Credit: Day Of Victory Studio / Shutterstock Motorola Solutions has acquired Noggin, an Australian company that offers cloud-based business continuity planning and critical event management (CEM) software. Noggin’s software helps enterprises and critical infrastructure anticipate, prepare for and efficiently respond to incidents. The company’s integrated platform offers flexible workflows, checklists, built-in maps and situational dashboards to help streamline incident management and strengthen business resilience. Greg Brown, chairman and CEO of Motorola Solutions, said the software enables response teams to communicate directly, follow unified procedures and view the same operating picture during everyday incidents or emergencies. Noggins complements Motorola Solutions’ portfolio of emergency coordination solutions, adding business continuity planning and CEM software that helps make enterprise security more accessible and actionable. The acquisition of Noggin expands the communication company’s ability to connect public safety agencies and enterprises, enabling the collaboration critical for a more proactive approach to safety and security. “Noggin enables the operational resilience and incident management capabilities essential as industries globally continue to see threats scale in number and complexity.” Although a Motorola spokesperson could not disclose the acquisition amount, they told ARN that Motorola would retain the Noggin product brand following the close of the transaction. “We expect very little will change for both companies related to existing projects, deployments and service engagements,” they said. “Noggin’s 130 employees will join Motorola Solutions’ International Sales team and AI amd intelligence platforms team.” James Boddam-Whetham, Noggin CEO, said the acquisition will allow it to expand its customer base. This acquisition rolls off the back of Motorola’s 10-year deal with Victoria Country Fire Authority in March 2024.
