MDPD will implement NICE solution in four county-wide communication sites

Ra’anana, Israel, November 18, 2008 - NICE Systems, the global provider of advanced solutions that enable organizations to extract Insight from Interactions to drive performance, today announced the Miami-Dade Police Department has selected NICE Inform and other NICE solutions to capture and manage emergency communications at four County-wide emergency communication sites including a new state-of-the-art communications center scheduled to open in 2009.

The busiest Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) in the Southeastern U.S., the Miami-Dade Police Department Communications Bureau fields over two million calls annually. The Miami-Dade Police Department will deploy a fully redundant NICE solution, which will include NICE Inform and other NICE solutions all certified for interoperability with Miami-Dade’s mission-critical trunked radio communication system.

The Miami-Dade Police Department serves Miami-Dade County’s unincorporated areas and has law enforcement responsibility for a major international airport and other County sites. All of these sites utilize NICE’s video surveillance solutions today, and in the future the Miami-Dade Police Department will be able to leverage NICE Inform’s multimedia incident reconstruction capabilities as needed to synchronize captured video and voice communications for comprehensive incident reconstruction in critical response scenarios.

"The Miami-Dade Police Department has a reputation for being ahead of the curve," said Chris Wooten, President, Security Division Americas, NICE. "NICE is pleased to supplement its relationship with the Miami-Dade Police Department through the deployment of NICE Inform, our latest multimedia incident information management technology."
