Contract Expansion Adds 40th Facility

AUSTIN, Texas, March 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phunware, Inc. (NASDAQ: PHUN) (the “Company”), a fully-integrated enterprise cloud platform for mobile that provides products, solutions, data and services for brands worldwide, announced today that it has closed a five-year contract expansion for its Multiscreen-as-a-Service (“MaaS”) platform and patented MaaS Location Based Services (“LBS”) software at Dignity Health, Yavapai Regional Medical Center (“YRMC”) in Prescott, Arizona.

Incorporated in 1942, YRMC is the region’s leading not-for-profit healthcare system with two acute care hospitals, a network of primary and specialty care clinics, outpatient health and wellness centers, cardiac diagnostic centers, and outpatient medical imaging centers. Together, YRMC’s network of services provides medical care and wellness resources to a geographic area encompassing 5,500 square miles and covering the communities of Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Dewey, Humboldt, Mayer, Paulden, Bagdad, Yarnell, Kirkland, Skull Valley, and Crown King.

Phunware’s patented MaaS LBS software and beacon maintenance solution delivers proximity, sub one-second, real-time blue dot indoor positioning, navigation and wayfinding functionality across campuses and facilities while simplifying and streamlining the underlying beacon deployment and management for both facility staff and administrators. The software is not only ADA compliant, addressing the needs of anyone who is visually impaired, hearing impaired or wheelchair bound, but it also transitions seamlessly between indoor and outdoor environments.

This expanded deployment of Phunware’s MaaS platform at YRMC enables even more patients, staff members and visitors to easily engage with critical healthcare functions and navigate over 22 million square feet of covered medical facilities across Dignity Health’s growing network.

“Dignity Health’s leadership team has embraced digital transformation and is setting the standard for patient care by leveraging our cutting edge, state-of-the-art technology,” said Alan S. Knitowski, President, CEO and Co-Founder of Phunware. “We are excited to work with the team at YRMC, which represents the 40th deployment of our MaaS LBS software for Dignity Health.”
