What is Munisync?

Traditionally, municipalities have dealt with separate vendors for telephones and telecommunications, specialists for radio frequency technology, and network/data management firms for information handling and processing.  Each of these vendors provides value, but different levels of connectivity.

Today, through the ubiquity of the Internet Protocol (IP) standard, many costs can be eliminated or reduced while simultaneously enabling work efficient work processes.  Voice and data solutions have, in fact, converged such that they can use the same broadband connection eliminating redundant telecommunications charges.  Voice mail, email and other systems can converge on mobile devices through what is called unified communications.  Municipalities can grow with the right technology infrastructure.

COLLABORATION  

STRUCTURING PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS THAT WORK

Often Vendors monopolize markets such that prices are never monitored resulting in automatic price increases and overcharges.  In some cases, outdated equipment still exists and customers are being charged monthly for telecommunications connections. Often through a onetime purchase of new off the shelf wireless equipment and process  or work flow engineering a city can eliminate recurring costs.

Small grant incentives are not sufficient enough to establish a solid private / public partnership.  Beta has deep experience forming innovative partnerships that produce lasting win win relationships.

FOCUSED MUNICIPAL COLLABORATION

MUNICIPAL DEPARTMENT COLLABORATION AND FOCUSED ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Municipal leaders often find it hard to foster collaboration between police fire and operations personnel.  Each operates independent of each other.   This causes a high degree of redundancy in the purchasing of telephony and broadband product.

City executives must see the true collaboration point which is as a customer relationship manager.  Accurately collecting and disseminating information to police and fire through proper permitting, MSDS, traffic data, and video surveillance promotes a natural collaboration as information supplier.

TECHNOLOGY  
SYNCHRONIZATION

REALIZE THE GROWTH POTENTIAL OF NEW OR EXISTING VENTURES

Many vendors have made it impossible to integrate their devices with other vendor devices.  They have implemented proprietary software standards and maintain archaic hardware devices which provide little in the way of information dissemination.

The Munisync partners have designed and developed a cost effective circuit that allows for open connectivity amongst disparate devices.  Traffic data, video, waste treatment meters, etc. can be retrofit to push data back to our standards based operations dashboard.  This patent pending system allows for increased vendor neutrality and reduces the total cost of ownership of your infrastructure.
