With the aim of reducing the risks posed to employees traveling on business, and the potential for costly claims associated with overseas incidents, the pioneering new TRIS application acts as an early warning system by monitoring threats and events occurring globally and immediately alerting subscribers to incidents that could pose danger or disruption to their most valuable assets.

TRIS provides travel managers, security departments and individual travelers with extensive and continuously updated travel risk information consolidated into one central resource. The system utilizes a latest generation operating platform to offer definitive visualization of assets and risk data. Additional features of the application include:

• Custom alerts based on geographic location, incident category and threat level
• Seamless integration with complementary systems and corporate intranet
• Full screen Google map dashboards, which can be custom-configured with multiple data overlays and heat mapping
• Risk trend analysis and reporting
• Customized travel risk briefs with the ability to incorporate company specific information

Calvin Pratt, Managing Director of Anvil Group, said: "Keeping employees informed about the risks associated with their trip destination has become more crucial than ever – particularly when considering the multiple terrorist attacks of the past year and unprecedented protests in countries like Hong Kong. These incidents have brought into sharp focus the myriad of challenges employees face even when traveling to countries that are generally considered safe. With employee security abroad climbing ever higher on the agenda, we're proud to launch our new TRIS application as we continue to lead the field in the delivery of technology solutions and associated services that help corporations fulfil their duty of care obligations."

In addition to the incident monitoring and alerting functions, TRIS offers a wealth of travel advice and useful information drawn from a multitude of sources, so that users understand the risk factors associated with their destination before embarking on a business trip. Users can access vital pre and active trip information, such as security overviews, government travel warnings and health information for every country and major city in the world.
