Goodyear Testing System Weekly As Part Of Emergency Communications Plan
Glendale, CA --[EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION NEWS]-- February 15, 2005 - National Notification Network (3n), a provider of mass notification systems, announced today that Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company (NYSE: GT), one of the world's leading tire companies, is implementing the 3n Mass Notification System to communicate instantly with its employees.
After a Goodyear administrator accesses the 3n System by online login or a phone call, the system will deliver customized communication to an entire database of uploaded contacts. Goodyear currently is testing the 3n System once a week as part of its emergency communications plan, successfully sending out trial messages to over 75 contacts in its initial database.
A 3n message can be relayed to modes of communications including phones (home, work and cell) email, pager, fax and wireless devices such as laptops, PDA's and BlackBerries. The system will keep reaching out to the contact until receipt is confirmed. 3n then generates a report that indicates “who-did-what-when,” and provides Goodyear essential compliance and legal support.
Said Cinta Putra, CEO and co-founder of 3n. “We are delighted that Goodyear has chosen the 3n System to be an integral part of their emergency communications plan.”
