NEW YORK – November 13, 2026 – Mark43, the leading cloud-native public safety operations platform, today announced it has been named “Law Enforcement Technology Platform of the Year” in the 2026 GovTech Breakthrough Awards, underscoring its leadership in delivering a modern, secure platform that puts critical information in the hands of first responders when it matters most.
Mark43’s cloud-native platform is anchored by a connected Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS) built on a shared data platform, bringing together dispatch, patrol, and investigations in one connected environment. Integrated mobile tools, analytics and intelligence capabilities give personnel access to critical information across workflows, while its open API seamlessly connects third-party technologies, data sources, and hardware agencies rely on. Together, these capabilities help agencies respond faster, work smarter, and better serve their communities.
The recent acquisition of ForceMetrics further expands the platform’s intelligence capabiities. Officers and other agency staff can search across systems for information about people, locations, and incidents, giving responders more context as they assess situations and work to keep communities safe.
“Public safety agencies deserve modern, dependable technology that evolves with their needs, and we take that responsibility seriously,” said Bob Hughes, CEO of Mark43. “This recognition is a testament to the dedication and innovation of our Product and Engineering teams who deliver on our vision every day and continue to push our platform and the industry forward.”
The 2026 GovTech Breakthrough Awards recognize companies and technologies driving innovation across the global government technology industry. The inaugural program received hundreds of nominations from more than 15 countries, honoring solutions transforming how public agencies operate and serve their communities.
