Intrado Inc. (NASDAQ: TRDO), a global provider of
integrated data and telecommunications solutions and leading provider
of VoIP 9-1-1 services, today announced an agreement with RedSky
Technologies, a leading provider of E9-1-1 location information
management solutions, to market VoIP E9-1-1 services. Under terms of
the agreement, RedSky will market Intrado(R) V9-1-1(R) for Enterprise
to Fortune 500 and mid-cap enterprises.
The introduction of IP technology in the PBX environment enables
enterprises to support a host of new applications and capabilities,
including providing employees with the flexibility to work in remote
locations or in nomadic environments as well as establishing branch
locations that are networked with a central HUB location. However, as
these users often switch locations or move away from the enterprise
premises, the technology also creates a challenge if the employee is
to call 9-1-1 for an emergency. Locations and phone numbers of the
9-1-1 caller can no longer be easily identified and this can result in
complications to get the 9-1-1 call to the geographically correct
public safety answering point (PSAP).
Intrado V9-1-1 for Enterprise provides comprehensive E9-1-1
coverage in an IP-based environment. The solution helps ensure that
even with such a diverse and complex population, the enterprise is
given the highest level of quality and reliable emergency service for
its employees. As part of the solution, RedSky will use its
award-winning E911 Manager(TM) application to track the physical
location of phone users inside and outside the enterprise and provide
Location Information Services (LIS) to the Intrado V9-1-1 for
Enterprise. With the integration of Intrado V9-1-1 for Enterprise and
RedSky's E911 Manager application, employees who are either traveling
and using a soft phone to access their company's private network, are
telecommuters using company assigned IP phone equipment, or are
located in remote locations that are networked to the main site for
off net calling, can now gain critical E9-1-1 support.
"By combining the two products, enterprise customers will have
access to a single-source solution to support both mobile and
stationary IP users inside and outside the enterprise," said Tony
Maier, CEO of RedSky. "RedSky's E911 Manager can deliver real-time
location data which will enable Intrado to route the 9-1-1 call to the
local PSAP serving the caller's location."
The comprehensive solution manages all aspects of 9-1-1 support,
automatically interfacing with the enterprise network to provision the
caller's current location, detecting phone moves, adds and changes. It
then provides call routing and delivery to the geographically correct
PSAP with the requisite automatic location information (ALI) for each
9-1-1 call.
"Together, Intrado and RedSky can provide enterprises with a
comprehensive and cost-effective VoIP E9-1-1 solution that meets their
specific operational requirements," said Stephen Meer, Intrado chief
technology officer and co-founder. "As IP technology becomes more
prevalent in the workplace, we can help enterprise customers address
critical employee safety issues."
