HID Mobile Wallet Proven At 101 Collins St, Says Digital Consultancy, Kodaa.
HID Mobile Wallet Proven At 101 Collins St – Seth Khouri founder of digital consultancy Kodaa, says the results of the first 12 months of operation endorse growing demand for HID mobile wallet access to secure buildings.
“A year on, we’re supporting thousands of active users across 35 tenancies and the feedback is overwhelmingly positive – people don’t want to go back,” Khouri said.
“Also, the project didn’t require a full infrastructure overhaul. The integrated solution is built to work with existing systems and HID ensures modernisation without disruption, making the transition low risk and the results immediate.”
According to Khouri, the 101 Collins Street solution Kodaa deployed has reshaped the way teams manage access administration, with access requests, approvals, updates and revocations now handled digitally through a central portal.
Kodaa deployed HID Mobile Access at scale across entry points, elevators, lockers and end-of-trip facilities for the building. Rather than introducing new hardware or layered systems, the integrated solution embeds access directly into the mobile wallet, with HID providing the trusted identity backbone through secure mobile credentials.
Building access through mobile wallet enables a frictionless user experience by taking processing requests, approvals, updates and revocations from days to minutes
According to HID’s Steve Katanas, head of ANZ for HID Physical Access Control Solutions, the 101 Collins Street tower is emerging as a live example of how mobile credentials are moving from pilot projects to everyday building operations, with thousands of tenants and visitors now accessing one of the city’s most prestigious commercial towers through their mobile wallet, without the need for a physical card.
“Through HID’s proven ecosystem of credentials and readers, we enable partners like Kodaa to deliver frictionless, mobile-first experiences at scale,” Katanas said.
“There’s often a perceived trade-off between security and convenience, but mobile access solutions remove that compromise entirely by combining strong identity and device-level security, which sets a new benchmark for workplace access control.
“As hybrid work continues to influence tenant expectations, office buildings are under increasing pressure to deliver smarter, more seamless experiences from the moment someone arrives. What 101 Collins has shown is that digital credentials can be deployed at scale without disrupting existing infrastructure,” Katanas said.
“What began as a flagship deployment at one of Australia’s most iconic commercial towers is now being viewed as a model for how HID and its partners can help modernise access control for the next generation of workplaces.”
