The New Orleans Police Department took a big step in modernizing law enforcement operations with the full deployment of the Mark43 Platform.

According to City of New Orleans officials, this modernization initiative equips more than 1,400 sworn officers across the NOPD and 18 external agencies with a cloud-native Records Management System and Analytics solution.

“This technology deployment demonstrates our commitment to innovation and public safety for the City of New Orleans,” Mayor LaToya Cantrell said. “By investing in Mark43’s modern, cloud-native public safety solution, the city is building a foundation for safer neighborhoods and stronger trust between law enforcement agencies and the residents they serve.”

With the advancements of new technology, NOPD officers will be able to meet the needs of millions of residents and visitors every year during major events, such as Mardi Gras.

“Mark43 has delivered a modern, easy-to-use system that will save valuable time in the field, improve accuracy and enhance the department’s ability to deliver the highest quality of service to our community,” NOPD Superintendent of Police Anne Kirkpatrick said.
