The Challenge

SISL had won the tender to provide a comprehensive Emergency Response System for a state police force.

The product involved management of the entire operations of the emergency response services, from the time the operator answered the call, through GIS-based location of the address and verification of the genuineness of the call, to transfer of the call to a dispatcher and control of the dispatched vehicle.

SISL had developed the entire software requirement with the exception of the integrated voice
logger, and they invited Vox Spectrum to provide a solution to address this need. The requirement was different from the usual Vox Spectrum installations. Here, the system would be controlled entirely by the Siemens software. Operators had the discretion to enable or disable recording of the call. There were custom parameters from Siemens’ system that needed to be stored along with the call.

Further, Siemens wanted all data stored in their central Oracle database.

The Solution

Vox Spectrum engineers analysed the customer requirements and devised a cost-effective solution that met all Siemens’ needs.

Vox provided an 32 channel digital / analogue hybrid system that recorded calls to the agents automatically. As the call was being recorded, the Siemens software wrote the custom parameters to the DGVox system. When the call was transferred to the dispatcher, the dispatcher had the option to continue or end the recording of the radio conversations.

These integration features were specially designed through the DGVox API.

The solution was deployed in February 2004, and has been working to the customer’s satisfaction ever since. Siemens has since integrated the solution into its standard product offering, and other deployments are ongoing.
