TriTech will provide system integration and project management in partnership with its subcontractor Emergency Technologies,Inc |
TriTech's VisiCAD computer-aided dispatch (CAD) system is a feature-rich solution developed for larger public safety agencies operating in complex, high volume environments. Designed with multi-agency, multi-jurisdiction capabilities, VisiCAD allows multiple PSAPs and agencies to operate on the same system and share information, yet the system is flexible to allow agencies to implement their own business rules and processes. With VisiCAD, all law enforcement, fire and emergency medical agencies in Lucas County will be provided shared access to incident and unit information to improve resource management and response times across jurisdictional boundaries. The integrated mapping and live routing capabilities utilizing the street network of VisiCAD will provide Lucas County Dispatchers resource recommendations based on closest available unit by fastest estimated response time regardless of which PSAP receives the call.
Mission critical information processed by VisiCAD will be available to field personnel through integration with VisiNet Mobile, TriTech's wireless mobile data solution. VisiNet Mobile provides field personnel with secure, real-time access to CAD, RMS, CJIS and other and other public/proprietary databases and full messaging capabilities to bridge the communications gap between the dispatch center and field personnel. Similar to VisiCAD, VisiNet Mobile is flexible, highly customizable solution enabling users to configure fields to meet their specific agency needs.
Additionally, TriTech will provide system integration and project management in partnership with its subcontractors: Emergency Technologies, Inc. will provide Visual Fire, its fire records management solution; Orion Communications will provide its AgencyWeb solution; Field Soft will provide an Incident Management system; and Deccan International will provide its Live MUM move-up module.
