Intrado, formerly West Corporation, is an American telecommunications company. It was purchased by private equity firm Apollo Global Management on October 11, 2017.[1][4]

Business Operations

[edit]

Intrado is reorganized in five main segments: Cloud Collaboration,[5] Life and Safety (including 911 operations), Enterprise Communications, Digital Media (including streaming operations), and Health and Wellness (including healthcare claims and customer support) in 2019.[6] It spun out its telemarketing brand to West Revenue Generation Services (WRGS), also owned by Apollo Global Management in 2019[7]

History

[edit]

Gary and Mary West co-founded WATS Marketing of America in 1978.[8] The couple left the company in 1985 and Mary West founded West Teleservices with Troy Eaden in 1986.[8] Gary West joined West Teleservices one year later as chairman.[8]

During the first decade, West Teleservices hired thousands of employees and reached over $100 million in net proceeds.[8] West Teleservices expanded their products through a series of acquisitions, including Tel Mark Sales Inc., Intercall, Televox, and HyperCube.[8]

In November 1996, West went public with 2,000 employees.[8]

In 2002, West acquired Tel Mark Sales, Dakotah Direct, and Attention, LLC.[8] The following year, West acquired conferencing company InterCall and ConferenceCall.com.[8][9]

In 2006, West which had been publicly traded since 1996, recapitalized under the sponsorship of investor groups led by Thomas H. Lee Partners and Quadrangle Group.[8] Gary and Mary West continued to maintain 25 percent of the company.[8]

In January 2015, West announced the sale of its agent services businesses to Alorica. The sale closed in early March 2015.[10]

In October 2017, West was purchased by Apollo Global Management, a New York-based private equity firm, for $5.2 billion.[1]

On August 31, 2018 West Corporation laid off 148 employees between their Middleton, WI and Green Bay, WI location after losing a major contract.[11]

On June 25, 2019 West Corporation rebranded itself to Intrado.[12]

On September 11, 2020 Intrado acquired Syn-Apps LLC, developer of mass notification software.[clarification needed] [13]

On December 20, 2020 Intrado acquired Asparia, a leading provider of patient engagement solutions[clarification needed] for health systems, hospitals, and medical practices.[14]

On January 31, 2023 Stonepeak acquired Intrado Life & Safety for $2.4 billion. The Intrado name and brand will transition with the safety business. Intrado Corporation rebranded its remaining holdings to West Technology Group, LLC.[15]

On October 2, 2023 Matt Carter was appointed CEO of Intrado Life & Safety replacing Jeff Robertson.[16]

Controversies

[edit]

Intrado has had a history of being the responsible party for several technical issues causing 911 outages across many states in the United States.

In April 2014, Intrado was partially responsible for a 14-state 911 outage that affected an estimated 11 million people and 6,000 emergency help calls.[19][20][21] As a result, the FCC fined Intrado $1.4 million.[22]

In November 2019, Intrado agreed to pay $175,000 to the US Treasury due to glitches in their system that occurred in August 2018 that left millions without access to 911 access for 65 minutes across 6 states.[23][24][25]

In September 2020, 911 outages were reported across 14 states for more than an hour due in part to Intrado.[26][27]
