MANAGING INNOVATIVE PROJECT CO-FINANCED BY EU – CASE STUDY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT SMS-BASED INFORMATION SERVICE

Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2010, Vol 157, Issue 3

Abstract

SISMS Sp. z o. o. offers an innovative collective communication service between a local government, emergency services and residents using text messaging. This is one of the world's fastest communication systems of a large number of text messages to citizens. In a few seconds mobile users of SISMS receive crucial information. It seems that the SMS collective communication service has a great future ahead and great potential for de-velopment. This potential affects not only the growing demand for traditional communication, but also for communication in emergencies. The system passed a test during the last flood in 2010. It was used by emergency services in Poznań, Brzeg Dolny, Jelcz-Laskowice and dozens of local governments in several provinces. The study also indicates several barriers in decisions about purchasing the system, which include:ittle belief in new technologies; -associating a text message from the community with an advertising SMS from a TV station;-no awareness that it is an important asset in an emergency situation to have an up-to-date information;-no funding to purchase and maintain the system, which seems to be unrea-sonable by comparing the low cost of purchasing the system from the municipal budget and the benefits it offers to residents and the community.
