PRESS RELEASE
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills games and events at Highmark Stadium are set to benefit from cutting-edge AI technology. This comes as Orchard Park Fire District, whose oversight area includes the stadium, prepares to integrate AI-enabled incident command platform, FLORIAN, into their daily operations.
Orchard Park Fire District, which protects approximately 30,000 residents and key areas including the home of the Buffalo Bills, will use FLORIAN to support their emergency response. The innovative software, developed by award-winning Buffalo-based tech startup 3AM Innovations, is designed to increase on-site safety, simplify incident management processes, and provide real-time situational updates. Fire departments across Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Arizona, and California have already embraced this industry-leading technology. Now, 3AM Innovations is proud to announce that the Orchard Park Fire District, located just 15 miles from Buffalo, has joined the ranks of those leveraging FLORIAN’s state-of-the-art technology and advanced AI capabilities.
Harnessing the power of AI, FLORIAN automatically alerts incident command when triggered by keywords or phrases such as “mayday.” It also offers 3D and satellite mapping, real-time tracking of personnel and resources, voice control and transcription, and instant media sharing. With a range of additional features to support incident management, FLORIAN’s intuitive interface helps incident commanders make quick, informed decisions when every second counts.
OPFD had the opportunity to test FLORIAN after winning a three-month trial at the Fire Department Instructors Conference in Indianapolis last year. They experienced firsthand the number of benefits the technology provides. Including FLORIAN’s Automated Personnel Location (APL), which enables the incident commander to instantly locate any member of personnel in real-time and track their route. OPFD noted this was especially useful during Buffalo Bills games.
“We founded 3AM in response to tragedy. Our mission is to improve the tracking of first responders during incidents and revolutionize incident management. Providing this technology to a fire district in our own backyard is a huge moment for us,” said 3AM Innovations Co-founder and President Patrick O’Connor. “Orchard Park Fire District covers 37 square miles (about the area of Manhattan) of rural and urban landscape, and they have been dedicated to protecting the community for the past 100 years. It is an honor to support them in keeping our friends and neighbors safe.”
The proximity of the Orchard Park Fire District to 3AM Innovations underscores the significance of this partnership. As they bring advanced AI solutions to the local community and ensure enhanced safety and efficiency at the Buffalo Bills stadium and beyond.
