Genasys announces new, follow-on public safety warning systems orders

Genasys announced a new emergency warning systems order from the University of California, Berkeley, and follow-on orders from the City of Laguna Beach and the Southern Marin Fire Protection District, SMFD, totaling $900,000. The Integrated Mass Notification System, IMNS, installations will be powered by Genasys Emergency Management, GEM, software-as-a-service, SaaS. "Our unified software and hardware alerting systems will enhance the safety of more than 45,000 Cal Berkeley students, staff and faculty during crisis situations," said Richard Danforth, Chief Executive Officer, Genasys Inc. "The new Cal Berkeley system installations will also be integrated with the City of Berkeley’s IMNS network. The expanded network and the city’s use of our Zonehaven evacuation platform will provide residents and students more emergency warning coverage and notification channels during public safety threats." Danforth continued, "The performance of Laguna Beach’s IMNS network during two wildfires last year led the city council to prioritize the further expansion of the city’s Genasys outdoor warning system. Certain system zones were activated to broadcast evacuation warnings to residents during the Emerald Fire in February and the Coastal Fire in May. No lives were lost in either fire."
