Prince William County, Virginia dispatchers get exact location,
real-time updates to share with first responder agencies with
Motorola Solutions’ innovative technology
- Motorola Solutions PremierOne™ solution
is another lifeline for first responders, allowing dispatchers to
reliably communicate with police, fire and other emergency services
in real time
- Prince William County citizens benefit
from dispatchers having better communications with neighboring
agencies and priority information for first responders
When seconds can mean lives, public safety dispatchers in Prince
William County, Virginia are often the first contact citizens have
in an emergency. Details obtained during sometimes frantic 9-1-1
calls can be crucial for first responders on the way to help.
Motorola Solutions PremierOne™ computer-aided dispatch (CAD) system
is another lifeline for first responders. It allows dispatchers to
reliably communicate with police, fire and other emergency services
so they can get to the exact location, in the shortest time
possible, with all the critical information they need, to serve the
citizens who rely on them.
The latest PremierOne technology takes interoperability, or the
ability to communicate between different radio systems, to a new
level with “CAD to CAD” functionality. It enables Prince William
County dispatchers to manage an incident and share information with
the other public safety agencies that support the region.
Dispatchers can continuously update and send notifications while
simultaneously entering information into the CAD system. PremierOne
Mobile now allows first responders, dispatchers and call takers to
prioritize information and make sure sometimes life-saving details
are communicated to the right people at the right time.
“We didn’t want to simply implement a new computer aided
dispatch system, we wanted to change how we operate on a day-to-day
basis,” said Scott Boggs, Battalion Chief, Prince William
County. “Motorola Solutions’ latest improvements to PremierOne
provide efficient communications and can be customized to fit our
unique demands to help improve the safety of our officers and the
citizens we serve.”
Prince William County’s PremierOne CAD system automatically
verifies a caller’s address and displays a route on a map, giving
the dispatcher the exact location. First responders en route to an
incident use PremierOne Mobile to receive precise directions,
background information about an address, nearby resources and other
details that can help save lives.
Prince William County is one of more than 3,000 agencies
nationwide served by Motorola Solutions’ innovative public safety
software. The county handles about 400,000 emergency calls per year
ranging from fire, emergency medical services and law enforcement.
The dispatchers oversee the flow of information and provide aid,
comfort and instructions to the public before the arrival of
police, fire and rescue personnel.
“Managing staffing rosters, duty assignments and staff
capabilities across multiple systems can be a challenge for public
safety agencies,” said Tom Guthrie, vice president, Motorola Smart
Public Safety Solutions. “Motorola Solutions’ latest PremierOne
technology will assist Prince William County with this challenge
and allow commanders and staff to maintain this information in one
location while sharing it when and where it’s needed most.”
