Intro: The US Department of Defense along with Partner Nations and Allies require secure and efficient communications solutions to manage complex operations in multi-domain global environments to ensure the safety of its personnel and resources.
The EVERYWHERE Platform, a comprehensive satellite communications solution, offers tailored and scalable capabilities for personnel location information, expeditionary environment messaging, and remote daily sign of life situational awareness. Learn how the EVERYWHERE Platform integrates into a global operational framework focused on leadership decision making, to optimize search and rescue missions, logistical asset tracking, and many other capabilities which are essential to mission success.
Implementation: The EVERYWHERE Platform has proven invaluable in search and rescue missions.
Personnel are equipped with inReach® Mini 2 devices that allow them to establish virtual geographical boundaries (geofences) for specific areas. In the event that a team member crosses these boundaries or encounters an emergency situation, the platform triggers automated alerts, notifying commanders and relevant units. This real-time information ensures rapid response and enhances the overall safety of the mission.
Integrating seamless integration with the USDOD Mission Management Center and other existing tactical solutions.
This integration ensures that the EVERYWHERE platform becomes a single pane of glass operational ecosystem, allowing units to populate their PACE (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, and Emergency) Plans with real-time data and enabling commanders to make informed decisions based on up-to-date information.
