Desktop
Alert's Network-centric Notification System Procured to
Protect Troops in Harms Way
CHATHAM, N.J.
(June 2nd, 2008)
Desktop Alert,
Inc.,
a leading provider in network-centric emergency notification systems
being purchased by the U.S. Army today announced Desktop
Alert has been procured for usage in
Contingency Operating Base
Speicher Iraq, to
bolster force protection.
COB Speicher formerly FOB Speicher (Al Sahra Airfield under
Saddam Hussein) is a US Army Contingency Operating Base.
Previously a Forward Operating Base but reassigned as a COB
because of its size. Installations are located near Tikrit
in northern Iraq. The base is the location of the
headquarters of the Multi-National Division, North, (MND-N).
It is named after Scott Speicher, a U.S. Navy pilot who has
been Missing In Action in Iraq since 1991 when his F/A-18
Hornet was shot down by an Iraqi Air Force MiG-25 Foxbat.
Network-centric warfare (NCW), now commonly called
network-centric operations (NCO)
translates into an information advantage, enabled in part by
information technology, into a competitive war fighting
advantage through the robust networking of well informed
geographically dispersed forces.
With
desktop alert technology a robustly networked force
improves information sharing. That information sharing
enhances the quality of information and shared situational
awareness. The shared situational awareness enables
collaboration and self-synchronization, and enhances
sustainability and speed of command and these benefits in
turn, dramatically increase mission effectiveness.
“This announcement is a high point at Desktop Alert.
The decision to use Desktop Alerts' products in battle zones
for emergency communications by the Multi-National Forces in
Iraq
is further proof that Desktop Alerts'
offerings are by far the most effective, compelling and
highly affordable Enterprise-Class, Enterprise-Level Mass
Notification solution in the marketplace." , said
Howard Ryan, CEO and Founder of Desktop Alert Inc.
