MARYLAND – Stunning new technology that has launched in over 250 cities across the globe has now made its way to Maryland’s law enforcement.

“At Mark43 we really understand the gravity of our mission, and our focus is to always improve the public safety outcomes for community members and first responders alike.” Matt Polega, Co-Founder of Mark 43, says this is the program of our time. First responders such as 911 operators, EMS, Firefighters, and Police officers can all use this program.

“The Mark43 is a technology platform is a solution for public safety agencies across the globe.” Matt tells us that officers can spend up to half their shift just by doing paperwork alone, stopping them from protecting our communities and homes.

“Most people probably wouldn’t be aware, but the technology that is supporting our first responders is pretty fraile, pretty fragile, and not at all built for the 21st century.” The Mark43 offers a cloud-native platform that covers record management, computerized dispatch, and analytics. The program will help officers by cutting down the time it takes them to write reports.

Matt also tells us how the program has also made it easier for 911 operators to work from home, as many find that more comfortable. He also told us that this technology will help the 911 operators reach officers in a quicker amount of time.

The company wanted to acknowledge that it is National Police Week, and this is their way of help those who help others.
