CHICAGO — Motorola Solutions has acquired 3tc Software (3tc), a provider of control room software solutions for fire and rescue services and police, based in Leicestershire, United Kingdom, according to a joint announcement.
3tc’s computer-aided dispatch (CAD) software is “designed to maximize 999 call-taker speed and efficiency in high-stress environments,” the announcement says. The single-screen software “gathers and synthesizes critical data that enables call takers to display the real-time location of the caller and the closest emergency responders to more quickly dispatch help to those in need.”
“Every second counts in an emergency, and call takers count on CAD software to efficiently document critical information and quickly connect those in need with those who can help,” says Mahesh Saptharishi, executive vice president and chief technology officer, Motorola Solutions, in the joint announcement.
“We’ve long supported U.K.’s police agencies with advanced dispatching capabilities, and this acquisition expands our Command Center portfolio with a solution specifically designed for Fire and Rescue Services,” he says.
