The best business advice received in the fledgling days of Agility Technologies was, “do what you know”. After spending an accumulated 30+ years in the technical rescue and communications equipment manufacturing business, the decision to focus on developing equipment for people working in hazardous environments was a no brainer. Agility Technologies was created at the crucible of a kitchen table f
or the purpose of making a positive difference in the lives of the people we serve. We want our company to break out of the slow moving corporate equipment manufacturer mold. We will remain agile and open to the suggestions of our customers and provide exceptional customer service. Our initial job was to develop a new vision for our upstart organization. We spent time talking to rescuers, colleagues and friends around the world about needs, wants, and technical requirements. We also took the time to do extensive technical research into the creation and application of emerging technologies. Then we cross matched these with information gathered from potential customers and developed a strategy to design and develop the next generation visual and communications platform specifically engineered for Emergency, Military and Industry personnel working in highly-skilled hazardous work environments. This knowledge manifested itself into a visionary ecosystem of products that are supported by both hardware and software. The initial Investment and technical skills required to start the process were put into place and Agility is executing on the development of our roadmap starting with the FirstLook360 Camera. We are confident that the FL360 and its intuitive App will exceed user expectations, increase capabilities and open avenues for collaboration that previously have been denied due to currently available antiquated search equipment. We recognize the shift in higher user expectations for technical products and the need for cost effective, practical solutions. All of us here at Agility want to put the “TECH” back into Technical Rescue.
