Public safety

Overview

YAVA integrates surveillance, communications and control-room systems into one operational picture, so public-safety operators can see what is happening and act on it.

Public safety agencies, control-room operators and municipal safety programmes.

Public safety operational environment

The environment

What this setting is like.

Public-safety operations depend on bringing many feeds together: cameras, sensors, communications and field units, often from different systems and eras. The value is in integration and a control environment operators can actually run an incident from.

Risk and resilience

Public-safety systems are judged in the moment they are needed. We design for availability, integrate feeds into a usable picture, and support the result around the clock.

Operational and technical challenges

Where it goes wrong.

  • Surveillance, sensor and communications feeds from separate systems
  • Control rooms that show data but not a usable picture
  • Communications that must work in an incident
  • Systems that must be supported around the clock

Systems we work on

What YAVA can assess, design, integrate, build or support.

The mix depends on the asset. YAVA is an integrator, not a single-product vendor, and selects equipment against the requirement from a vetted supplier network.

  • Surveillance and video management integration
  • Command-and-control environments
  • Secure and resilient communications
  • Sensor, ANPR and access integration
  • Control-room design
  • 24 hour support

How YAVA delivers

Delivery.

We integrate feeds into a single picture, design control rooms operators can work from, and support the systems continuously. YAVA is a technology integrator, not a provider of policing or security personnel.

One accountable team

Advice, build, integration, deployment and support come from one team, so there is a single point of accountability for the whole environment.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does YAVA provide security personnel?

No. We are a technology and systems integrator. We integrate and support the systems that public-safety operators use, not the personnel.

Can you bring existing feeds into one control room?

Yes. Integrating separate surveillance, sensor and communications feeds into one operational picture is the core of this work.

Can your engineers reach remote and high-risk sites?

Yes. A significant part of our field team is used to working at remote and difficult sites in demanding conditions with limited support.

Do you work around live operations?

Yes. We plan and deploy around live operations so that services and throughput continue while work is carried out.

Who supports the systems once they are live?

The team that delivers the work also supports it, with service levels including out-of-hours cover agreed in advance.

Can you work within our compliance and procurement rules?

Yes. We deliver inside existing frameworks and under the applicable compliance, data and, where relevant, export-control requirements.
