Chicago, IL - inSORS Integrated Communications, Inc., a collaboration software developer specializing in multi-point corporate communications, announces that the US Army’s Research, Development and Engineering Command or RDECOM through the Army Research Laboratory has agreed to another full year extension of support for its flagship collaboration suite, the inSORS Grid 2. RDECOM made use of an already in place $2,000,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement for the extended support purchase.

RDECOM has embraced the IG2's technology, with deployed systems at the ARL Lab in Adelphi, the Aberdeen Proving Ground, the Army Research Institute in North Carolina and the Whitesands Missile Range in New Mexico. As part of its commitment to utilizing technology to increase communications efficiency and effectiveness, more sites are being examined as possible candidates. The IG2 has made a positive impact on communications within RDECOM. Other benefits of the IG2 include - quicker decision making, access to resource people not otherwise included, and overall reduction in project production costs and time.

With its inSORS Grid 2 solution, RDECOM is now able to hold multi-site meetings that can be instantaneous or scheduled, can accommodate anywhere from two to 40 participants at each location, and that include full-duplex audio, 30 frame-per-second video, and complete data-sharing capabilities between locations. The inSORS Grid 2 architecture is also scalable to an unlimited number of sites, giving RDECOM the option to increase the reach of its communications at any time by adding endpoints.

The Commanding General of the U.S. Army Materiel Command (AMC) established the U.S. Army Research, Development & Engineering Command (RDECOM), as a new major subordinate command within AMC. This new command will restructure core in-house capabilities now so we can fully exploit the enormous potential that resides in research activities around the world. RDECOM will respond rapidly by integrating, maturing and demonstrating emerging technologies to field the right equipment, in the shortest time, for our Soldiers. RDECOM’s mission is to be recognized as the preeminent world leader in research, development and engineering of systems, whose hallmark is transitioning the right technology in the shortest time to our Soldiers.
