Cadcorp for Jersey Fire and Rescue Service06/01/2011 |
| Jersey Fire and Rescue Service, UK, has selected Cadcorp's Incident Support Mapping System (ISMS) for deployment in their Command Support Unit. The solution is already deployed in a number of UK fire and rescue services, where it provides a simple and intuitive means of managing resources at major incidents. |

Will Stewart, Information Services Manager at Jersey Fire and Rescue Service, explained the business drivers behind the decision. "Last year we were faced with a wildfire which stretched our resources to the limit. We have a limited number of fire fighters on the island, and tackling the blaze committed our resources for days at a time. Quite simply, in order to make the most of our limited resources, we need to know where our teams are at all times. We need to see the big picture - immediately and always."
Jersey Fire and Rescue Service had to go to the market for a new incident support system, as their existing system was being discontinued. Mr.Stewart explained that any and all of the personnel have to be able to use such a system. It had to be intuitive.
