About BYND
When the building is the emergency, where are your plans?
Municipal emergency management | Fire Chiefs • CEMCs • Emergency Operations Centres
Picture this: a major incident hits and you can't get into City Hall. The Fire Chief is directing the response. The CEMC and designated municipal officials are activating the Emergency Operations Centre (EOC). And the plans, contact information and business continuity records they need may be inside the very building they can't get into.
Your team needs access to critical information wherever the emergency takes them, not only when municipal buildings, networks or internet connections are available.
Meet PlanConnect
PlanConnect, from BYND, is a mobile app that puts your municipality's emergency plans and critical information on the mobile devices of authorized personnel. Easy step-by-step navigation helps people find the right procedure and move between plans without losing their place. Plans stay available without an internet connection.
From the incident site to the EOC
Your Fire Chief and CEMC might be the same person or different members of your team. Either way, PlanConnect helps put a consistent set of plans and resources in the hands of the people who need them: the Chief, the Deputy, the CEMC and selected EOC officials.
It's a practical companion to your municipality's existing emergency management processes and Incident Management System (IMS)/ICS.
