Incident Aware for Education Facilities
Need to broadcast alerts or notices quickly and easily to staff or parents either district-wide or at a single school? Need to notify your staff with additional information or instructions, and coordinate with all first responders simultaneously during drills or in times of crisis, while having their real-time locations? Need to record details of incidents for tracking or future analysis? Need to automate or optimize procedures during panic situations, evacuations or lockdowns while triggering additional emergency alerting systems, posting alerts to social media, triggering mass overhead paging and leveraging other public or onsite equipment?
Welcome to Incident Aware! Incident Aware is an innovative yet simple mobile app & web portal that does all that... and even more. Administrators and teachers can manage fire or earthquake drills and real emergencies seamlessly by seeing who’s still inside buildings, exchanging "all clear", "all accounted for" or "missing" information, and more. Incident Aware also allows staff to initiate location-rich panic, lockdown and evacuation alerts, which immediately notify others on-site while also dialing the appropriate emergency number, which helps you detect and manage emergencies and lockdown situations both before and after help arrives.
In addition to receiving and pushing real-time two-way communications to your members, Incident Aware can optionally provide GPS locations of your members and the incident location to accelerate and enhance emergency responses during those critical times. Incident Aware empowers on-site First Responders with the ability to coordinate who's responding and what resources are needed.
Incident Aware connects your teachers, administrators, parents and even students to provide immediate awareness, and powerful emergency collaboration tools exactly when you need them!
