PelicanCorp Software Boosts USA North 811 Capabilities for Improved Underground Utility Safety

--------------

Irvine, California – August 11, 2021 PelicanCorp today announces its partnership with Underground Service Alert of Northern California and Nevada (USA North 811) to create an industry leading notification service.

PelicanCorp’s advanced 6th generation notification center software, NotificationAccess, will enable USA North 811 to provide an intuitive and streamlined process while more efficiently handling rising ticket volumes.

“We’re excited to announce this new direction for USA North on 811 Day. Our new partnership with PelicanCorp significantly improves our ability to implement leading technologies that will enhance stakeholder education, and reduce damages in California and Nevada,” said James Wingate, Executive Director of USA North 811.

August 11 (8/11) serves as a convenient reminder for residents and excavation professionals alike to contact 811 before doing any digging work, no matter the size of the job. 811 notification centers across America provide the required information and guidance needed to have underground utility lines clearly marked in order to avoid costly damages.

“We've been collaborating with USA North 811 for a number of years and enjoy seeing their success in the damage prevention industry,” said Duane Rodgers, CEO, PelicanCorp. “We're very excited to assist them with their new initiative and believe that leveraging our technology is critical to the success of any damage prevention organization.”

Hosted by PelicanCorp in a high-availability cloud environment, the NotificationAccess solution manages all notification tickets from any location, at any time, by leveraging advanced web and mobile-based technologies. NotificationAccess is built using a unique mapping platform, enabling the most accurate ticket capture on the market.

About USA North 811

Underground Service Alert of Northern California and Nevada, (USA North 811) is the regional notification center that serves 49 counties throughout central and northern California (and all but nine counties in Southern California), as well as the entire state of Nevada. USA North 811 is a nonprofit 501(c)(6) association that is governed and funded by our 1,500+ member facility operators. The association operates a website and call center to receive notices of excavation from people that are digging. Instead of contacting each facility owner individually, the excavator can visit www.usanorth811.org, or call 811, and we will help them create a “ticket” to tell utility owners what type of excavation they will be doing and the specific area in which underground utility lines need to be located and marked.
