iJET® Announces New Global Protection System
Annapolis, Maryland - September 27, 2004 - iJET® Travel Risk Management (iJET), the industry leader in delivering real-time intelligence and proactive travel risk management services to multinational corporations and the travel industry, today introduced Worldcue® GPS, an innovative global protection system (GPS) for safeguarding people and assets, wherever they may be around the world. Worldcue® GPS employs advanced mapping, notification, and intelligence capabilities to make planning, monitoring, and crisis response more efficient and effective for those managing global risks.
"iJET has been providing corporations with reliable intelligence and the ability to track their employees and expatriates for years", said Bruce McIndoe, CEO of iJET Travel Risk Management. "However, we also understand that any threat posed to a corporation´s facilities and operations can be just as detrimental to business continuity. Worldcue® GPS will allow corporations to manage risk in a new way - now, they will not only be able to track, locate, and communicate with traveling employees or expatriates, but also monitor threats against fixed assets such as branch offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities."
Worldcue® GPS allows organizations to drill down to the street level on an interactive world map in order to see how a particular event may impact their facilities, operations and people in the area. This system also enables companies to retrieve emergency response plans and crisis management tools by office or location, giving organizations unparalleled access to critical information they need to respond to a threat or crisis.
"Worldcue® GPS is the next generation application for comprehensive, real-time risk assessment", said Bob Genzano, SVP of Sales & Marketing. "By providing corporations with a means to manage all of their assets through a single platform, iJET is continuing to fill the gaps in business continuity programs, allowing for the most efficient response in crisis situations."
