i-PRO and NovoTrax partner to address school emergency response gaps

i-PRO Americas Inc. today announced a strategic partnership with NovoTrax, an end-to-end life safety and mass notification company, focused on transforming school safety for K-12 institutions across North America.

This partnership brings together i-PRO’s video protection systems and NovoTrax’s EduTrax unified life safety platform. By combining their industry experience and technologies, the companies aim to eliminate long-standing integration gaps between video security and mass notification systems—gaps that can cost precious time in emergency situations.

“School districts need trusted partners who can solve real integration problems, not just add more systems,” said Masami Eguchi, President, i-PRO Americas. “By combining i-PRO’s mission-critical video capabilities with NovoTrax’s expertise in intelligent mass notification, we will enable educators and first responders to close critical gaps in emergency response workflows.”

NovoTrax’s EduTrax platform specializes in seamless systems integration and mass notification, designed to unify disparate school safety technologies and provide situational awareness. Its proven capabilities include real-time location services, AI-assisted threat detection, mobile and desktop alerts, and instant video feed sharing to first responders, whether in the field, in vehicles, or at dispatch centers.

“Disconnected systems and fragmented workflows create real safety risks for schools,” said Dave Gleason, President, NovoTrax. “We’re proud to partner with i-PRO—an organization that shares our focus on quality—to close those gaps, accelerate emergency response, and strengthen the tools available to keep our schools safe.”
