AIThority: Mark43 Announces Partnership With RapidSOS, Bringing Even More Speed and Accuracy to Its Computer-Aided Dispatch Software

By: Business Wire

Mark43 and RapidSOS partnership will enable public safety telecommunicators to access precise location information from callers in need and shorten response times

Mark43, the leading cloud-native public safety technology company, announced a partnership with RapidSOS that will provide 911 call centers that are using Mark43 CAD with access to RapidSOS enhanced location information, a partnership that will improve the response speed and accuracy of first responders.

“We are proud to be partnering with RapidSOS”

Through this partnership, Mark43 is recognized as RapidSOS Ready, providing telecommunicators with accurate caller location and rich additional data shared by RapidSOS. The partnership allows Mark43 to share robust data from the RapidSOS Platform – including dynamic location, health and medical information, connected building and alarm data, and more – with first responders in an emergency. This information provides first responders with unprecedented situational awareness so that they can arrive on scene faster and better informed.

“We are proud to be partnering with RapidSOS,” said Bob Hughes, CEO of Mark43. “When getting emergency help and resources to those who need it, seconds matter and lives are impacted. This partnership ensures that first responders using Mark43 CAD are dispatched as efficiently as possible and with the most accurate location information available. Public safety agencies deserve the best mission-critical technology, which we’re committed to providing. This partnership with RapidSOS is proof of that commitment.”

“We’re united in our commitment to empower safer, stronger communities with intelligent, data-driven emergency response worldwide,” said Dave Sehnert, Head of Public Safety Partnerships at RapidSOS. “Together with our RapidSOS Ready Emergency Community, we’re providing people with an added layer of safety and security and supporting our heroic first responders in saving millions of lives annually.”

Mark43 CAD operates as a natural extension of the dispatcher, call taker, and in-field first responder during an emergency response. Using this system, officers are able to take calls from anywhere, regardless of whether they are at a computer or on their mobile device. This keeps officers away from the station, out of their car, and in the field where they belong.

RapidSOS technology provides public safety telecommunicators with device-specific location information by accessing the GPS information inside a specific mobile device. This is a significant improvement upon how location information is typically determined, whereby a 911 call center or public safety answering point (PSAP) relies upon a cell phone network carrier to determine where the device is located.

The enhanced accuracy provided by the RapidSOS integration with Mark43 CAD enables telecommunicators to send first responders exactly where they are needed – to the device’s specific location. This partnership also reduces the call handing / call processing time by providing telecommunicators with an accurate location as soon as the call comes in.

Both Mark43 CAD and RapidSOS are cloud-native, and are far more prepared to support public safety and evolve with the landscape to provide the best security and resiliency that is available today, tomorrow, and beyond.

Mark43, The30×30 Initiative, and Mind’s Eye Productions announce listening session hosted by the Los Angeles Police Department

August 3, 2023 – Today, the leading public safety technology company Mark43 and the 30×30 Initiative, a national effort to advance women in policing, announced two listening sessions hosted by the Los Angeles Police Department. Today’s sessions are in-person, roundtable discussions for sworn women officers and detectives in California agencies, and includes participants from the Los Angeles Police Department, UCLA Police Department, U.S. Custom and Border Protection, U.S. Department of Homeland Security, San Diego Police Department, Santa Ana Police Department, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. 

This marks the fifth location for these listening sessions, following successful sessions in Baltimore County, Md., Philadelphia, Pa., Boulder, Colo., and Waco,Texas. Each stop across the country, co-hosted by Mark43, the 30×30 Initiative, and Mind’s Eye Productions is specifically designed to capture actionable insights to help attract more women to law enforcement careers and support their professional development. Following the focus groups, Mark43 and the 30×30 Initiative will share findings and additional recommendations for law enforcement agencies. 

