IPC Unveils New Name for Public Safety Division,
Announces Integrated Technology Rollout
Montreal & New York, May 16, 2007
IPC, a leading provider of mission-critical communications solutions to global enterprises today announced that it has unified its Public Safety division under the name Positron Public Safety Systems. In March of this year, IPC acquired Positron Public Safety Systems, the Montreal-based global provider of public safety solutions. Under the new name, the division will be the first provider able to offer an end-to-end, enterprise solution for the public safety marketplace.
Positron Public Safety Systems is bringing together proven products and services with tomorrow's technology. This convergence of technology will set a new paradigm for operations in public safety. Customers will be able to work with a single vendor for all their communications technology needs, rather than having to manage multiple vendors and loosely-coupled applications. This will simplify IT issues and ultimately will help emergency responders serve their constituencies more efficiently and effectively.
Positron's new comprehensive solution will be unveiled at the upcoming 26th annual NENA 9-1-1 Conference & Trade Show in Charlotte, North Carolina, June 11th & 12th, 2007.
Doug Roberts, Vice President and General Manager, Positron Public Safety Systems, said, "IPC and Positron have come together to offer the first complete solution to the public safety marketplace, spanning call taking, CAD, mobile, radio, RMS, MIS and mapping. Over the next couple of years we'll see a period of accelerating modernization in this field, and we are extremely pleased to be leading the way."
