Motorola’s sophisticated two-way radio communication solutions help preserve
something that’s never been more important: peace of mind.
The world has changed. A new reality has emerged, a “new normal” in which safety
and security can no longer be taken for granted. This is a tremendous challenge
not just for local, county, state and national governments, but also for businesses,
institutions, airports – virtually every entity in society today.
In the “new normal,” traditional notification-and-response functionality, geared
to short-duration events, is no longer sufficient. Today, detection and prevention
are equally if not more important, and long-duration events are a frightening new
possibility. The need for interoperability and information-sharing across many users
has increased exponentially. Data transmission – for fingerprints, criminal and other
records, even facial recognition – will be a critical tool going forward.
Motorola has answered the call. With a dedication to understanding and meeting
the unique, extremely complex needs of our customers, with technology and talent
that could not be more relevant to the challenge at hand, we are hard at work help-
ing our customers respond – bringing new capabilities like integrated voice, data
and video together with the security and reliability that have made Motorola the
overwhelming choice for more than 60 years.
Need has met capability. It’s estimated
the United States government will
spend $1.5 trillion on Homeland Security
over the next five years; states are busy
deploying new communication systems
to enhance readiness and performance.
And the need is global. All over the
world, resources are being reallocated
to bolster security. Motorola has the
experience and technology, and we’re
meeting the need now.
