Easy to Use

The Safety and Security Management Solution (SSMS) uses an intuitive Web-based interface designed for non-technical users. This ensures that personnel using the system can act quickly, confidently and accurately in high-stress situations.

Reduces Administrative Burden

User friendly registration enables staff and constituents to sign up easily, reducing administrative burden. Users can also change or update their own profile without any intervention.

Targeted, Two-Way Messaging

The SSMS can be used to target populations both on and off site or to send messages to specific groups. The system has two-way messaging capabilities; once a message is sent, recipients can respond to a voice or text message and provide vital information about their status.

Low Total Cost of Ownership

The Safety and Security Management Solution (SSMS) is delivered via a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, an on-demand subscription based service that ensures that customers have access to the latest upgrades, features and functionality.
