HDS International to Begin Marketing to Missouri Public Safety Officials May 1, 2015
ST. LOUIS, MO -- April 20, 2015 -- InvestorHub NewsWire -- HDS International Corp. (OTC: HDSI), a technology development company, today announced that it will begin marketing enhanced 911 and emergency management tools to the State of Missouri May 1, 2015. Recently funded to begin marketing technology licensed from SirenGPS, HDSI will begin calling on public entities in Missouri encouraging them to participate in the Company’s Public Safety Initiative. HDSI’s Public Safety Initiative was motivated by coverage of the tragic loss of life due to the inability of emergency services to locate cellular callers and acknowledgement by Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler that 911 location services are “broken”. HDSI will begin providing location services as an enhancement to existing emergency communications in May.
HDSI CEO Paul Rauner explains: “The team has been working hard to ramp up our efforts to put location and communication tools in the hands of the public entities responsible for first response. May first we will be ready to start presenting to public safety officials across Missouri. SirenGPS enhances emergency communication with location and profiles. At the PSAP this information can make the call go more quickly. Distributed locally this information lets first responders in your community see what is happening in real time. We can instantly send location information directly to local first responders downstream from the PSAP even if we are not embedded in the PSAP. However, it only works if first responders in your community sign up to receive your location when you call. We encourage every municipality to sign up.”
As part of the campaign, public entities accepting services will be obligated to encourage their population to use SirenGPS Mobile, and transition their existing community messaging services to HDSI. HDSI will provide community messaging services at the same price as existing services. Interested communities should submit requests at http://hdsicorp.com/. Services will be installed on a “first come, first served” basis.
Community messaging for the six million residents of Missouri costs approximately $1 per person annually per person in contracts that service providers make with municipalities, counties and the state. The market for emergency management services in the private sector is significantly larger. Rauner says: "The State of Missouri is currently considering a surcharge to mobile phone bills to provide location service for emergency calls in Missouri. This proposed initiative involves technology that is not yet market ready and would take years to implement. Our solution is available now at less than ten percent of the proposed cost, and we could completely cover the state this year."
To support these efforts HDSI has negotiated with the management of SirenGPS to start working for HDSI. Rauner clarified: “Bernard Mangold, SirenGPS Chief Technology Officer, and Galina Berkovich, SirenGPS Chief Operating Officer, have both agreed in principal to begin working for HDSI. The subject matter and operational expertise the SirenGPS management team brings will insure a smooth transition and enable scalable growth as HDSI brings SirenGPS emergency communication services to market. We expect to finalize employment agreements with them this week.”
Mangold brings more than 20 years of experience in development and management of advanced research and development teams. Formerly CTO at Addion, he has worked at Microsoft Live Labs where he led a concept development team and developed a model for sustainable innovation and product incubation in the enterprise. Also at Microsoft, Bernard was Senior Director of Business Management for the Business Platform Division (products including SQL Server, SQL Azure, and AppFabric among others). Prior to Microsoft, Bernard was the Director of Research Engineering at Yahoo! Bernard holds a Ph.D. (D.I.C.) from Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine in London.
A graduate of the University of Missouri-Columbia, Berkovich has been an integral member of the SirenGPS team since the company’s inception in January, 2012. Responsible for operational and strategic planning, Galina’s business instincts, project-management acumen, and keen sense of our next-generation emergency communication tools make her the perfect fit for to run operations.
