McCord Communications is the authority in Mass Notification Systems for a variety of applications. Top quality in products and service is the approach we take to our business and that is reflected in the systems we design and all the work that we do.
Our approach to mass notification marries a myriad of products in an effort to notify as many people within the area of concern as possible in a timely and effective manner.
Whelen Engineering manufactures outdoor warning sirens which can notify those in outdoor areas with tone and voice, with specific information immediately. Technology and the industry’s nomenclature (Tornado Sirens, Warning Sirens, Weather Sirens), has changed through the years, but one thing has remained constant. These units can deliver a warning to large masses outdoors instantly, accurately and effectively.
Additionally Whelen produces products for indoor notification. Tone Alert Radios are a low cost and effective form of personal notification. They can be implemented to receive emergency activations. These could be used to notify a large number of people indoors (every household within a community), or a very specific group (administrators within public schools or college campuses).
FirstCall is a multimedia notification system that allows the user to notify anyone via landline, cell phone, SMS text or email with specific information in an instant. This system can even be used to mitigate post emergency situations via an inbound messaging service that provides up to date information to the community.
