Houston County selects Rave Mobile Safety for mass notification system
Summary
After a six-vendor RFP, the board accepted a proposal from Rave Mobile Safety (Motorola Solutions) for the county’s mass notification system; first-year cost $32,980, with subsequent annual costs of $24,080, a projected reduction from the previous system.
The Houston County Board of Commissioners approved a proposal from Rave Mobile Safety, a Motorola Solutions company, to provide the county’s mass notification system.
Commissioner Byrd moved to accept the Rave Mobile Safety proposal after a review committee evaluated six vendors; Commissioner Gottwalds seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The county reported a first-year cost of $32,980 and second- and third-year annual costs of $24,080. County staff said the selected system will replace the older Code Red platform and that the new contract represents an annual savings of roughly $10,000 compared with the previous service.
Chief representatives and procurement staff were thanked for conducting a thorough review: the RFP response and demonstrations were described as extensive. Commissioners said the updated system will provide modernized call‑out and emergency notification capabilities for the county. No public comment was recorded on the item during the meeting.
