Helping clinical teams respond faster.
Hospitals rely on fast, reliable communication when responding to critical situations.
A major NHS Foundation Trust faced challenges with an ageing radio system and fragmented emergency alerting across radio and paging networks. Limited channels and outdated technology made it harder to coordinate teams quickly across departments.
OUTCOME
- Faster communication across clinical and operational teams
- Discreet alerting during sensitive situations
- Integrated radio and paging communication
- Auditable delivery and response tracking
Helping passengers report incidents quickly and discreetly
British Transport Police needed a simple and discreet way for passengers and rail staff to report incidents across the UK rail network.
Working with Critico, they introduced the 61016 text service, allowing the public to report anti-social behaviour and non-emergency crime quickly and safely via SMS.
OUTCOME
- Discreet reporting for passengers and rail staff
- Faster response to incidents across the rail network
- Integration with police control room systems
- Two-way communication with passengers when needed
Helping Fire & Rescue teams stay mobilised during network outages
Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue Services required a resilient station-end mobilisation solution capable of supporting joint emergency response operations across both counties.
Working with Critico, the Services deployed a next-generation station-end platform with intelligent mesh resilience, helping maintain mobilisation continuity even during primary network disruption.
OUTCOME
• Resilient station-end mobilisation infrastructure
• Intelligent mesh fallback capability
• Multi-bearer continuity and CAD integration
• Enhanced operational visibility across sites
