Minneapolis, Minn. (Aug. 20, 2012) ? Avtec Inc. announced its latest software release, Scout^TM 2.4, is now in controlled deployment to six customer sites. Scout 2.4 is a Project 25 (P25)-compliant solution that incorporates several elements that enhance connectivity capabilities, reporting, and the dispatchers? experience.

Two-thirds of the participants in the Avtec Scout 2.4 controlled deployment program are public safety customers. ?We understand the public safety market. We installed our first console solution in a public safety call center in 1991. Now, we have more than 100 public safety customers who rely on our technology to dispatch emergency services in mission-critical situations,? said Avtec?s Director of Product Marketing, Michael Ridge.

The Scout with Frontier^? solution will be demonstrated in Avtec?s booth #413 during the 2012 Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) conference in Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 19-22.

Scout Reports ^TM is an optional tool that monitors voice traffic, call load, and channel use; and based on that data, allows call center managers to effectively allocate resources. ?Also available is the optional Scout Console API Software Development Kit (SDK) that includes tools, documentation, and samples that can be used to write, build, test and deploy Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) applications to communicate with the Avtec Scout product suite.
