OPPORTUNITIES:
FirstWatch
is a rapidly growing company providing real-time informatics used by more than
80 public health and safety agencies throughout North
America. Our first system
was deployed in 1999 in Kansas City as a
stand-alone utility for local public health to look for and identify trends and
patterns within the communities by monitoring 9-1-1 (EMS)
calls. After the attacks of September 11th,
2001 and the Anthrax letters, our customers approached owner Todd Stout and
asked him to make his FirstWatch system commercially available.
As
a web-based system, this network allows clients to develop custom analysis
packages, and receive real-time notifications when a concerning trend is
identified. Whether related to
bio-terrorism, pandemic influenza, crime trends, key performance indicators, or
simply situational awareness, FirstWatch has a proven record of being an “All
Hazards” system allowing clients to “Know first, with FirstWatch”
