Blackline Safety Corp. has secured new business worth US$1.4 million with the Australian water utility. After conducting a third-party analysis that identified Blackline Safety devices as the best solution for lone workers in the world, the water utility organization decided to partner with Blackline. They will be supported by Blackline's Australian Channel Partner to provide Blackline's Lone Worker Safety App, Loner Mobile and cloud-connected G7c devices. The highly regarded G7c device offers features such as SOS lock, fall detection and no motion detection, as well as real-time connectivity, giving staff a vital lifeline in the event of a security-related incident.
Over the past few years, Blackline Safety has announced several significant contracts with plumbing suppliers, with their state-of-the-art devices currently protecting half of the UK's water and wastewater organisations. Workers in the plumbing industry face numerous risks on the job, including exposure to explosive or toxic gases, challenging weather conditions, confined spaces, falls, meeting customers, and working alone in areas with little or no cellular coverage.
Peter Attalla, vice president of international sales for Blackline Safety, said that more and more utility companies around the world are choosing Blackline devices to help ensure the safety of their employees. These companies are looking for comprehensive protection from a single provider that offers a seamless solution without the need for expensive infrastructure or complicated setup. Blackline Safety solutions meet all the basic criteria.
The contract also includes three years of monitoring services provided by Blackline's Security Operations Center, which operates 24/7 and is capable of responding to critical security incidents within seconds.
