ATLANTA, March 1st, 2023 – Skyfire Consulting (Skyfire) (skyfireconsulting.com), the most trusted and experienced public safety UAS consulting group, today announced its strategic partnership with VOTIX (votix.com) — maker of pioneering and fastest growing drone automation, orchestration and remote operation software applications. This strategic partnership will allow VOTIX to leverage Skyfire’s decade of experience within public safety and to provide agencies a smoother path towards starting and operating Drone First Responder (DFR) programs.

Skyfire and VOTIX look to continue their rapid growth, with focus on DFR, by working closely with agencies and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to get faster regulatory approvals – including beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) – appropriate training for both DFR and tactical UAS response, program site selection and more.

“This partnership between Skyfire and VOTIX is a shared vision and allows day one execution, as VOTIX brings their capabilities of drone automation and response to the public safety market,” said Matt Sloane, Skyfire founder and CEO. “The Skyfire team’s knowledge of complex FAA waivers, best in class training trusted by local, state and federal agencies, and branches of the U.S. Military, combined with VOTIX software will be a game changer for our industry.”
