Raleigh, NC – February 1, 2007 –– Emergency Technologies, Inc. announced today that they will begin training phase of the implementation with Shelby County, Tennessee (Memphis area). In October 2006, Emergency Technologies was sub-contracted by Motorola to provide Shelby County, TN a Fire Records Management System. Emergency Technologies is integrating to the existing Motorola Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system, and will deploy multiple workstations and mobile computers throughout the County.
Emergency Technologies’ integrated Visual Fire application includes Fire Records Management, EMS Patient Reporting, Mobile Field Reporting, Hydrant information and Structural Pre-Plans, along with several additional modules that will provide the Shelby County Fire Department with modern technology that will increase operational efficiency throughout the department.
Field Reporting will aid the Department in reaching a paperless environment by streamlining Fire Department activities. Inspectors will be able to complete building inspections while in the field. Responding Fire Fighters will be able to review building pre-plan information, including what hazardous materials are on-site, while in route to an incident. The ability to see what hazards are in a building before making entry will significantly increase Fire Fighter safety and help prevent injuries and fatalities.
The Visual Fire suite, which is developed using familiar and proven Microsoft technology, operates on industry standard Windows Server and SQL Server database.
“We are excited to be working with Shelby County, and are looking forward to a long term partnership with their Fire and EMS professionals,” said Gar Keaton, president of Emergency Technologies, Inc. Shelby County, Tennessee covers more than 274 square miles, and has more than 150 full time paid professional fire fighters that work from nine engine companies.
