CommAlert’s Story.
The CommAlert Group originally developed in 1993 in Edmonton, Alberta to provide support to the oil and gas industry with its first applications being two critical sour gas wells. Since then, the company has expanded to offer emergency communications, an emergency alert system, call answering services and lone worker monitoring solutions to a range of industries, focusing on the safety and health services sectors.
Recently CommAlert acquired two communications companies: Norplex and Tel-J, which have been absorbed under The CommAlert Group umbrella. Now with centres in Edmonton, Calgary and Saskatoon, CommAlert can expand its emergency communications and business call answering services to organizations and communities around the world.

Meet the President
Tim Carwell is the owner and president of The CommAlert Group. He purchased the company in 2007 after working with CommAlert extensively as a Technology Management Consultant. Interested in all things tech, Carwell was intrigued by their advanced outbound mass notification system and knew he could expand on that service and help the business grow internationally – he did just that.
From the Beaver First Nation located just outside of Fort Vermillion, Tim Carwell grew up in a family of community builders and like the members of his family, is passionate about helping others. Providing disaster and emergency communication services allows him to do that, and everyone who works for The CommAlert Group has the same priority: caring and helping others.
