Learn why thousands of Emergency Personnel across North America choose EmQ as their software solution.
First responders are most often thought of as firefighters, police offers, and paramedics. Many organizations, however, have trained response teams who are prepared specifically, for the organization they serve and its specific needs – like airport authorities, construction companies, EMOs, mining outfits and manufacturers to name a few.
These organizations, and many others, have emergency response plans that detail what they would do in the event of an emergency. EmQ serves these organizations before, during and after an emergency.

In an emergency, the top priority is communication with those who are needed to bring the crisis under control. EmQ software makes it easy to prepare with always up-to-date personnel lists that are segmented into expertise, geographic location and preferred contact method. EmQ software makes it easy to be ready in the event of an emergency – so that responders can focus on the crisis itself rather than making calls.
Reaching off-duty trained personnel to provide aid in the event of an emergency is critical. With EmQ, managers can send an emergency alert message to all personnel as a text, email and voice call, which staff can reply to by merely typing yes or no to indicate their ability to provide emergency support. EmQ sends, receives and records all messages and responses, avoiding unnecessary back and forth communications allowing both management and emergency personnel to focus on the task at hand.
EmQ reduces the administrative burden with the ability to easily generate reporting documents – so that emergency teams can spend less time reporting. Teams can also use the data generated by EmQ to evaluate what went well and how they can improve during future events.
The EMQ tab allows you to quickly send messages during an emergency.
Messages are sent from the EMQ screen, both pre-written messages and on-the-fly messages. From here you decide what message to send, to whom it should be sent and whether or not you need a response.
