About enhanced 9-1-1 (E911) compliance
What does it mean for your business?
U.S. Federal Laws recently mandated how businesses protect employees in 9-1-1 emergencies because an effective emergency response system is a matter of life and death. Today’s business owners have an increasingly remote workforce. New regulations for 9-1-1 compliance ensure that businesses keep people safe when working on campus or remotely. Is your business equipped to locate a 9-1-1 call made on your network through any device, anywhere?
E911 addresses 3 business challenges for 9-1-1:
Challenge 1: Find
Can’t find the caller
Quickly finding the caller’s “dispatchable location” whether in a multi-story building, on a remote site, or working from home can be difficult.
Challenge 2: Route
Call is misrouted
9-1-1 call is routed and answered by the incorrect Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP), sometimes 100s of miles away.
Challenge 3: Notify
Failure to notify
Your security staff is completely unaware that someone in the building or on campus is in an emergency, thus unable to help the employee or first responders.

About FCC 9-1-1 regulations

In 2019, the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted rules implementing two federal laws that strengthen emergency calling: Kari’s Law and Section 506 of RAY BAUM’s Act.
