Ann Arbor Fire Department Implements OnSite ERT™ Pilot

Ann Arbor, MI -- December 5, 2008 – The Ann Arbor Fire Department has launched a single-station pilot of OnSite ERT™, which it will use to track its firefighters while on scene at emergency events.

“We had a large apartment fire just last week where we utilized all the city’s fire resources. Keeping track of everyone was, as usual, very difficult. It just reinforces the need for an automatic system like OnSite ERT” said Assistant Chief Dziubinski. “We expect that this system will improve our operations and help keep our firefighters safe” he continued.

Russell Hanshue from the City of Ann Arbor IT Services Unit said “It has been great working with ERT Systems. They worked closely with us to integrate OnSite ERT with our geographic information system, and the end result is just what we’d hoped. Being able to see where resources are in real time, overlaid directly on our street and utility maps, gives the responders a huge advantage.”

“While we’ve added quite a few cities in the US and Canada to our customer list this year, it’s great to get our hometown department using OnSite ERT” said Dennis Carmichael, President of ERT Systems, which is based in Ann Arbor. “We’re looking forward to a successful pilot, followed by a full-scale installation. Ultimately, we’re looking forward to seeing the system implemented as a county-wide solution.”
