Allegiant Air Deploys MissionMode For Operational Emergency and Crisis Management

MissionMode Solutions has recently signed with Allegiant Air, LLC to provide emergency notification and crisis management software as a service (SaaS) to the airline. With plans tailored explicitly for the airline industry (http://www.missionmode.com/solutions/aviation.htm), MissionMode is a convenient fit for both airlines, like Allegiant Air, and airports alike.

Based in Las Vegas, Nev., the low-cost carrier provides nonstop, all-jet service to top U.S. leisure destinations. Allegiant Air's director of safety and security first heard about MissionMode from an airport that Allegiant Air serves. The value of MissionMode to Allegiant Air was clear from their initial review for not only incident and crisis management (http://www.missionmode.com/solutions/business_continuity.htm) but also for operational uses. Timely and accurate communication is crucial for any organization operating within tight schedules where minutes count. Reducing the time it takes to communicate effectively can result in bottom line benefits in terms of costs - whether for daily operations or crisis management.

"Based upon Mission Mode's previous success within the aviation industry, and our thorough review of their services, we found the product to be an ideal match to our particular needs," Mike Baxter, Senior Vice President of Operations for Allegiant Air, said. "Since then we have found their personnel to be very professional, helpful and maintain clear understanding of our business. Although we are still in the early phases of the many uses of MissionMode, Allegiant has found the system to be efficient, easy to use and a labor and time saver in communicating important notifications in respect to various day to day operational issues."

Using any Internet connection, Allegiant Air staff and associates can log on to the site from anywhere in the World. They can also send out alerts and notifications to others who respond to the alert via landline, cell phones, SMS and e-mail. Once mobilized, users can access a command and control website to securely manage the incident to a successful conclusion.

"We are proud to have Allegiant Air as a customer in our expanding roster of aviation clients benefiting from MissionMode including airlines, airports and manufacturers," Malcolm Hafner, President, MissionMode Solutions, said. "As most companies have to manage increasingly complex processes and interactions, communicating quickly and effectively during daily operations and crisis situations is crucial. We look forward to working closely with Allegiant so they gain maximum advantage from their investment and trust in MissionMode and positively impact their bottom line through effective operational and crisis management communications."
