Los Angeles County Awards 5 Year Contract to Genasys for Evacuation Management Solution
18 Janeiro 2024 - 10:00AM
Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in protective
communications, today announced that Los Angeles County has agreed
to a 5-year contract that expands Genasys Protect EVAC utilization
across the entire county to reduce evacuation time and improve
speed of relaying public information to impacted areas.
The Genasys Protect platform allows Los Angeles County to create
targeted evacuation zones for the entire county, playing a vital
role in emergency planning and coordination across fire and law
enforcement organizations. Los Angeles County is the nation's most
populous county with approximately 10 million residents (over a
quarter of California’s population) living over 4,000 square miles,
an area larger than Delaware and Rhode Island combined. Zone-based
evacuation management offers significant benefits:
- Improves situational awareness by
providing a common operating picture for first responders
- Accelerates decision making time by
identifying areas for protective actions
- Enhances communication and
collaboration with agencies during cross jurisdictional events
- Integrates and displays zone-based
maps on county and municipal websites and apps
- Improves community awareness of
evacuation planning efforts with real-time updates
“Where we've rolled out Genasys EVAC, it has been a valuable
tool in helping us better plan, coordinate, and conduct evacuations
with first responders, as well as provide more timely and accurate
information to the public,” said Bennett Cummings, Associate
Director, Los Angeles County OEM. “We look forward to working with
more of our cities and public safety partners as we roll it out
across the county.” “Our leading-edge, unique evacuation management
solution is a revolutionary step in public safety.” said Richard
Danforth, CEO of Genasys. “Within the last few years, 36 of
California’s 58 counties have adopted Genasys Protect EVAC and we
are committed to the success of LA County."
Genasys Protect EVAC provides a comprehensive set of evacuation
management tools that make it quick and easy for fire service, law
enforcement, and OES/OEM to build and maintain evacuation plans,
train using accurate evacuation simulations and scenarios and
during a real incident, significantly reduce the time from incident
recognition to community notification. Creating intelligent zones
greatly improves response management across fire and law
enforcement personnel and other emergency support agencies. EVAC
enables first responders to react swiftly, make informed evacuation
decisions, and communicate critical evacuation and community status
updates in real-time to other agencies and to the public. EVAC is
the only platform that provides a unique set of data-driven
decision support tools that help emergency responders determine the
proper scope of an evacuation before issuing an evacuation order,
replacing guesswork with intelligence.
Purpose built for all hazards, Genasys Protect EVAC is a
comprehensive solution for collaborative, inter-agency decision
making, evacuation planning and public message formation.
