The Monitoring Association (TMA) has introduced its first Emergency Communications Center (EEC) in the state of California to implement the Automated Secure Alarm Protocol (ASAP).

Launched in 2011 as a public-private partnership, TMA’s ASAP service is designed to increase the accuracy and efficiency of calls for service from alarm monitoring centers to ECCs.

“We are excited to introduce our leading-edge technology to our first California ECC,” stated Pam Petrow, Co-Chair, TMA ASAP-to-PSAP Committee.

“The team at the City of Riverside PD has been an extraordinary partner throughout the implementation process. We’re looking forward to a positive pilot program and the opportunity to welcome additional ECCs from across the state of California in 2023.”

The City of Riverside PD went live with: Rapid Response Monitoring, Vector Security, Affiliated Monitoring, United Central Control, Guardian Protection, Securitas, Security Central, Stanley Security, Tyco (Johnson Controls), Vivint, Brinks Home Security, Protection One and National Monitoring Center. ADT will go-live with Riverside during a second implementation phase in January 2023.
