Selecting
which products, systems, and solutions provide the
ideal combination for use in the area of public
safety and security entails a thorough understanding
of the actual operational needs and the proper
translation of these needs into technically sound
requirements. Without at least some experience in
formulating operational requirements, this can be a
troubling process, consuming precious time and
energy without necessarily resulting in satisfactory
outcomes.
This is particularly
true when trying to create -or upgrade- a mechanism
of crisis management, either on a local, regional,
or national level. Possessing modern field equipment
and the adequately trained personnel to make
effective use of it is not enough. Effective
coordination of the various different agencies, such
as
Police, Fire Brigade,
Coast Guard, Ambulance etc,
is the key to
ensuring a proportionate, fast, and efficient
reaction, i.e. the key to successful responding to
an emergency situation. Siemens possesses the
required experience and knowledge to help formulate
the right integrated security solutions tailored to
fit the unique operational requirements of each
customer in need of fast and effective
first-response mechanisms.
Successfully
responding to unforeseen disasters can only be
achieved by effectively utilizing technology,
processes, and people in a combined fashion and
within a very short notice. That can only be done by
having in place an overall architecture with a wide
range of capabilities covering everything from
traffic monitoring and CCTV management to security
sensors that allows fast and efficient command and
control of multiple mobile units. |
