March 3, 2004—EnvoyWorldWide, a provider of enterprise notification services, and OpWatch, a provider of business continuity services, have announced a strategic partnership to deliver integrated business continuity, emergency management and real-time enterprise notification services.
The partnership combines outbound, real-time enterprise notification capabilities from EnvoyWorldWide with OpWatch’s new OpsPlanner 1.0 suite to give businesses a turnkey solution for business continuity management. OpsPlanner integrates with the EnvoyXpress API to communications-enable the OpsPlanner suite and leverage the reliable, scalable infrastructure built by EnvoyWorldWide.
The suite introduces key business continuity applications that form a complete BCM platform. The applications include:
- Continuity Planner—handles all planning and operations functions for organizations
- Incident Manager—focuses on notification and operations management in the case of events that can cause business interruption or service outages.
For companies that rely on the dissemination of critical information to maintain continuity of operations, EnvoyWorldWide is the interactive notification services company that provides the most reliable communications network for delivering that information in real-time.
The company’s EnvoyXpress is a scalable hosted messaging platform, built to create and distribute interactive text and voice messages, manage and track delivery and recipient response in real time. The platform has lent itself to the time-sensitive, bandwidth demanding business continuity communications application set. Through the EnvoyXpress API, OpsPlanner can seamlessly harness the power of EnvoyWorldWide’s infrastructure for faster implementation and recovery from any type of unplanned event. The combination of the two offerings facilitates a proactive communications approach to the problem/resolution cycle caused by unexpected occurrences ranging from natural disasters, to network events to crises.
