The program has shown already now an unseen potential of improving public safety operation globally. The Goodmill multichannel router is a true “Blue Ocean” concept by enabling efficiency improvements, operation excellence and new unseen applications to be used. As modern applications expand and develop, they require broadband digital solutions, and the construction of dedicated broadband networks requires dedicated infrastructure and huge public spending. This is particularly true in the case of public safety and security (PSS) applications, which are used in some situations where fast and efficient access to the internet can mean the difference between life and death.
During the project we have seen that the information interchange has become fully location independent and the amount of information has largely increased. At the same time the economic conjuncture development hasn’t been advantageous and more and more public security organizations have abandoned their conservative expensive ideas and adopted new more economic ones. This means that all individual officers will soon have persistent access to broadband in their daily work, built by using existing infrastructure i.e. commercial networks. Interchanging PSS information over the national borders will be normal routines soon. And in case of large incidents even civilian connections can be used safely and securely by officers.
The business model provided by Goodmill Systems can reduce or even eliminate investment into new networks while simultaneously improving data security, reliability, coverage and resilience. Due to this program we have already tackled the major part of the challenges of providing reliable broadband access that police forces, ambulance services and other mobile (PSS) operations need. With this new developed technology Goodmill can help to:
- Eliminate big infrastructure investment
- Remove dedicated frequencies and proprietary technology
- Reduce network upgrade investment
- Increase local availability support
- Create a multiple network approach and
- Establish ad-hoc network capability and IP-based applications when providing high availability data access to public safety vehicles.
The estimated savings as efficiency improvements can up to even 100 000 euros per vehicle, as estimated by the customers during this project! If all public safety vehicles would use the applications, the influence globally would be immense. There are estimated to be about 3 million public safety vehicles is the world!
