The first few minutes of a threat or emergency are often the most critical and most fatal, before 911 dispatched responders arrive. First Voice’s Emergency Management Mobile Application (EMMA) empowers onsite bystanders and incident managers to use improved emergency communication whether for preventing a threat or during emergency situations. EMMA is designed to connect a network of users with varying privileges (including 911 professionals) and ensure improved and more reliable notification, emergency communication and emergency management during and after the arrival of dispatched 911 responders.Â
