In Leinfelden-Echterdingen has developed a fire service software, which should make the administrative work easier and faster. The Fire Department of Dubai is convinced that in the coming year is to “Fire Plan” are also used there.
Stuttgart – Bojan Slegel know that for the fire, every second counts – not necessarily only in the missions to which they are called, but also in the follow-up. The IT expert Slegel know why so well because he is a member of the volunteer fire department in Leinfelden-Echterdingen and has detected quickly during his playing days as a firefighter that the use of acquisition was very slow
.
“If you at three clock comes from an application, filling needs to go fix and be self-explanatory. Also for the colleagues who work little else with a PC, “says Slegel. At first everything was captured on paper, at some point you switched to a confusing system on the computer. Ten years ago, finally began Slegel and his colleague Sascha Hoffmann yourself, create a program for recording. Meanwhile, the two IT professionals are so successful that they have started their own business three years ago, the markets developed by them software Fire plan.
The Fire Department in Dubai, the software will use
Originally planned only for smaller, volunteer fire departments, it has now managed the software to large dams – and an order for Oman and Dubai, the two businessmen already. That your software 2016 installed even in the United Arab Emirates, has for Slegel a reason: The ease of use of Fire plan that is intended to enable each firefighter without much explanation, quickly entered the stakes
If you look at. maintains with the work of the fire brigade firemen at Messe Stuttgart on the software, you might think they would pay for their eulogies. Robert Koker is that day in charge of the administrative work and sitting in front of many computer screens, constantly beeps and flashes it somewhere. He may be aware, not least because the software is so easy, as he says: “The administrative work steals a lot of time in our daily lives, now it is at least easily and quickly.” Before you have another program is using, but that was have been far too cumbersome. “You can tell that someone has programmed is familiar with the work of the fire department,” said Koker.
emergency alerting via SMS
The work of military uses on the exhibition grounds yet not even all the features of the program – many are unnecessary for the professional fire brigades and particularly in operations of the volunteer fire department of benefit. So Bojan Slegel and Sascha Hoffmann have programmed a supportive alarm function, the news sent via SMS or e-mail to the firefighters when an emergency call is received. “The beeper to have colleagues with you, we can not and do not want it to replace,” says Slegel. “But as an additional support function makes sense.”
Also of great benefit especially for the volunteer fire departments the ability to cross-link the program: So the software is installed, for example even in municipalities which then access has the data and can settle the operations much faster. Networking reaches deep into the emergency vehicles: During a fire engine is in use, can be followed on monitors in the station in real time, which parts of its equipment – respirators, for example – are being used and which would, at least theoretically free for another application. ” / p>
Bojan Slegel already thinking ahead. He wants to enter, for example, in the mobile market. A corresponding app will then be quick and easy to use
