Status Solutions announces strategic partnership with ICON Voice Networks.

Charlottesville, VA, June 23, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Status Solutions, provider of the Situational Awareness and Response Assistant (SARA), announces a strategic partnership with ICON Voice Networks, a leading designer, developer and distributor of voice networking and integrated office solutions and products.

Status Solutions and ICON Voice Networks have recently entered into a partnership, initiating integration efforts between both organizations’ development teams. The first phase of the integration includes the ability to use SIP to deliver real-time audio messages from the SARA alert engine to ICON Voice Networks SIP-enabled end-points, such as Iwatsu telephones, mobile devices, cell phones, land lines, etc. The integration allows users to leverage the Iwatsu telephony platform not only for person-to-person communication, but also for various alarming events related to life safety, security and environmental monitoring and awareness. SARA’s broadcast messaging functionality can also be leveraged through the Iwatsu communication platform.

“We have already seen how communications platforms such as the Iwatsu Enterprise-CS, are valuable assets for assisted living facilities,” said Don Gant, ICON Voice Networks Vice President, Sales. “By adding SARA as an advanced alert notification component, we are able to deliver more peace of mind for patient care professionals and patients.”

SARA integrates to multiple systems to provide enhanced alerting and reporting. Systems can include telephony, fire alarm systems, access control, building control, nurse call, patient monitoring, wander management, infant abduction, etc. SARA also improves operations by providing life safety assurance through mobile duress alerting with enhance location, security monitoring and asset tracking, environmental awareness via sensors (i.e., labs, server rooms, restrooms, pharmacies), and mass notification and broadcast communication capabilities. Innovative alerting solutions can help prevent loss of life, property, business and convenience.

“We see tremendous value and opportunity in partnering with ICON Voice Networks. Not only do they have a proven robust telephony platform, but they have an extensive channel network that can effectively extend our situational awareness systems, particularly to the SMB market. ICON has further strengthened its offering by its ability to leverage the phone devices as a dashboard for alarms and alert management using our software. This makes their phone system immensely beneficial to their reseller community as it creates additional opportunities to add value to their customers,” states Suri Raman, Status Solutions Director of Business Development.
