Twenty years ago, our emergency response process involved calling people on their landlines and sounding sirens. Since then, a great deal has changed, and we’ve been able to change with it. Through BlackBerry AtHoc, we’re able to leverage many different communication channels—social media, mobile devices, federal alerting systems, and more.

The fact that we can communicate so rapidly is a real safety benefit for Eastman. As far as emergency alerting is concerned, Eastman's needs were incredibly unique, and BlackBerry has worked with us every step of the way to help us create a customized solution that fulfilled our requirements in their entirety.
