Joint Venture Unites Long Island Technology Leadership

(I-Newswire) March 22, 2010 - March 22, 2010, Bethpage, New York USA - V.C.O.R.E. Solutions LLC, a Joint Venture between two Long Island-based technology leaders, has been formed to provide real world solutions for homeland security, emergency preparedness, and rapid response environments.

Created by Balfour Technologies and Power Management Concepts (PMC), V.C.O.R.E. is the first company to be launched in the new Morrelly Homeland Security Center (MHSC) in Bethpage, Long Island.

V.C.O.R.E., Virtual Command Operations & Response Environments, offers an interoperable, virtual and four-dimensional visualization platform. The system brings together Balfour’s patented fourDscape® technology, a four-dimensional browser, and PMC’s MC Access™, a solution to manage facilities mission critical infrastructure assets for authorities responsible for securing and protecting infrastructure, borders, ports, transportation hubs, etc. The platform enables incident commanders, police and fire personnel, first responders, as well as security personnel and property management with vastly expanded awareness of developing situations in wide open border terrain, dense urban areas, or inside critical infrastructures.

The combined technology interactively visualizes massive amounts of available intelligence, surveillance and infrastructure data into a single four-dimensional Common Operating Environment to achieve mission-critical automated situational awareness. It provides all hazard responders with a complete integrated solution to optimize and speed effective decisions. The technology has been adopted as the Command and Control virtual operating platform centerpiece of the Homeland Security Applied Science Center of Innovation and Excellence (COIE) in Bethpage, NY.

The new V.C.O.R.E. organization is headed by CEO Eduardo Browne and President Richard Balfour. The management team includes Robert Balfour (CTO), Scott Meyers (COO), Bill Leone (CFO), and Peter Curtis CSO. Mr. Browne is also the Chairman of the Resident Research Partners of the MHSC Business Council.
