AVTECH Software and Room Alert Approved for GSA Advantage Environment monitors and sensors from Rhode Island company now available for government and municipality purchase directly through federal GSA program

February 08, 2017 Warren, RI – AVTECH Software (AVTECH) is pleased to announce that its entire line of Room Alert proactive temperature and environment monitors and sensors is now available for purchase by government and municipal entities through the GSA Advantage program.

Room Alert, the world’s most popular environment monitor, is made in the USA and proactively monitors environment conditions such as temperature, humidity, flood, power, smoke, and more. Room Alert is currently in use in over 180 countries by organizations ranging from thousands of SMBs through Amazon, Boeing, Sprint, Microsoft, over 80% of the Fortune 1000, the United Nations, Pentagon, and all branches of the US military.

AVTECH’s Room Alert helps organizations monitor the environment threats that can cause data loss and downtime. Many business continuity plans include network and data monitoring that do not monitor environment factors that cause 30% of outages suffered by businesses. With models beginning at just $145, there is a Room Alert solution for organizations and applications of every size or type.

“Having Room Alert available to government and municipal organizations directly through GSA Advantage is a huge benefit for AVTECH,” said Richard Grundy, President of AVTECH. “GSA Advantage helps government agencies, including state and local government, easily purchase supplies to help prevent and recover from disasters. Room Alert proactively monitors environment conditions such as temperature, humidity, and flood which can help prevent facility damage by alerting to their presence before they cause downtime.”

Room Alert monitors are fully designed and built in the United States, making them TAA compliant for all agencies who can purchase through the GSA Advantage program. Additionally, AVTECH provides Device ManageR software and the GoToMyDevices cloud-based portal for Room Alert monitoring, management, and reporting. Both software packages are completely designed, supported, and updated at AVTECH’s corporate office in Rhode Island, making them TAA compliant as well.

AVTECH offers a wide range of digital, switch and analog sensors designed to help users monitor as many environment conditions as possible to help protect their facilities. All the sensors are available through GSA Advantage and made in the USA, conforming to TAA compliance standards. Room Alert users can protect their facilities by easily adding sensors to monitor environment factors such as temperature, humidity, flood, power, and smoke while also monitoring factors such as motion, fuel/water tank levels, and panic buttons as well.

“With our three decades of history providing support for government and municipal agencies, it was important for us to be able to help staff more quickly and easily purchase monitors and sensors,” continued Mr. Grundy.  “We are confident that the GSA Advantage program will help agencies and organizations proactively install Room Alert to quickly trigger alerts for any environment issues, rather than adding a monitor only after they’ve suffered losses and damages due to environment factors. Room Alert qualifies for both Disaster Purchasing as well as Cooperative Purchasing, which allows budgeting for environment monitoring in multiple ways. It’s never been easier for any organization who qualifies for GSA purchasing to add environment monitoring to their business continuity plan.”
