In a crisis situation, not only do First Responders and Emergency Personnel need access to standard communications, the executives responsible for employee safety and company assets have the same critical requirements. More and more companies are looking at emergency communications as a form of insurance, minimising loss in disaster situations. Altobridge can provide this 'Wireless Communications Insurance™', providing corporations with a fully managed emergency communications solution.

In a crisis, our immediate response is to reach for our cell phone or PDA. Why? These devices are the one consistent way that everyone can reach us and where critical email correspondence arrives. They also contain contact information and key phone numbers; so that they enable us to connect with those we need to. This ability to respond and immediately assess the impact of the crisis, and marshal the resources needed to respond effectively, could remove a threat to lives, minimize property and productivity loss and also address potential losses to clients.

Altobridge's Wireless Communications Insurance™ service involves the distribution of a number of small, portable communication cases to an organisation's core executive/first responder teams and/or locations. These portable communication cases include the required cellular and satellite technologies to restore emergency cellular communications within minutes between the affected teams and the world. Multiple satellite alternatives provide maximum flexibility for connection to the core wireless network.

Altobridge's Communications Insurance offers a fully managed emergency service that includes training, rehearsals and support which can be integrated with that of your existing cellular service provider. When a communications solution is required in times of natural disasters, the Altobridge RCC provides the means to quickly and reliably establish communications for corporations and their key employees wherever they may be.
