In today’s world, organizations encounter many different types of crises. Natural disasters, workplace violence, technological crises, and financial crises are just some of the unexpected dilemmas that threaten employee safety, company reputation, corporate assets, and financial results.
When developing plans to manage a crisis, it is imperative that a communication strategy be incorporated.
In fact, a wireless communication system should be the first thing developed to ensure that in the event of an emergency, the right people are notified at the right time. Effective communication allows team members to collaborate and respond efficiently.
Alert Notification Solution Requirements
In an emergency, the way an organization responds within the first 24 hours has a profound impact on minimizing risks and controlling costs related to the crisis. Therefore, an effective alert notification system is necessary to notify everyone who needs to be made aware of the situation. When seeking an effective alert notification solution, it should meet every one of the following requirements:
- Accelerated flow of information to correct responders and decision makers
· - Works with all carriers and all communication protocols
· - Confirm that all units work collaboratively at all locations
· - Provide status of resources in real-time
· - Integrates seamlessly into existing applications
· - It must be scalable to adhere to the needs of the organization
· - Enable fast responses and remote actions by providing two-way capabilities
If a crisis occurs, a communication strategy with an alert notification solution that provides all the above requirements will ensure your organization is prepared for the first 24 hours to maximize the most positive outcome possible.
Resolving Wireless Infrastructure Challenges
There are many different types of mobile devices, software technologies, and carriers using different protocols. People will always have different tastes and different devices. Likewise, different organizations use various types of software. The vast number of different devices, carriers, and software types in one organization can present a real challenge to an organization’s wireless infrastructure. The key to solving this is a wireless messaging software system that makes all the devices work together.
