Code Blue Partners with AMID Strategies

  • May 12, 2015

Code Blue Corporation, a manufacturer of emergency communication solutions, has partnered with AMID Strategies to expand its capabilities supporting the design needs of architect and engineering (A&E) firms as well as security consultants.

AMID Strategies will both bolster Code Blue’s relationship with security consultants and focus on disseminating the resources needed to make their jobs easier, including specifications, Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools and product and project design plans.

“Meetings with A&Es and security consultants are, by nature, not designed to serve as sales calls,” AMID Strategies President Ayal Vogel said. “A&Es need educational and forward thinking presentations by a seasoned executive who understands the consultant’s needs and sees the industry from a holistic point of view. This approach is meaningful and provides real value to consultants and manufacturers alike.”

In addition to the support provided by AMID Strategies, Code Blue has a number of resources available to architects and engineers who are considering the addition of emergency communication solutions to their next project. The recently redesigned codeblue.com/spec webpage provides visitors with a one-stop shop for design resources, including product sheets, specifications, case studies and best practice documents.

“Code Blue prides itself on supporting our customers, dealers and specifiers throughout the project design process,” Director of Marketing & Design David Fleming said. “AMID Strategies shares that vision and will help increase the feedback and dialogue on our products so that we can continue to meet the growing needs of our customers.”

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
