Real-time
Integration Between Organisations (Imass K2â)
Imass
K2â
helps to ensure that your people have enough
information to make informed decisions via a
community-wide view of the world in real-time.
In Emergency Services
organisations, real-time information has traditionally
been restricted to Command and Control centres.
Even here, the extent of the real-time information is
limited to knowing what is going on within your
organisation in a simplified form. It is often
difficult to visualise what is really happening.
Barriers within and between
organisations prevent them from working smartly and in a
concerted way. Vital information is not available to
people in time for it to be useful. Sometimes,
little pieces of information can be very important too.
Imass K2â
provides a mechanism for communicating within and between
organisations to ensure that decisions can be made with
all available information. That means knowing what's
happening and that requires an ability to communicate what's happening;
-
Knowing the location and status of resources, assets and
personnel,
-
Knowing about real world facts,
-
Knowing about 'Customers'
With
this information available a more intelligent 'response'
may be possible, perhaps a preventative response rather
than a reactive one. This is not restricted to
individual services, but allows joined-up working too.
Benefits
Prevention
is (often) better than cure if only you knew about the
need in time;
Real-time
information enables you to know as soon as possible;
Sharing
information gives the potential for multi-agency
working;
Geographical
information often gets the message across much better.
Give
people enough information to make informed decisions via a
community-wide view of the world in real-time and they
make better decisions. Imass K2â
helps the information flow.
