Emergency Consultant

Today the internet with linking computers, PCs, tablets, mobile phones, smart phones, social media are part of our normal way of life; this is natural communications.

Providing advice on the right emergency system to an emergency agency or organization is a serious responsibility. In today’s environment, many of the products or systems that were developed 10-20 years ago are so out of touch with what is required today.

The importance of the right system cannot be overstated, because incidents and emergencies are no longer restricted to one location or centralized. The required system must be capable of covering all situations and be capable of expanding as the incident or emergency grows. Without such a system, emergency personnel cannot make the right decisions or direct the right resources to the right places at the right time.

Cost is important, because if the system is too expensive to purchase and to set up, the decision to purchase a system ‘just in case’, keeps being postponed. If your client ends up with a system they cannot implement quickly and easily then when an incident or emergency occurs the emergency personnel will fall back to what they are familiar with: their manual system using paper, phones, faxes, email and radios.

What key points should you then consider?

Obviously you want to achieve the best professional result for your client and ensure they acquire a system that fully meets all of their emergency needs.
That requires:

A proven system that works well. This will reduce your risks and remove stress from the project.
A solution that enhances interoperability and communication for your client and associated organisations.
A reasonably priced system that can be easily justified.
A solution that can be trialled at a reasonable cost before purchase.
A modern system that has elegant architecture, not one that was developed years ago as a corporate silo solution.
A system that can be implemented and trialled easily and quickly to reduce the risk.

From a personal point of view you will also want:

A co-operative solution partner that will work with you to make the system selection and implementation smooth and easy.
A partner that has a strong track record in quality service, so you can be certain that your client will be taken care of - long after the project is delivered.

The EMN solution meets all the above criteria. Consultants who select EMN and work with our Emergency Management Network team to implement the project will earn their client’s grateful appreciation.
