Local Authorities

Sharing information for the greatest social benefit

Local Authorities have many responsibilities. These include planning for civil contingencies as well as making provision for a wide range of educational and training requirements within their local areas.

You can check out how Excelerate is helping Local Authorities to meet their Civil Contingency needs by clicking on that specific section and reading about the HART Command and Control vehicles that allow all three emergency services to communicate quickly, accurately and securely under the toughest conditions.

Meanwhile, Excelerate already provides many local authorities with the required communication systems that enable mobile libraries and training vehicles to go out to remote communities and deliver a secure broadband connection via satellite.

As well as providing valuable educational and social Internet access and e-mail facilities, our technology also permits the transfer of all forms of video, voice and associated data via broadband satellite.

In these highly practical ways Excelerate is helping local authorities to ensure that every member of their community has access to the latest training and educational facilities, and above all, that they are truly connected and feel part of the community at large.

Another area where Excelerate technology can help local government and commercial enterprise is in the area of business continuity. Using our robust static or mobile satellite broadband and wireless communication systems, organisations can ensure that essential data is safely transferred and stored for future use.

Using a safe location and our secure technology to back-up data and systems is an ideal way to promote business continuity and local government activity in the event of a major incident or breakdown in normal communications or procedures. Excelerate technology therefore needs to be seriously considered as part of any Risk Assessment undertaken by your organisation.
