(CHANDLER, AZ - February 5, 1999) - Officials of Chandler, AZ based FieldSoft, Inc., today announced that it has become an authorized reseller of Panasonic ruggedized notebook and ultra-portable computers. The announcement means that FieldSoft can now offer a complete incident command "solution" of both hardware and software." We value FieldSoft knowledge and will provide them the support necessary to make the company even more successful,' said Greg Peratt, district sales manager for Panasonic, regarding the FieldSoft relationship. FieldSoft is a leading provider of automated incident management software and support services.

FieldSoft software is used by incident commanders to manage people, resources, and events while on the scene of an emergency. The application automates most - if not all -- incident management and follow-up narrative reporting functions formerly handled with pen and paper based worksheets, checklists or marker boards. "Our customers have asked for a turnkey hardware and software package", said Marc Bouchard of FieldSoft and a recently retired battalion chief. He further stated that "FieldSoft recently evaluated the Panasonic CF-27 'Toughbook' and found that it could meet the in-the-field need for a rugged and temperature tolerant notebook computer. The '27' appears to be a computer able to survive the harsh environments that emergency responders face every day."

FieldSoft customers now have the option of purchasing a complete software and hardware configuration, or the software only. The FieldSoft - Panasonic relationship will provide FieldSoft with the hardware products needed to continue its increasingly rapid deployment of information technology tools to fire, EMS, law enforcement and Federal Government agencies by providing turn-key packages for on-board mobile applications along with comprehensive support services.
