Today, we announced a partnership with International SOS, the global leader in travel risk management, security and medical assistance, and crisis response. Together, we are building the next generation of Travel Risk and Critical Event Management solutions with the Ontic Platform. International SOS will market these solutions as part of its medical and security services offering for its 9,000+ organizations worldwide.

We have been integrating travel data from International SOS into Ontic’s open platform for our shared clients for years. Their commitment to customer success is unmatched, and they are true innovators in elevating duty of care at organizations around the world. 

We are excited to combine our software expertise with International SOS’ experience and vision. Together, we will transform how corporate security professionals keep their people safe.

Simple, connected, complete

Today’s solutions for Travel Risk Management (TRM) and Critical Event Management (CEM) are overdue for innovation that addresses end-to-end duty of care. Companies are stuck with outdated, piecemeal solutions from vendors focused on acquisitions rather than delivering the seamless, connected experience security teams require to respond swiftly in a crisis.

Where innovative point tools exist, they only address one part of the duty of care responsibility. These point tools may tout interesting capabilities, like AI-driven travel notifications, but that AI doesn’t follow up and deliver medical assistance your employee may need urgently. As a result, companies are left to piece together their own software and service providers to make their duty of care program work from end to end.

Our partnership will deliver a much-needed upgrade. By leveraging the Ontic Platform, International SOS will provide modern, configurable TRM and CEM solutions. These solutions will make it simple for clients to detect risks and incidents using interactive maps, communicate with impacted employees across multiple channels, provide timely assistance, and track communication and program performance in real time. This powerful software, combined with International SOS’ extensive services network and delivery capabilities, will provide companies with a true “one-stop shop” for meeting the full duty of care requirements.   

Stay tuned

For our valued Ontic clients — many of whom are familiar with or already partnering with International SOS — the good news is that the new solutions we are building with International SOS will seamlessly integrate with your existing Ontic investment.

We’ll be sharing much more with all of you in the coming months, but in the meantime, we welcome your feedback and encourage you to read our joint announcement to learn more.
