Newly Added Features to the Incident Tracking and Reporting
   Module of the NaviGate Critical Information Management System
          Will Optimize Incident Management and Reporting

NEW PHILADELPHIA, Ohio, Jan. 26, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lauren
Innovations has released an upgrade to the current incident management
module within the NaviGate critical information management system. A
new layout allows for faster data entry and the system is now
increasingly user-friendly while using a tablet or other touch-screen
device. Additional upgrades include the daily dispatch log, threshold
reporting and notification, and person/property tracking. These
improvements--coupled with the already robust features in the Emergency
Management, Document Management, and Learning Management modules--make
NaviGate the best-in-class system for any organization.

"The upgrade to the incident management module has been in development
for quite some time," commented NaviGate Technical Product Manager,
Chris Porter. "The input we received from our existing customers helped
us greatly in the development of the new specifications within the
system. The new features truly take us a step further in the continued
development of NaviGate.

One of the things I like best about a web-based system like NaviGate is
that the changes are seen instantly by the customers. There were no
patches to install, no hardware to upgrade, users simply sign on and
the changes are live. We have been working very closely with them
(customers) to ensure that the changes integrate seamlessly with their
current processes"

New to the Incident Data Reporting System

The Person Database is a new addition to the Incident Data Reporting
System. This feature provides the ability to track the history of
addresses and vehicles related to a person within the system. Users can
create associations between people in the database, such as a roommate
or spouse, and make links based on address, incidents, or vehicles.
This technology will enable an organization, such as a shopping mall,
to better track incidents including merchandise theft or vehicle
break-ins. The added ability to scan ID badges, driver's licenses, and
other forms of identification make for easy data entry and reduces the
risk for keying errors.

The Daily Dispatch Log is another added feature in the Incident Data
Reporting System. Users can now track all activity, from initial
request to completion, for security, maintenance, or any other
department that can be dispatched. System administrators can report on
any staff activity by a specific site, or every building or property
under their domain. Administrators can also make events private and
control what users have access to see on a given report.

Upgrades and Modifications

The evidence/property module within NaviGate has been given added
features to make it more user-friendly. Users will still be able to
enter and upload inventory and evidence lists and photographs, but now
a full, searchable history of any given item will allow users to see
who checked out an asset, and when it is anticipated to return. The
ability to print bar codes directly from the system is another upgrade
to the evidence/property module. Quickly track and store items with the
click of any barcode scanner or existing bar-coding system.

Administrator management controls have also been modified to allow
users to build multiple category lists and manage all lists from the
top level down. Users can create, customize and manage all roles from
the top level, and local details can be managed globally throughout the
system or at the site level. The ability to mark incidents as "secure"
will guarantee that only users with authorized access can view or
modify information within the system.
