Intrado Director of Product Management Nora Ligrani
Campus Safety spoke with Intrado Director of Product Management Nora Ligrani about the company and how Intrado can bolster campus communications during emergencies.
Campus Safety: What is the top emergency notification product or offering from your company, and what makes it special? How does it apply to healthcare facilities, schools and/or higher education security, public safety and/or emergency management?
Nora Ligrani: Safety Suite is Intrado’s incident management and emergency notification suite of products that provides an end-to-end solution to connect schools/campuses, healthcare facilities, and businesses directly to public safety – driving immediate awareness and expediency.
CS: What other products or offerings would you like to highlight, and what are some of their qualities and benefits?
Ligrani: Intrado is the market leader in 911 routing systems and has a robust E911 solution as well. This pedigree enables us to provide the best possible solution for a direct connection to 911.
CS: How do your company and its offerings address the needs of hospitals, schools and/or universities?
Ligrani: Intrado understands that safety incidents in hospitals, schools and universities are rising and there are employees that travel between buildings. We provide a way to call for help immediately and know that the right people will be notified – up to and including public safety. We are also able to provide a clear workflow and management process for those on-site to easily respond and follow protocols put in place. We can automate notifications, trigger alarms anywhere, including devices that play and display information on-site.
CS: What else is new or noteworthy about your company for 2024?
Ligrani: We have recently launched a Wearable Panic Button that provides those who wear it the ability to request assistance immediately. Unlike other solutions in the market, our panic button offers triple redundancy via LTE, WiFi and BLE capabilities and works on and off-campus. This is helpful for users that are lone workers, travel between campuses regularly, or accompany kids on field trips and sporting events.
CS: What is your company’s overall value proposition to schools, universities and/or hospitals? Why should they do business with you?
Ligrani: Intrado is dedicated to saving lives and protecting communities, helping them prepare for, respond to, and recover from critical events. Our solutions help bridge the gap between those in need of assistance and first responders, ensuring that no plea for help will ever go unanswered. Intrado Safety Suite is the only Alyssa’s Law-compliant solution to offer unrivaled connectivity to manage incidents on and off-campus, featuring triple redundancy and the unique ability to leverage dedicated emergency communication networks. Intrado’s solutions provide schools a lifeline in times of crisis and helps drive safer outcomes. intrado.com
