Strategic Collaboration to Transform Emergency Response in Schools with CATIE Mobile

Status Solutions and Critical Response Group Join Forces

In an era where school safety is paramount, Status Solutions has announced a groundbreaking partnership with the Critical Response Group (CRG). This collaboration seeks to bolster emergency response capabilities by integrating CRG’s Collaborative Response Graphics® (CRGs®) into Status Solutions’ CATIE Mobile platform. CATIE Mobile is already recognized for its comprehensive communication and response solutions tailored for educational institutions, and the inclusion of CRGs is set to elevate its efficacy significantly.

The CRGs provide crucial access to detailed maps of school buildings right from mobile devices, enabling school personnel to quickly locate rooms, critical features, and significant landmarks during emergencies. This integration is particularly vital during drills and real-life incidents, where having immediate access to accurate information can mean the difference between chaos and coordinated response. CRG is renowned for employing veterans from U.S. Special Operations Forces and seasoned law enforcement experts to ensure the precision and clarity of their mapping services. This commitment to detail involves personally evaluating each site to enhance reliability.

Mike Rodgers, CEO of Critical Response Group, highlighted the importance of this partnership, stating, "Integrating our Collaborative Response Graphics into Status Solutions' CATIE Mobile means that critical building information is now available right in the hands of those who need it most. It’s a practical, powerful step forward in helping schools prepare for and respond to emergencies with confidence."

Currently, CRG has successfully deployed over 50,000 maps nationwide, aligning with their mission to provide a unified operational perspective to both schools and first responders. By integrating this life-saving information into a platform already trusted in educational environments, the collaboration with Status Solutions is exceptional for enhancing school safety protocols.

The pilot of this partnership is already active in Caroline County Public Schools located in Bowling Green, Virginia. Jeff Wick, the Coordinator of Safety and Compliance at the schools, expressed confidence in the new technology, stating, "The integration of CRG maps into CATIE Mobile will give our staff greater confidence during drills and emergency planning. Having this level of detail and coordination at our fingertips helps us respond more effectively and reinforces our commitment to keeping students and staff safe."

Danielle Myers, Lead Evangelist at Status Solutions, affirmed the significance of this partnership, saying, "Partnering with Critical Response Group reflects our commitment to constantly enhancing school safety through innovation and trusted collaboration. By adding CRG's gold-standard maps to CATIE Mobile, we're giving educators and responders an unmatched advantage in protecting students and staff."

As the partnership unfolds, both organizations are poised to deliver increasingly intelligent and interconnected safety solutions that empower school communities and first responders, promoting a swift and confident reaction to any critical event.
