French term or phrase: communication immédiate

Bonjour,
comment peut-on traduire "communication immédiate". je penche pour "instant" mais ne trouve pas tellement de sources sur internet...Il s'agit d'écrans publics permettant, entre autres, de prévenir rapidement les citoyens...:

"Disposer d’un outil de communication immédiate (alertes,…)"
merci!!
