phones. This is managed by establishing an alert aggregation center and gateway
to receive and validate messages and disseminate them to carriers using a
Common Alert Protocol.

comprehensive system for tender alerts, such a capability is essential to allow
the subscribers to take appropriate action as soon as they accept the tender
alert on their mobiles.
