Genasys
(NASDAQ: GNSS), a leading global
provider of emergency preparedness and response solutions, today
unveiled the launch of the first Protective Communications
platform, Genasys Protect™, and its new corporate brand. Protecting
people and property for over 40 years, Genasys is used in more than
500 cities, counties, and states in the U.S., and in over 100
countries worldwide. Genasys serves both the public and private
sectors, including federal agencies, state and local governments,
and education as well as enterprise organizations in critical
sectors such as oil and gas, utilities, manufacturing, automotive,
and healthcare.
“Over the past 40 years, Genasys has continued to invest in
cutting-edge, safety technology that empowers emergency responders
to proactively address both the unexpected and the unavoidable,”
said Richard Danforth, Chief Executive Officer of Genasys. “We take
pride in equipping our customers with pioneering predictive
modeling capabilities to better prepare and target their response
plans. The continuous growth in our software and systems portfolio
is a testament to our customers' trust in Genasys to empower them
to be ready when it matters.”
Genasys Protect - The First Unified Protective
Communications Platform
Global climate realities dictate a new preparedness approach to
public safety. Since the beginning of 2023, the United States alone
has experienced 12 weather and climate disaster events with losses
exceeding $1 billion each, while scientists warn the developing El
Niño this year is likely to further escalate the severity of future
events.
In response to the growing frequency and impact of natural
disasters and critical events threatening public safety, Genasys
has made significant investments in augmenting its software and
systems to empower enterprises and federal, state, and local
agencies to test and refine response and evacuation plans.
With the launch of Genasys Protect, the company is introducing
the most comprehensive portfolio of preparedness, response, and
analytics software and systems, including new predictive simulation
models for various natural disasters and critical events. These
models enable collaboration between emergency and law enforcement
personnel to anticipate impact and response needs, conduct
comprehensive test plans, and coordinate cross-jurisdictional
activities before disasters hit. Additionally, Genasys launched a
new Genasys Protect community mobile app that enables the public to
access unified, location-based information and updates about
developments in their own, surrounding, or user-selected geographic
zones. The mobile app is now available for IOS and Android.
Specifically, new Genasys Protect capabilities include:
- Predictive simulation modeling: A range of
predictive simulation models empower proactive management of
changing conditions near or during critical events to identify
at-risk people, areas, and assets, that develop and refine
location- and context-specific response plans.
- Precision notification
targeting: Intelligent zone-based
planning drives the granular definition of geo-based segments, from
entire counties and fractions of city blocks to individual
properties and facilities, to ensure targeted communications are
finely tuned and delivered to the right people at the right
time.
- Unified response
orchestration: Comprehensive threat simulations enable
agencies and enterprise safety teams to coordinate multi-agency
responses, facilitating tighter collaboration and joint
preparedness based on a shared, common operating
picture.
“Our mission at Genasys is to empower safety professionals with
the most advanced planning and response solutions,” said Avnita
Gulati, VP of Marketing, Genasys. “At the core of our new brand
launch is Genasys Protect, a first-of-its-kind Protective
Communications platform, that equips emergency managers and first
responders with a common operating picture that dramatically
reduces response times during critical events.”
Strong Momentum for Genasys Protective
Communications Solutions
Genasys’ continued investment in advanced safety software
systems has paid off. More than 60 percent of California counties
today rely on Genasys to keep their communities informed and safe,
including most recently Santa Cruz and San Benito counties. In
Colorado, multiple counties and cities, such as Boulder County and
the City of Boulder, have adopted the state-of-the-art emergency
response and critical communications solutions from Genasys,
expanding coverage to 10 counties across the state. Additionally,
Deep East Texas Council of Governments (DETCOG) chose Genasys as
its multi-agency mass notification solution, serving as a unified
system for 11 counties and municipalities, accommodating their
diverse communication needs and assisting with resident outreach
programs.
In addition to serving the public safety sector, the Genasys
Protect platform is utilized across multiple sub verticals in the
enterprise sector. “We are excited to partner with Genasys Inc. to
improve emergency communications for the millions of visitors that
attend Fenway Park events every year,” said Brian Shield, SVP, CTO,
Boston Red Sox and Fenway Sports Management. “The safety of our
fans, players and employees is a top priority of the Red Sox and
being able to communicate quickly and efficiently across multiple
channels in the case of an emergency is a critical tool in ensuring
an inclusive, safe and memorable experience for all.”
In addition to the Red Sox, enterprises that have joined the
growing portfolio of private organizations leveraging Genasys
software and systems include Golden State Water (GSW), serving over
one million homes. GSW utilizes the Genasys mass notifications for
various purposes, including boil water advisories, maintenance
notifications, employee communications, and paperless billing,
enabling personalized messages to customers and employees
alike.
