Access to Critical Information in Real Time Helps Firefighters Save Time and Lives
Overview South Wales Fire and Rescue, one of the largest fire services in the United Kingdom, responds to about 60,000 emergency calls a year. Firefighters rely on detailed information to prepare fully for emergency situations, but, until recently, much of this data was paper based. The service worked with Microsoft Gold Certified Partners Computacenter and Trinity Expert Systems to build an intranet portal based on Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003. The portal offers all fire service employees access to detailed information from any station across the region. This integrates with a mobile, in-cab solution running the Windows 2000 operating system. By accessing critical information on these devices, firefighters are better prepared before arriving onsite.
