Everbridge Inclement Weather solution - How It Works

How it works

When teams operate from a centralized critical event management (CEM) platform, responses are rapid and coordinated.   

Before an event, Everbridge alerts managers to a potential risk so they have time to assess, then identify and locate team members or assets in harm’s way.   

From the same platform, managers can automate action plans and send communications, so teams have the information they need to act quickly.    

Afterwards, analytics pinpoint how to improve processes during the next event.
