U.S. AIR NATIONAL GUARD NEWS

The U.S. Air National Guard (ANG) has commenced nationwide deployment of the Desktop Alert Total Alert Solution.

Desktop Alerts Mass Notification system is now being deployed to all Wings. The Desktop Alert (DTA) notification system has been pushed to most State JOCs and is available for all States/Territories, 88 Wings and GSUs.

Installation of the software enables Command Post/Operations to support alerts sent directly to desktop PCs and more. Alerting will also be provided via email, phone calls, SMS and texting. The second phase of the installation will integrate PA/Giant Voice (GV) and Security systems.

The Deployment Schedule is grouped into 4 priorities based on weather/environmental conditions. Hurricane and CERFP states are top priority and listed in group 1 on the distribution plan. DTA works within these prioritized groupings and is very flexible around desired installation dates per mission requirements and personnel availability.

The deployment of the Mass Notification Platform provides the ANG with rapid unified communications across the enterprise. When Phase 1 of the deployment is complete the ANG and the National Guard will be able to share critical communications across either network using Desktop Alert Common Alerting Protocol Servers.
