INTRODUCTION

Unified Notification Platform (UNP) is Honeywell’s foremost, industry- leading notification software. It is a unified Mass Notification Ecosystem that allows fire and life safety professionals to leverage a variety of notification assets, getting the right message to the right people in the shortest amount of time. As the most scalable and feature-rich notification solution on the market, UNP integrates with several IP-based endpoints and communication systems, enabling rapid alerting to inform and protect people located on- premise or off-premise. UNP improves network-wide communication, security, emergency responsiveness, and productivity. With UNP, organizations can facilitate enterprise-wide consistent, multi-layer communication for virtually any communication need, including real-time and automated notifications for emergency alerts, regularly scheduled announcements, mass notification and facility-wide paging. UNP eliminates communication barriers by uniting previously siloed and fragmented systems. It processes into a centralized platform to facilitate the communication of critical information more efficiently and effectively. It is the solution to mass notification needs used by K-12 schools, industrial parks, hospitals, office buildings, military bases, hotels, transportation infrastructures, factories and universities.

WHY UNP?
Fire and life safety professionals need to expedite the activation and broadcast of emergency messages to the affected group through a multi-layered approach in the shortest amount of time. UNP allows you to send critical notifications to alert the correct group by efficient means through a variety of mass notification networking options. UNP improves network-wide communication, security, emergency responsiveness, and productivity across your organization.
