Challenge: Legacy key management system

Managing physical keys across 8 sites with an on-premise key management system became a major operational bottleneck. No ‘remote management’ capability conflicted with their cloud-first infrastructure approach. Significant emergency response delays were common, as staff had to drive to sites during outages to grant technicians physical key access.

Integration shortcomings with the Brivo access control system and complex scaling requirements caused extensive on-site configuration and travel. The team soon realized that the costs of internal labor wasted on key management were becoming unsustainable. For a company shaping the future of transportation infrastructure, relying on outdated security technology wasn’t an option.

Solution: Integrated key management system

Voltera chose Torus – a decision that instantly transforms key management. Torus’s integration with Brivo access control (both enterprise cloud platforms) enables a single, unified platform for managing access to sites and keys. Now, technicians are automatically granted access to keys via Brivo – streamlining workflows and improving response times.

The simplicity of the process and ease of access for technicians make it exceptionally effective. Built on a fully cloud-native architecture, Torus eliminates complex network configurations and enables remote key management without infrastructure changes. As a result, Voltera saves more than 30 staff hours and $2,000 in travel costs per site, while gaining the scalability and efficiency of cloud-first applications.
