Everbridge Inc. announced an expansion of its end-to-end Critical Event Management (CEM) SaaS platform, unveiling a comprehensive integrated suite of digital and physical resiliency solutions for global organizations preparing for “the new normal” in the post-pandemic world.
Digitally transforming how organizations manage, respond to, and mitigate a crisis, as well as protecting revenue while improving cost efficiencies, CEM represents a set of standards and best practices that CEOs and boards increasingly incorporate into how they govern operational risk from unplanned events.
The expanded Everbridge CEM software solution suite provides organizations with a comprehensive, end-to-end operating environment to take an “assess, locate, act and analyze” closed-loop approach to managing critical events in a volatile and uncertain global threat landscape, while delivering significant return on investment through increased revenue and reduced costs.
“It is evident now, more than ever, that seamless communication, collaboration and complete oversight of all assets — infrastructure, digital, systems and workers — is invaluable to decision-making and for mitigating the financial and human cost of unforeseen events,” stated a March 2021 report entitled: ”Strategic Focus: Critical Event Management For EHS And Risk Management” by Verdantix. “Critical event management (CEM) solutions help firms manage and respond effectively to such unforeseen events, ensuring resilience and saving lives.”
More than 5,600 global firms rely on Everbridge to keep their people safe and organizations running.
