More than 300 public safety agencies use TeleStaff. The new version is a collaborative effort between PDSI and its users who provided important feedback during training seminars and the Annual Users Conference. TeleStaff 2.2 delivers new features and functionality that public safety agencies increasingly seek in order to effectively manage their unique staffing and notification requirements. TeleStaff's growing presence within the U.S. public safety market positions it as the leading and unparalleled solution for complete automation of staffing scheduling and notification for these agencies.

Used by mid to large departments across the United States, TeleStaff’s breakthrough solution completely automates the labor-intensive and complex scheduling and notification process common to these departments. TeleStaff combines a department’s complex organizational rules with its schedule and automatically staffs the appropriate personnel on the Roster at all times, quickly, accurately and fairly. The telephony component allows personnel to receive notifications and immediately backfill vacancies through automated call-outs, especially critical for the unpredictable staffing requirements of public safety agencies. TeleStaff produces payroll, FLSA, and other management reports, and personnel can manage their schedules using the internet, telephone or station computer. Staffing data can be exported to leading RMS, CAD and payroll systems.

"More than ever public safety agencies require the necessary automation to efficiently manage their staffing and notification process. PDSI continually strives to equip this market with the necessary solutions ultimately eliminating a very labor-intensive, manual process," says Greg Ekstrom, President of PDSI.