Ganesha Martin, Mark43 Vice President of Community Affairs, Public Policy and Advisory Services and a Steering Committee Member of the 30×30 Initiative said: “These listening sessions have already proven to be a powerful tool in the critical work of finding solutions to recruit and retain women in law enforcement. We are proud to partner with 30×30 and the Los Angeles Police Department to bring together sworn women officers from 30×30 participating agencies to help pave the way for more diverse and representative police forces. Diversity matters. Communities thrive when they can see themselves represented in local policies, practices, and personnel. Bringing more women into the field strengthens the public safety profession and our communities as a whole.” 

Chief Michel Moore of the Los Angeles Police Department said: “As a signatory to the 30×30 Pledge, we are proud to host this listening session. The LAPD is actively working toward improving the representation and experiences of women officers in our agency. Conversations like the one we have today will allow us to continue to examine this issue to ensure that police departments reflect the communities they serve.”  

Commander Ruby Flores of the Los Angeles Police Department said: “We are thrilled to partner with Mark43 and the 30×30 Initiative on this important effort to hear from women serving their communities in Los Angeles and southern California. Thanks to events like this and the work of the 30×30 Initiative, we now have the research behind what we have been saying for years – that women make outstanding police officers.” 

Maureen McGough, Chief of Strategic Initiatives at the NYU School of Law’s Policing Project and co-founder of the 30×30 Initiative said: “More than 300 law enforcement agencies across the US and Canada have taken the 30×30 Pledge to advance women in policing by removing inherent biases and unnecessary barriers, and ensuring the unique needs of women officers are met.  We’re grateful to LAPD for their strong contributions to our shared mission.” 

Nationwide, women comprise only 12 percent of sworn law enforcement personnel and only 3 percent of leadership positions. Research shows that when there is a larger proportion of female officers, incidents can result in better public safety outcomes. Mark43 is committed to supporting programs that develop public safety workforces reflective of the communities they serve.  

Mark43 encourages law enforcement agencies to take the 30×30 Pledge and reinvest in supporting and developing women in public safety around the world. 

About 30×30 

The 30×30 Initiative is a coalition of police leaders, researchers, and professional organizations who have joined together to advance the representation and experiences of women in policing agencies across the United States and Canada. 30×30 was founded at the Policing Project at NYU Law, in partnership with police professional organizations like the National Association of Women Law Enforcement Executives (NAWLEE) and the National Policing Institute (NPI), with support from Microsoft’s Justice Reform Initiative. More about how to get involved, participating agencies and partnered professional organizations can be found at 30x30initiative.org.

American Security Today: Mobility is a Necessity in Today’s Public Safety Software Environment

By: Tammy Waitt

Guest Editorial by Matt Polega, Cofounder and Head of External Affairs at Mark43

In 2023, community members expect their local first responders to have the same mobile, modern technology that civilians use daily.

For many agencies, the lack of modern systems and software forces users to step backward in their professional lives. They work with antiquated technology systems that are slow and burdensome.

Mark43 took home the Gold for Best Public Safety Workforce Management in the 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program.
Mark43 took home the Gold for Best Public Safety Workforce Management in the 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program.

Many in public safety rely on a mobile data terminal (MDT) that is tethered to their vehicle to remain in communication with their team.

These older systems put first responders at an increased risk by not providing real-time tracking of an officer’s whereabouts or arming the officer with the right information at the right time for heightened situational awareness.

A recent Mark43-commissioned survey details that U.S. public safety professionals expect modern technology at work.

Most first responders (93%) said they rely on their mobile devices for emergency dispatch software, capturing evidence, or connecting with the community.

The sentiment across civilians and public safety personnel is the same: mobility is key.

(“Law enforcement turns to new tech solutions to help cops in the field.” Fox News TV highlights the growing number of police departments turning to new mobile apps, such as Mark43, to help them to serve their communities better. Mark43 co-founder Matt Polega shares: “Police can leverage mobile technology so that they can remain in the field and get information more quickly. By using their phones, officers know where they have to go, the route they have to take through the city, and they can even get a preview of the type of situation they will have to deal with.” Courtesy of Fox News TV, Mark43 and YouTube. Posted on Mar 16, 2023.)

