, hurricane, fire outbreak. The administrators are enabled to account for all building occupants and evacuate them from the property via using this system, along with the employee access control interface.

The administrators are given the tools and flexibility to keep their schools safe through the robust nature of the system. Visitor management systems have proven to be more superior and very effective when compared to a traditional employee access control system.
