In today's fast-paced and unpredictable world, schools need a reliable and efficient way to communicate with staff, students, and parents during emergencies. This partnership provides a seamless solution that ensures school officials can send instant notifications, alerts, and updates to all stakeholders in the event of an emergency.
Jonathan Elliott, CTO of Pikmykid, added, "This integration optimizes how schools manage emergencies by providing real-time communication tools to keep all stakeholders informed. Our objective is to equip schools with the technology needed to proactively address potential risks, streamline emergency responses, and safeguard the well-being of both students and staff."
Key Benefits of the Pikmykid-Vivi Integration for Emergency Communication:
- Instant Emergency Alerts: Schools can broadcast emergency messages instantly through Vivi's connected screens—like projectors, TVs, and digital signage—ensuring that students, staff, and parents receive crucial information in real-time.
- Enhanced Communication Channels: Alongside Vivi's on-campus visual alerts, notifications will also be delivered to mobile devices and administrative dashboards, creating multiple communication touchpoints.
- Improved Response Time: With real-time tracking and alerts, school staff can take immediate action, enhancing the speed and effectiveness of emergency responses.
- Streamlined Emergency Protocols: The integration enables schools to automate and standardize emergency protocols, reducing confusion and ensuring consistent communication during emergencies.
"In emergency situations, every second counts," said Natalie Mactier, CEO of Vivi. "By partnering with Pikmykid, we're providing schools with the tools to ensure that communication is not only instant but also reliable, so that safety protocols can be followed seamlessly and quickly."
The integration of Pikmykid and Vivi will be rolled out to schools this school year, with plans for a broader deployment throughout the 2025-2026 school year.
