Case Study: Kissimmee Utility Authority achieves rapid, facility-wide emergency notifications with Alertus Technologies

Taking A Proactive Approach to Safety

Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA) sought a proactive, comprehensive mass notification capability to protect employees and close coverage gaps that simple text messaging couldn’t address. Facing the need for instant activation and multiple notification points across facilities, KUA selected Alertus Technologies and its Alertus Emergency Mass Notification System (including Alertus Desktop Notification, the Alertus Mobile App, and VoIP phone integration) to provide a hardware- and software-based solution that would notify everyone immediately regardless of location.

Alertus Technologies implemented a holistic solution combining desktop alerts, VoIP phone audio/text, mobile app notifications and Alert Beacon® coverage so KUA could push facility-wide emergency messages in seconds. The deployment expanded reach and redundancy, enabled one-button activation, and closed critical gaps in coverage — delivering alerts in a matter of seconds and improving KUA’s ability to get people out of harm’s way faster during emergencies.
