ANSWERS:

What is FlashAlerts?
FlashAlerts is a Managed Service Offering from Almada Ventures Inc. that provides customer oriented
communications processes for business, schools, colleges and municipalities. Processes include on
line registrations, customer self service selection, and complex notification requirements.

What is different about an on line service versus buying software?
On line service is available Anywhere, Anytime which makes it much more accessible than software that
is tied to a single machine or location. By being always accessible and having every user always at the
latest release the costs of ownership are significantly reduced and broader availability is provided to customers.

What specific School oriented services are delivered?
By 2007 most schools will be under pressure to deliver more online services to parents, students and
teachers while also lowering costs. Delivery of information to parents instantly improves safety and performance.
On line parent teacher interview management reduces workload and helps parents participate. To improve students
accountability for homework completion FlashAlerts provides Homework on line in a way that is easy for
teachers to input and reuse.

Who manages the day to day services offered to my customers?
You manage the ongoing interaction as an “administrator” within the system. This enables you to send
communications create events, manage calendars and more. The hierarchy of administrators allows for
each group within your organization to manage their group directly. FlashAlerts ensures that all services are
available and constantly improved and adjusted to your needs.

Isn’t this expensive?
On the contrary, the FlashAlerts service pays for itself in reduced costs of information delivery alone.
The additional workload savings through automating processes in ways that save employee time while delivering
better customer service can also raise revenues and facility utilization. Contact us to receive detailed pricing alternatives.

We have sixty schools in our Board.
How can I integrate FlashAlerts without building another technology Silo? FlashAlerts is committed to open
standards interfaces and API connectivity to all your other systems. The administration layer of FlashAlerts
makes it easy to manage multiple school information delivery and maintain consistent Board branding.
Instead of having separate software for calendaring, notifications, newsletter delivery, emergency response,
event management you can use one FlashAlerts approach to save IT effort, school workload and training.

We have many facilities within our municipality. How do you manage that?
We create a full inventory of each campus, building and space resource. FlashAlerts enables customers
to search quickly and find the facility they need to book including all details such as accessibility, costs,
accessories, and capacity. This maximizes the visibility of your facilities to customers and results in much
more effective utilization.
