NICE Wins $9 Million Contract from New York City for NICE Inform for its Next Generation 9-1-1 Emergency Call Centers
Selected for multimedia command and control capabilities, including advanced voice analytics, in massive emergency communications upgrade project
Ra`anana, Israel, October 01, 2007, NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: NICE), the global provider of advanced solutions that enable organizations to extract Insight from Interactions to drive performance, today announced that it has won a $9 million contract from the City of New York (NYC), on behalf of the New York Police Department (NYPD) for NICE Inform, multimedia incident information management solution for its next generation 9-1-1 emergency call centers. Contract revenue is expected to contribute to 2008 financial results.
New York City recently announced that it would be among the first to equip its 9-1-1 call centers to handle multimedia citizen interactions under the City`s Emergency Communications Transformation Program (ECTP). NICE Inform was chosen for the upgrade as part of the largest public safety project on record. New York City`s ECTP is a multi-year, multi-agency program initiated by the City of New York to modernize its Emergency 9-1-1 System to improve service to the approximately 11.5 million New Yorkers who require 9-1-1 services each year. NICE Inform will enable the City to capture, manage, analyze and reconstruct multimedia incidents.
The City also receives tens of thousands of requests for reproductions involving 9-1-1 calls and radio communications each year, many for use in court proceedings. NICE Inform will help the City streamline multimedia incident reproductions and investigations to aggressively fight crime.
NICE Inform is the world`s first full-spectrum multimedia incident information management solution for the security market. It provides ground-breaking capabilities for effectively managing incident information from various sources, including audio, video, text and data, streamlining of information-sharing, investigations and evidence delivery. The unique comprehensive capabilities of NICE Inform can be tailored to the specific needs of command and control centers for first responders and homeland security, transportation, government, and private sector organizations, and deliver improved collaboration and operational efficiency to enhance safety and security.
"We are proud to have been selected by New York for this ground-breaking emergency communications upgrade project," said Haim Shani, NICE`s Chief Executive Officer. "This is an important win for NICE, and one that reflects a trend of the large-scale security related deals we have been working on for multi-media command and control centers, addressing the needs of large city centers and mass transit systems, among others. Our vision and strategy for providing the most innovative solutions for some of the most critical challenges faced by authorities, is a key differentiator for NICE."