First responders need responsive technology that meets them where they are: in the field, engaging with the community.

One of the best ways public safety agencies can meet their employees’ expectations is by prioritizing mobility when adopting new technology. Integrating all workflows into one mobile solution is key to removing the excess cost and burden of having officers jump from application to application.

A mobile solution also allows officers to self-initiate responses and capture relevant in-field data to strengthen their reporting.

Mark43’s OnScene, a New Mobile-First Responder App for iOS and Android, gives Public Safety Agencies Superior On-the-Go Technology to Enhance Responsiveness

I have long been struck by how much time law enforcement officers still spend in their cars, driving back and forth to the station.

In the above survey, 68% of public safety survey respondents said they needed to return to their offices or station houses for required paperwork instead of using mobile reporting technology.

No police officer I have ever talked to said they pursued a career in public safety because they loved filling out the paperwork.

One of the reasons my co-founders and I started Mark43 was to help cut back the time that officers spent on reporting so that they could get back to the reason they signed up – to further public safety.

Mobility is changing public safety for the better. Mobile technologies allow responders to easily record information from the field without returning to the office. Easy-to-use apps are vital extensions of mission-critical systems like computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records management systems (RMS).

(WSMV on Nashville’s 911 center choosing Mark43 Alternate CAD two years after the Christmas Day bombing. “Currently, when the CAD goes down at the center, the backup is a sheet of paper. Dispatchers must record each call by hand, at times logging 100 calls an hour. Now, if it goes down, the Mark43 system will kick in.

Mobility allows officers to be untethered from their vehicles yet maintain full, uninterrupted access to all the vital information they require.

To deploy this technology, however, there must be assurances that the flow of information to and from the field is uninterrupted.

Public safety agencies today face many challenges to the resilience of their information infrastructure: a rise in natural disasters, man-made critical incidents/domestic terror attacks, and even data usage increases that could impede an agency’s CAD or RMS.

Increasingly, public safety agencies are turning to the cloud for this core infrastructure.

Agencies are moving away from on-premises systems, with servers located in a facility inside the agency or municipal headquarters. They are moving instead toward resilient, redundant, cloud-native platforms.

Mark43 Alternate CAD is designed to serve as a backup to your community’s primary CAD, providing the modern technology needed to keep your agency operating and constantly connected.
Mark43 Alternate CAD is designed to serve as a backup to your community’s primary CAD, providing the modern technology needed to keep your agency operating and constantly connected.

Cloud-native platforms, operating without interruption, keep telecommu-nicators and first responders constantly connected to their communities to respond immediately to urgent calls for service, regardless of any natural disaster or other large-scale incidents that would strain legacy systems.

Mobile software running on cloud-native platforms provides first responders with real-time information and enables them to interact more effectively with the communities they serve.

It empowers first responders by allowing them to react and respond, no matter where their mission takes them. First responders should always have access to pertinent information that will keep them informed and safe, and mobile apps ensure that essential information is at their fingertips.

Modern policing demands that public safety uses modern tools and technology.

Public safety leaders looking to have a lasting impact on their communities should embrace the latest advances in mobile technology to continue to meet communities where those communities need them most.

We look forward to continuing to support agencies in their mission to protect citizens.”

“There were questions about other vendors, but it was very easy to explain to them why we chose Mark43,” said San Antonio Police Department Deputy Chief Karen Falks. “The fact that it was cloud-native, the system was device-agnostic, we can give them phones, tablets, whatever they want to use. So many of the questions were about how Mark43 was going to help the officers. We talked about how the day-to-day systems would integrate with Mark43. And we identified there were seven systems we would integrate in the first phase. It wasn’t a hard sell because they knew. And they were happy we found something our entire department was happy with.”

“AWS is constantly looking for ways to help government agencies increase efficiency and digitize operations. Having Mark43’s mission- critical public safety software in AWS Marketplace provides another avenue for customers to purchase cloud-based solutions that can help modernize public safety,” said Ryan Reynolds, Justice and Public Safety Leader at AWS.
