Exhibitor Press Releases

Resource and Asset Management (RAM) is a user-friendly asset management system that provides comprehensive documentation of all processes and data gathered throughout the life of a piece of equipment, further enhancing safety and compliance, and contributing to greater organisational efficiency.

As part of Dräger’s ongoing commitment to protecting, supporting and saving lives through its designs, RAM will support fire services promoting firefighter safety through a variety of operational benefits associated with excellent asset management of operational equipment. 

RAM offers fast and simple stock verification for availability and condition to help fire services manage each piece of equipment they have deployed, where it is through its operational life, and when it is due back for service or maintenance. It also provides integration of maintenance data for gas detection devices, and testing of equipment directly from the cloud. 

The software solution will also play a vital role in protecting firefighter health through contamination monitoring. RAM records data to ensure that the fire services professionals have a clear inventory of what breathing apparatus and personal protective equipment has been exposed to contamination, and what is available and safe to be returned to operational use. It also provides documentary evidence of the cleaning process of equipment after use to keep track of what is ready to be worn again safely. 

Liz Millward, Marketing Manager Emergency and Rescue Services expressed their excitement about the launch of the software, saying: “Dräger takes pride in designing technology that protects lives, and we are dedicated to keeping people safe through our designs. The new software plays a vital role in safeguarding firefighters by ensuring they have reliable access to the essential safety equipment they need. 

“Even after a fire has been put out, harmful substances remain as soot and vapours on the surface of their PPE, which can have health implications for the subsequent PPE users,” spokesperson continues.
