📋 Tender Overview
Rostelecom installed the first intercom with an emergency notification function in Smolensk. The device began operating in test mode in a house on Isakovsky Street. The provider's classic "Smart Intercom" system is supplemented here with functionality that allows informing residents about possible threats.
Tatyana Shchelokova, Deputy Director - Director for Work with the Mass Segment of the Smolensk branch of PJSC Rostelecom:
"This intercom looks exactly the same as other smart intercoms, but it also has a warning function. If necessary, it will work automatically, and residents will hear information from the Ministry of Emergency Situations."
Oleg Shulyak, Head of the Municipal Institution “Department for Civil Defense and Emergencies of the City of Smolensk”:
"In the usual version, a warning about a threat sounds from loudspeakers on the street, is broadcast on television and radio, and also through sound-amplifying equipment from special vehicles. But it happens that street sounds are not heard at all through double-glazed windows, and residents do not watch TV. In these cases, notification via an intercom is targeted and the most effective."
Maxim Minchenkov, General Director of City Management Company LLC:
"The intercom is connected not only to the Safe City system, but also to the Unified Dispatch Service (EDDS). When danger signals are received, the magnetic lock on the door will open automatically so that people in the yard can take shelter inside the entrance or, conversely, residents can leave the house without hindrance."
Alexander Solovyov, Deputy Head of the City of Smolensk:
"Today, an intercom is the best alternative to a radio point as a technical device for alerting within the city limits. This option does not require the installation of additional equipment in the apartment, and the time it takes to deliver an emergency service signal to the device is within a few minutes."
