About Previstar

Previstar technology evolved from applications developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Previstar provides the industry’s most comprehensive application software for helping organizations plan for, respond to and recover from any incident or event.  Government and commercial organizations have used Previstar to prepare for bioterrorism attacks, protect citizens at the Olympics, and recover from the multiple 2004 Florida hurricanes and Hurricane Katrina.

Previstar’s software evolved from applications initially developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and deployed at the Y-12 Nuclear complex.  The Consortium of Federal Laboratories announced RAMSAFE (now Previstar) as a regional winner and national finalist for the prestigious Excellence in Technology Transfer award.  Today, after significant investment, and user involvement, the software is the industry’s most comprehensive solution to plan for, respond to, or recover from any incident or event.

The Previstar Continual Preparedness System (CPS)

The Previstar CPS is the only intelligent resource and information management system built from the ground up to automate NIMS, HICS, and ICS guidelines for preparedness, response and recovery. The Previstar CPS intelligently manages disparate and related resources as a single interrelated operation, and provides constant, detailed up-to-date information on everything from personnel and equipment, to facilities and supplies. The result: a system that enables effective management of resources and activities through all phases of crisis management: planning, response, and recovery.
