Administrators can initiate an emergency evacuation directly from the Teamgo web dashboard. The steps are as follows:

  • Access the Emergency Feature: Navigate to the emergency section within the dashboard.

  • Select the Emergency Function: Choose the type of emergency you wish to activate.

  • Choose the Location: Specify the location where the emergency is occurring.

  • Select a Message Template: Pick from pre-configured templates tailored for various emergencies (e.g., fire, evacuation drill, active threat).

Upon activation:

  • All individuals on-site will receive immediate notifications via email and SMS.

  • A custom message, along with any attached diagrams or guides, will be sent

  • The system will display a real-time list of all persons currently on-site, aiding in evacuation procedures.

2. Using the Mobile App

The mobile app, available for both iPhone and Android, allows administrators to manage emergencies on the go. To activate an emergency via the app:

  • Open the App: Launch the Pass app on your smartphone.

  • Access the Safety Icon: Tap on the safety icon located at the top right of the app's Home or QR-code screens.
