The service will allow Republic’s 10,000 plus waste management personnel to communicate quickly and easily with a simple touch of a button.
“We like AT&T Enhanced Push-to-Talk because it enables our dispatchers to connect quickly and safely with a large team of drivers – seamlessly,” said Bill Halnon, CIO of Republic Services. “Our drivers face a number of obstacles in the field. Communicating with their colleagues should never be one of them.”
Enhanced PTT allows AT&T customers to communicate faster, use larger talk groups, and deploy across many types of handsets, AT&T said. It was designed specifically for AT&T’s speedy 4G LTE networks.
Key features include:
Larger contact lists and talk groups than competitive PTT solutions
Ability to combine PTT services and mobile applications, with help from AT&T’s team of mobility consulting and integration experts
Supervisory override and talk group scanning, features that were previously available only for two-way radio users
Sub-second call setup
