DGI's CoBRA® Begins Global Deployment to US Marine Corps

DGI's CoBRAŽ Begins Global Deployment to US Marine Corps

Alexandria, VA - Defense Group Inc. (DGI) began worldwide deployment of its CoBRAŽ software to US Marine Corps (USMC) bases. CoBRAŽ is an easy to use decision support system that provides responders with the necessary interactive tools, guides, SOPS, checklists, report forms and incident reporting infrastructure to manage any critical incident. CoBRAŽ is completely customizable by the users, allowing them to input their own plans, checklists, maps, floor plans and other unique data.

The CoBRAŽ software is part of a central purchase made by USMC that also includes a custom built tool that integrates CoBRAŽ with Fieldsoft's FDonScene software, which is already deployed. By integrating the two programs, USMC seamlessly utilizes the capabilities of both. "The agreement between DGI and FieldSoft, clearly demonstrates how the private sector can work together to "connect" otherwise disparate software applications for the benefit of first responders," stated FieldSoft founder Mark Bouchard, "I hope other companies can follow the example set".

This deployment will help USMC bases globally prepare for and respond to Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) and other critical incidents. "DGI recognizes responders' global and urgent need for WMD preparedness at this juncture and applauds the Marine Corps for their advanced use of technology," comments Chris Boehm, Group Vice President of DGI's CoBRA Group.
