Raleigh, NC – June 2006 –– Raleigh, NC – Emergency Technologies, Inc. continues to gain market share within the Fire and EMS software industry throughout the Southeast. Emergency Technologies, Inc. (ETI) recently signed a contract to implement new Fire and EMS software to throughout Currituck County, NC.

In January 2006, Currituck County released a Request for Proposal to acquire a new fully integrated public safety system to include Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD), Records Management (RMS), Jail Management (JMS), Mobile Field Reporting, Message Switch, Mobile Client / Digital Dispatch software, and Fire and EMS Records Software. The new system would provide public safety personnel with cutting edge technology that will improve emergency response time and reduce time spent on reports.

After teaming with SunGard OSSI, ETI won the bid in April 2006 to implement Visual Fire and Visual Fire Mobile to be used in the field throughout the County. Anticipated go-live is scheduled for late Summer 2007, once ETI and OSSI have completed Training, Implementation, and Acceptance Testing.

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 Currituck 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 Currituck County, and are looking forward to a long term partnership with their Fire and EMS professionals,” said Gar Keaton, president of Emergency Technologies, Inc.

Currituck County is located in northeastern North Carolina, occupies a land area of 262 square miles, and has a population of 22,067 residents.
