Read MoreHide Full Article

Motorola Solutions (MSI - Free Report) and the state of California have recently entered a deal in which the latter will use MSI’s Rave Prepare solution. Together, the two entities will gather data so the state’s disaster management and public health management efforts can be precisely targeted through Enhanced Alerting programs.

Rave Prepare offers web-based access and functional needs registry to enable emergency managers, public safety and health leaders to efficiently identify the individuals most at risk. This interactive web portal can have a wide range of use cases.

For instance, locating individuals with critical electricity-dependent needs such as ventilators in case of a power outage, evacuation assistance to individuals with mobility limitations and more. The solution’s advanced feature facilitates smoother coordination and efficient communication among various teams in a critical situation.

By collecting data, including language preferences, emergency access details, and mobility considerations, rescue agencies can improve the safety needs of the entire community. The state can use demographic data to identify areas needing attention and send out inclusive emergency notifications.

In 2022, Motorola acquired Rave Mobile, making Rave Prepare part of its portfolio. Rave was a top provider of mass notification and incident management, aiding organizations and public safety agencies in emergency communication and collaboration. This acquisition allowed Motorola to offer specialized services and solutions to government segments, public safety programs, large enterprises and wireless infrastructure service providers.

As a leading provider of mission-critical communication products and services worldwide, Motorola has maintained a stable revenue flow from this specialized market. It expects to record strong demand across video security and services, land mobile radio products and related software while benefiting from a solid foundation.

These systems drive the demand for additional device sales and promote software upgrades and infrastructure expansion. The comprehensive suite of services ensures continuity and reduces risks related to critical communications operations.

It remains poised to benefit from organic growth and acquisition initiatives and disciplined capital deployment. Its competitive position and an attractive portfolio for a large addressable market augur well for long-term growth.

The stock has gained 24.9% over the past year compared with the industry’s rise of 17.4%.
