IMS Research Publishes First Mass Notification Systems Study
Mass Notification Systems (MNS) have emerged as a significant source of revenue for the world’s leading suppliers of fire and security equipment. According to its inaugural research report on this topic, IMS Research (www.imsresearch.com) estimates that in North America alone, MNS sales in 2010 exceeded $1.2 billion.
Looking ahead, MNS software products are likely to lead revenue growth. According to report author and analyst Michael Arluck, “the MNS software market is beginning to blossom and move beyond the military and higher education verticals where it has flourished in recent years. Two sectors with particularly healthy outlooks are commercial and healthcare”.
