Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) has banded together with New Zealand software companies TracPlus and Spidertracks to help halve the cost of integration between their systems for firefighting aircraft. 

“We’ve listened to feedback from the market and have been working with tracking technology provider TracPlus to help simplify the experience for aviation firefighting operators” says Richard McNamara, national manager operation standards at FENZ.

TracPlus’ CEO Trevor McIntyre says he’s proud to be able to bring a higher-quality and lower-cost integration service to the market and that the reduction in cost follows a period of investment into new technologies that have made the system more efficient and able to meet the needs of firefighting operations into the future.

Zandri Banks, chief experience officer at Spidertracks, said “at Spidertracks we work tirelessly in pursuit of our mission — making the aviation community a safer place to live and operate in.”
