IRVINE, Calif. – Principal Decision Systems International, PDSI, announced today that 34 agencies have upgraded staffing and deployment processes in the second quarter of 2010 by going live with TeleStaff, the leading solution for public safety employee scheduling and communication. The customers, comprised of law enforcement, fire and emergency medical services departments; utilities and correctional facilities throughout North America, selected the staffing software to improve institutional efficiency in workforce scheduling, provide online access department-wide and control administrative workload. In addition, PDSI also welcomed 16 new customers this quarter.

“We feel gratified to have been chosen by these departments, who all excel in their area of public safety,” said Martha Strittmater, Director of Customer Services. “Beyond the very critical need to modernize daily operations, the addition of this record number of live customers shows agencies are following through on their commitment to technology, and therefore, the public, by providing the most efficient system possible. Now, thanks to our even more accelerated implementation process, departments are online in less time than ever in our company’s history.”
