Alluviam And FieldSoft Integrate Chem/Bio Software With Incident Command System Software
(CHANDLER, AZ – October 18, 2004) - Alluviam LLC and FieldSoft, Inc., jointly announced today that the companies have successfully integrated Alluviam’s HazMasterG3® HAZMAT, Chem/Bio/WMD response capabilities with FieldSoft’s FDonScene software. The result is that first responders may now take advantage of both software applications from within a single integrated environment. Moreover, the integration has been accomplished in such a manner that either or both programs can be run completely independent of each other when and where needed.
Alluviam’s HazMasterG3® is unique in that if offers full capabilities, providing comprehensive access to 91,000+ hazardous agents on smart cell phones, handhelds and desktop computers. With the integration with FieldSoft’s market leading incident command software, incident commanders and other emergency responders have a potent solution for managing all the complexities of an incident while providing commanders with instant access to critical Chem/Bio/WMD response information, analytics and forensics tools to support faster, better and more informed decision making.
According to Greg Ouzounian, Alluviam’s founder, “Integrating FieldSoft’s leading incident command software with Alluviam’s leading Chem/Bio/WMD decision support system is a real win for the emergency response community by providing an integrated environment with the best NIMS/ICS compatible incident command system with the most advanced Chem/Bio/WMD decision support capabilities available – like the ability to identify a range of dangerous precursor materials, and the ability to virtually mix chemicals and model their reactions – powerful tools to help keep responders out of harm’s way.”
FieldSoft’s FDonScene software is NIMS compatible software that replaces tactical worksheets or tactical marker boards routinely used by incident commanders. Moreover, FDonScene features, such as the new automated “Roll Call” feature and the new automated Checklist feature, reduce command team workload and improve the decision making process. Subsequently, responder safety and survival is facilitated since the command team is better able to focus attention on incident strategy, incident tactics, and incident hazards.
According to Mark Bouchard, FieldSoft founder and a retired incident commander, “Customers have been asking for “integrated” software systems, since having to switch between different computer programs is both confusing and labor intensive. FieldSoft and Alluviam listened to the customer input and acted cooperatively since it was the right thing to do.” Bouchard added, “First responder command staff need fast, simple, and easy to use tools and the integration of both products is just another example of how FieldSoft and Alluviam put that need above the typical software development habit of producing “cool” but impractical software user interfaces.”
