Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) announced it has acquired Avtec, Inc., a leading U.S. provider of advanced dispatch solutions for public safety and commercial customers. 

Based in South Carolina, Avtec provides voice over internet protocol (VoIP) dispatch services over land mobile radio (LMR) and broadband networks. Its services enable customers, including airlines, railroads and energy companies, to connect operations center personnel using Avtec dispatch solutions with workers in the field using two-way radios.

“Avtec’s industry-leading solutions enable business-critical communications across diverse industries,” said John Kedzierski, corporate vice president of Infrastructure and Systems, Motorola Solutions. “Avtec expands our public safety and commercial portfolios, allowing us to offer an end-to-end platform for customers to communicate, coordinate resources and secure their facilities. As part of our portfolio, Avtec will continue to offer dispatch solutions for a number of radio network vendors so its customers and channel partners can maximize their integration options."

“Motorola Solutions has been a committed partner to Avtec for years,” said Michael Branning, retiring chief executive officer of Avtec. “Under Motorola Solutions, Avtec will continue to evolve the Scout platform and maintain the culture of service our customers and channel partners have come to expect.”

Healthcare operations are experiencing an epidemic of safety issues. They must care for the ill and injured inside their facilities while protecting patients, staff and visitors from outside threats. Yet violent acts are becoming the norm, impacting almost 90 percent of hospitals. Whether it is an aggressive patient who needs to be subdued, or a threatening visitor entering with a weapon, it is critical for hospitals to prevent incidents and resolve them quickly when they occur. 

Providers must put proper security measures and communication systems in place to handle crisis prevention and crisis management. When they do, safety is strengthened, and your organization can achieve better outcomes.

PREVENT AN OUTBREAK OF SECURITY BREACHES
Healthcare providers must manage incidents and emergency responses and prevent security breaches from harming patients and staff. Violence directed at employees by clients and patients accounted for 90 percent of all assaults in hospitals. Police officers and security staff are the number one target, with the highest rate of violence-related injuries.

GET THE RIGHT REMEDY TO ACHIEVE BETTER OUTCOMES
From reception to maintenance, in the emergency room or at an off-site location, Motorola is helping healthcare providers work more safely and efficiently in the most demanding environments and challenging situations. 

Healthcare providers around the world are transforming their workplace with the renowned MOTOTRBO digital platform and expertly integrated systems, applications, accessories and services. 

MOTOTRBO connects different people, departments and equipment to keep operations running smoothly, prevent crises from happening, and manage them swiftly and effectively when they do.

  • Last month, the Iowa School Safety Alliance (ISSA) announced the winner of its 2019’s “What is your Plan” video contest. The contest, sponsored by Electronic Engineering, urged students to create a 90 second video focused on that motto and that correlated with both ISSA’s mission in assisting schools in preparing for, mitigating, responding to and recovering from natural and man-made threats and incidents. It also coincides with last year’s Iowa Legislature’s Bill SF2364, in which every Iowa school needs to develop a high quality emergency plan and conduct an annual drill based on that plan by June 30th, 2019.

    Watch the winning video from Abraham Lincoln High School’s on YouTube:
