QuestionNew feature for building access control Pin

At my place of employment we have access cards as a system for entering the building. We have a utility that shows who is in the building, and who is out. This utility gets the in and out employees from a SQL Database.

My supervisor wants a new feature added, and I have been giving the task of doing the design work for this. I have been mulling around for a few hours, considering my options. I was wondering what the CPians think of this idea, or if you guys have a better idea.

The new feature would allow you to select an employee from the "Out of the building list," and set a notification on the person. So, when they enter the building, you will recieve an E-Mail saying "Joe Shmoe entered the building at 5:00 PM." We want this added to enterprise namespace so this can be a re-usable object in any software we design.

So, my Idea is as such:

I would create a service running on one of the servers in the building. The user will look at the In&Out utility, select a user, and say "Hey I wanna be notified when they come in" The service will accept notification request, and store it in a database. The service will constantly monitor the In&Out database, and when a condition for one of the notification requests has been met, it will send an E-Mail to the requestor. Then, the service will remove the notification request from the list.

I have been looking at This Article[^] and I believe a lot of this is applicable to me. What do you guys think?
