TORONTO, July 19, 2018 /CNW/ - iSIGN Media Solutions
Inc. ("iSIGN" or "Company") (TSX-V: ISD) (OTC: ISDSF), a leading
provider of interactive mobile messaging solutions for commercial
and security purposes announces that its Chilean reseller, Smart
Sign, has signed an agreement with a major mining company for a
pilot project for iSIGN's Security Alert Messaging ("SAM")
technology.
The pilot project is designed to allow the mine to familiarize
themselves with the operation and management of the SAM technology
and back-end reporting system. During the pilot they will be
sending messages utilizing the SAM App for Android and Apple
phones, as well as via text and email. This pilot project will
run for a maximum four-week period and will involve a selected
number of employees and management at the mining operation's
headquarters. This focus group of key decision makers will be
reviewing and assessing the best uses and applications for SAM.
Completion of this pilot will lead to the use of SAM at the
company's various mines located in Chile and potentially to their other South
American operations and the remainder of their world-wide
operations. The mining company employs approximately 6,400 people
in South America and 27,000
worldwide throughout their various operations.
The mining company is looking for a system that allows them to
communicate directly and easily with their employees on and off
site, for both safety measures as well as for normal
communications, including directing their staff to their specific
work areas prior to their arrival at the mine and to remind them to
bring the required safety and other certifications that are
specific to the areas where they will be working that day.
iSIGN's SAM technology allows the mine to meet their stated
goals. SAM can be used to communicate with their workers,
individually, in a selected group or en masse, as the company
chooses. The messages can be related to security or safety issues,
general communications or for safety and hazard warnings and
alerts. The company would be fully in charge of their system, with
access to their own back-end system to allow for immediate
communication with their employees when and as required.
Both iSIGN and its Chilean reseller, Smart Sign, anticipate that
this pilot and its conclusion will help with the discussions
currently underway with other mining companies in Chile, as well as with other companies in this
channel.
