Public-Private partnership
Securitas will be on-boarded in the near future. Launched in 2011 as a public-private partnership, TMA’s ASAP service is designed to increase the accuracy and efficiency of calls for service from alarm companies to Emergency Communication Centers (ECCs).
“TMA’s ASAP-to-PSAP continues its rapid growth across the U.S.,” stated TMA President Morgan Hertel. “The Irving, TX ECC, which serves a population of approximately 1 million, is anticipated to go live soon.”
