Re: Contact Tracing Software

[Jeff Choo <jeff_choo () WILLIAMJAMES EDU>]

Hi Dave,

What Contact Tracing Software are your considering or have reviewed?

  *   Pre-build Microsoft Power Apps
  *   Our current Entry/Door security software
  *   Envoy.com
  *   We end up building our own using power apps that scans college id number from college id badges, where the 
scanning stations are placed at a few controlled entry points to the campus, monitored by receptionists.  All other 
entries are locked for entry.

What privacy concerns do you have with the screening process and data that can be collected?

  *   We are only collecting scanned ID number and the time of scanning.  The identify of the person itself is not 
stored within the system, and only be revealed when contact tracing is needed.  Guests who don't have an college ID 
will have to sign a paper based visitor form with name, phone, and email address as required by state law.

Who is the primary administrator of the system?  Are they from IT or from another department such as a Risk Manager, 
Campus Security, etc.

  *   A small task force is formed for COVID and only task force members have access to the scanned log.

Any challenges from any employment groups use (especially if Opt-In is not an option)?

  *   The only challenge we have encountered so far are the id scanners are not sensitive enough and the worn out id 
badges need to be replaced or else it won't scan...
