Emergency Management


At ADVANTIDGE, our team of experts have supported private organizations and government agencies during the most dire of crises. Our company was founded in May 2001, four months before the most notable terrorist attack in modern U.S. history. When the World Trade Center was struck on September 11, our team worked around the clock to help secure Los Angeles International Airport—successfully badging more than 45,000 airport personnel in two weeks. We work just as hard today for every one of our clients, big or small, without exception to support emergency management teams.

Protect, Organize, Maintain Order

Within the chaos and uncertainty of unexpected emergency situations, maximize order with an emergency management ID card tracking solution, which provides support and order with the credentialing and scanning of identification cards in an ID card system that can open up communications over multiple sites or workstations, and between multiple agencies with centralized data management and security parameters.

Identity Management

When emergencies occur it’s possible to have governmental agencies from the national, state and/or local levels present, as well as first responders, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), military commands, volunteer organizations, bystanders and victims all together at one site. Order can be maintained in these disordered scenarios with the fast and easy identification and registration of everyone who is present. The first step in an emergency management ID card tracking solution is to identify the various persons present by printing them personalized ID cards. Identifying the various agencies and persons on-site makes it easier to authorize those persons who are of service and manage the use of equipment throughout the site. With the option for digital ID’s, credentials can even be sent by email as a JPG or PDF so that they can be flashed via a cell phone to verify status or access. It’s important to have on and off-scene identification for personnel, equipment, visitors and victims in situations such as these.

  • ID ISSUANCE SYSTEMS: Print on-the-spot personalized ID cards to identify first responders, local agencies, volunteers with option for digital badge sent by email

Incident Management

Emergencies in places with large crowds in open spaces are a huge challenge. In these circumstances, order and efficiency of intelligence can be improved with the use of an emergency management ID card system tracking solution, which will work dependably through the most rugged conditions. Log the arrival of first responders, state and national agencies, on-site personnel and more. If credentials are issued with barcode or QR codes, managers have the option for physical or digital ID’s as these technologies work the same on a durable PVC card or smartphone to scan upon arrival. By checking in each resource, emergency managers can instantly view availability of on-scene skills, personnel with access to equipment for a local incident management solution. Learn which persons have leadership experience or lifesaving skills for quicker reconnaissance of missing persons, and increase the security of these dangerous areas by maintaining control of all access points. By issuing ID badges in advance or on the scene,  you can check in persons at ground zero or at entry points once a perimeter has been established for safe zones. Reduce chaos with an ID card tracking system which can report the time of entry or exit of people and agencies to the disaster scene, as well as provide what their qualifications are so everyone present can work more efficiently to make sure that all people get to safety.

  • ID TRACKING SYSTEMS: Scan ID badges to log arrival of personnel, improve awareness of onsite resources and give access to sensitive areas for clear disaster incident management.

Research Management

By establishing fields in the database for skillsets and access to emergency equipment, incident managers can view interagency data on the scene of an emergency using your ID tracking system. This can be shared with authorized outside agencies extending beyond the immediate area, such as local hospitals and police stations, to further increase the efficiency of the overall rescue effort.  Access information with up-to-the-minute responses and support that can provide a common operating picture of the chaotic event. Afterward, export this data to appropriate agencies for incident documentation and reimbursement when applicable.

  • ID TRACKING SYSTEMS PLUS REPORTING: Complete emergency management solution prints ID badges, tracks personnel & equipment and compiles incident data reports for easy submission & reimbursement.

Accountability

Accountability is necessary within any emergency management system, as some missions pose the risk that persons could become lost, trapped, or injured by the environment or structure. Relying on just a photo ID card to identify everyone present is not a sufficient system in an emergency, as it provides no accountability for the whereabouts of the person wearing the ID. ID cards identify who a person is, but during a disaster, if the movement of an ID card is not being tracked and the card is simply worn, when a person enters a “hot zone” it’s possible that no one on the outside will know they are in there. Without a tracking accountability system in place, ID cards can do nothing within the circumstances to log and locate people within the disaster site. Accountability should be an important focus in the management of all emergency incidents, from the beginning to the end of events.

Additional Considerations

ID card printer transport cases protect emergency management system ID card printers in their travels to, from and throughout disaster sites. ID card printer transport cases protect ID card printers from the hazards of spills, water, dust, smoke, animal hair and other corrosive environmental contaminants they may come into contact with during emergency and disaster situations. Protect emergency management equipment for a safer rescue effort.

Color-coded ID badges can be utilized to differentiate between agencies and persons and their tasks and responsibilities. When specific ID badges with specialized ID card designs are used in emergency situations they can help everyone present, by making it easier to identify and find the persons who can help those in need. Pair oversized and regular-sized emergency ID badges with custom printed ID neck lanyards which can further identify personnel with custom text printed on the lanyard fabric. ID neck lanyards keep ID badges secure and the hands-free to perform important tasks.
