DATAMARK Technologies Earns Top Honors for NG9-1-1 GIS Excellence

Public safety innovator receives Frost & Sullivan's 2025 Product Leadership Award for Best Practices in the North American Next Generation GIS Industry

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DATAMARK Technologies, a leader in interoperable solutions for public safety location services, has received Frost & Sullivan's 2025 Product Leadership Award for Best Practices in the North American Next Generation Geographic Information Systems (GIS) industry. This prestigious recognition celebrates the innovation and impact of DATAMARK's flagship offerings, including VEP, a cloud-native software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that empowers agencies to edit, validate and aggregate GIS data in alignment with National Emergency Number Association (NENA) standards and Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) best practices, and the Location Platform, a groundbreaking suite of interoperable solutions that redefines the lifecycle of GIS data from the birth of an address to the moment a 9-1-1 call is placed.

"This recognition from Frost & Sullivan underscores DATAMARK Technologies' continued leadership in delivering practical, high-impact solutions that meet the evolving needs of public safety agencies," said Mitch Pinkston, CEO at DATAMARK Technologies. "With a focus on interoperability, data integrity and user experience, our VEP software and Location Platform are helping agencies across the country modernize their GIS infrastructure, reduce errors and improve emergency response outcomes. As the industry moves toward full NG9-1-1 adoption, our team remains a trusted partner in building the systems that communities rely on when it matters most."

Frost & Sullivan Excellence Awards honor companies that consistently create and apply growth strategies based on a clear understanding of future trends. These companies spot emerging opportunities early and develop solutions that set them apart and support long-term success. This is DATAMARK Technologies' third product innovation award from Frost & Sullivan, emphasizing the firm's dedication to facilitating NG9-1-1 through interoperable, innovative and client-centric geospatial solutions.

"A core strength lies in the platform's ability to drive workflow efficiency," said Brent Iadarola, Practice Area Leader at Frost & Sullivan. "Unlike competitors that require additional software for automation, DATAMARK Technologies' solutions include built-in capabilities that streamline the validation process. The platform's native automation enables users to conduct validations on-demand, scheduling them nightly or at custom intervals without restriction, optimizing operations and enhancing data integrity."
