PRESS RELEASE Danderyd/Gothenburg Feb. 12, 2019
Ortivus and Carmenta announce participation in new collaboration
Ortivus AB and Carmenta Public Safety AB have signed a collaboration agreement. Under the agreement, which initially applies primarily to the Spanish and Nordic markets, the parties can deliver a total solution with map, navigation, monitoring and electronic patient records to the prehospital market. Carmenta provides solutions linked primarily to navigation and case management, while Ortivus provides products for patient monitoring and electronic patient records. The collaborative venture will enable Ortivus and Carmenta to provide added value to their prehospital customers since there is great demand for total solutions that contain the systems that the two companies offer. Both parties will also be able to strengthen their presence in the areas and markets where they are jointly active as a result of the collaboration. Customers, who are primarily located in Spain and the Nordic region, will have a partner that can help them to specify needs and deliver a solution that covers the entire workflow in an emergency situation. Both companies are driven by a strong desire to develop prehospital care and to help their customers to develop their businesses. Carmenta’s innovative systems and presence in the market serve as an outstanding complement to the patient monitoring and electronic patient record systems that Ortivus offers its customers. “Ortivus has extensive experience with its current MobiMed system. We look forward to joining forces with Carmenta to be able to offer well-proven navigation and case management systems together with Ortivus’ electronic patient record system. This combination provides a package deal that is difficult to beat for customers in prehospital care who are looking for a total solution,” says Lars Höst, CEO of Ortivus. “We are extremely pleased to launch this collaborative venture with Ortivus. Our modern new solution, ResQMobile, for case management, routing and navigation is already highly appreciated by customers in ambulance and emergency services in markets such as Denmark and Spain. We are now two parties, with high-quality solutions, who can offer ambulance services in Europe substantial added value through a market-leading total solution,” says Johan Hedensiö, CEO of Carmenta Public Safety.
