FieldServer Technologies Partners with Amika Mobile Extending Reach to Fire Alarm and Building Automation

March 21, 2012 - FieldServer Technologies has partnered with Amika Mobile to extend the reach of Amika Mobility Server (AMS) physical security alert system in the enterprise. This integration will allow automatic triggering of alerts from a myriad of fire, security, and building automation systems supported by FieldServer’s gateway and protocol conversion products. The AMS is unique with its automatic discovery of wired and wireless devices avoiding the need to continuously update user contact information in databases and its integration with disparate enterprise physical systems such as alarm panels, cameras, access control, etc.

“It is very exciting to be working with FieldServer Technologies given their vision and market leadership position in protocol conversion. This integration addresses the need that customers have expressed to us for physical system connectivity for critical and emergency alerting and further differentiates Amika Mobile in the mass notification marketplace.” stated Amika Mobile CEO Dr. Sue Abu-Hakima.

“FieldServer Technologies is proud to work with Amika Mobile. FieldServer's extensive library of building automation and fire alarm panel protocols provide Amika Mobile with the comprehensive solution needed to interconnect their mass notification solution with a vast array of devices.” said Richard Theron, National Sales Director of FieldServer Technologies.

According to Gartner’s January 2012 Market Scope report, emergency mass notification is now a Best Practice for the enterprise with a rapidly growing market - closing 2011 at $650 Million with a projected penetration growth from 25% in the enterprise to 50% by 2015. Gartner also describes physical security as a key integration requirement for critical and emergency alerting.
