Fast Company recognized Motorola Solutions for its safer schools
innovations. To respond to school emergencies like medical
incidents or active security threats, three key parties must have
the capability to collaborate in real-time: school staff and safety
officers; the 9-1-1 call center taking information and directing
resources; and first responders like police, fire and EMS. Motorola
Solutions’ technology helps connect the right people with the right
information for a more proactive approach to safety and
security.
“Motorola Solutions is centered on safety, and one of our
innovation priorities is to enable safer schools,” said Mahesh
Saptharishi, executive vice president and chief technology officer
of Motorola Solutions. “In an emergency when seconds count, our
solutions can automate detections and actions, facilitate
collaboration and information sharing and help accelerate
investigations. We’re fueled by our passion to build technologies
that can connect those in need with those who can help.”
The company has made significant investments, about $12 billion
in organic R&D and acquisitions over the last ten years,
building a safety and security ecosystem spanning mission-critical
communications, video security and access control and command
center solutions powered by artificial intelligence. The same
technologies that have long been relied upon by public safety
agencies are now being deployed by organizations including schools.
Connecting public safety agencies and private enterprises helps to
close communication and collaboration gaps, saving time that’s
critical when it’s estimated that reducing response times by even
one minute could save 10,000 lives per year.
“Having a communications pathway that allows school personnel,
9-1-1 and first responders to connect on one platform has been a
lifesaver,” said Kurt Mills, executive director, Snohomish County
9-1-1, a county near Seattle, Washington. “We had an active shooter
event in a school and learned how valuable [Motorola Solutions’
technology] is for communication and collaboration. The technology
has been invaluable during other emergencies [too], such as medical
incidents, fights and severe weather.”
Fast Company’s prestigious, annual list recognizes organizations
that have introduced groundbreaking products, implemented novel
business strategies, fostered positive social impact and reshaped
industries through their transformative approaches.
“When schools are safe, kids are free to learn, grow and dream.
I’m proud of the work we’re doing to help deliver next-generation
safety for the next generation of innovators so they can grow up,
solve problems and change our world for the better,” Saptharishi
said.
