(TNS) — The New Orleans Police Department will soon partner with a public safety software company to help officers save time and equip them with valuable investigative tools, the agency said Thursday.
Mark43, the software company, is a records management system that will assist officers in drafting paperwork and conducting investigations, the department said.
“Public safety is our top priority, and this partnership with Mark43 represents a significant commitment to providing our officers with the best technology available,” said Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick.
The NOPD said benefits of the platform will be reduced paperwork, improved crime data collection, enhanced investigative capabilities and resilience and security for its officers.
This includes the department gaining access to information from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which can help the NOPD identify any potential connections to gun crimes nationwide.
“Safety is a cornerstone of a thriving city,” said Mayor LaToya Cantrell. “This investment in cutting-edge technology demonstrates our unwavering commitment to equipping our brave officers with the tools they need to protect our community. This is a major step forward in our efforts to create a safer New Orleans for everyone.”

NEW ORLEANS — NOPD is implementing new technology they say could streamline operations. It’s called Mark43 and according to NOPD, it’ll keep all reports and records in one place now.
“The purpose of this technology is to replace some of our existing systems, then integrate some of our other third-party applications,” said NOPD Director of Analytics, Jessica Nezat.
“So all of our data can live in one place which makes operations much more streamlined and it makes operations much more efficient for officers and down the line,” she said.
“It also improves our data quality and our accuracy and at the end of the day what we’re going to be looking at is full compliance with federal and state regulatory guidelines,” Nezat added.
Right now, a police report can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes, according to NOPD. With Mark 43, writing those reports will be much quicker.
“Anything that requires a report will be written into this system and our digiticket, if you receive a ticket that’s a different system currently that data will now live in this system as well,” Nezat said.
Less time used on writing reports means more time for officers to be out patrolling the streets.
“Making that more efficient enables officers to be more available and more on the street that’s going to help with our response times with solving cases faster that information will be there now,” Nezat said.

Fox 8 Live (Louisiana): NOPD launches new tech to improve transparency and public safety

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – The New Orleans Police Department hopes an upgrade in technology will increase transparency and improve public safety.
NOPD is in the process of implementing Mark43, a new cloud-based records management system. According to NOPD, most reports currently take 15 to 45 minutes to complete. The department wants to cut that number down so officers can proactively police.
“Making that more efficient makes officers be more available and more on the street. That will obviously help with response times and solving cases faster. That information will be there now,” said Jessica Nezat, NOPD’s director of analytics.
NOPD says once Mark43 is fully running, the platform will reduce paperwork, improve crime data collection and enhance investigative capabilities.
“Having better quality data, having more accurate data, having that data in one environment increases our ability to be transparent with the public,” Nezat said. “In terms of whether it is an incident report request down to the dashboards we put out so the public can see the stats, can see the trends and can see those things at any time.”
The NOPD says the system pairs with data from the ATF to identify connections between gun crimes across the country. Nezat says other agencies, like Atlanta and Washington D.C.’s police departments, are using the technology, and locally, the Louisiana State Police. Also, the system will feed into the entire Orleans Parish criminal justice system.
“Our data being accurate and through the enterprise service bus that has effects downstream,” Nezat said. “The accuracy and operations are streamlined for other agencies like OPSO, the DA’s Office and even the court system.”,
According to the city, Mark43 will cost nearly $4.6 million over the next three years. NOPD vows the system will meet all federal and state regulatory guidelines.
“Thanks to the city, from the Mayor to the City Council, for approving the purchase of a new records management system,” said Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick.
NOPD says Mark43 will launch department wide in about a year.
