Aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for administering access to resources in an access control system. In one implementation, the access control system comprises an electronic lock for restricting access to a resource. An electronic key can deliver a signal based on an access credential to the electronic lock to initiate an unlocking event for facilitating access to the resource. An access validation engine can process access control information related to access conditions. Access to resources may be granted according to scheduled access permissions. In other aspects, access to resources can be granted based on access conditions. The access validation engine can evaluate whether access to a resource is authorized based on a determination that one or more access conditions are satisfied. An unlocking signal can be delivered to the electronic lock in response to a determination that the one or more access conditions are satisfied.
