Operational Equipment And Evidence Management

The Hardcat law enforcement platform allows enforcement organisations to improve their operational efficiencies and provide complete transparency across the life cycle of assets, equipment, incidents, exhibits, evidence and seized property management.

 

Law enforcement needs to provide a high level of service and safety to the community and be more diligent than ever in the tracking and accountability of firearms, qualifications, and impairments. Hardcat’s law enforcement software uses Barcodes and/or RFID tags to automate all supply functions of a uniformed agency into one enterprise system. It begins by keeping track of equipment issued to officers, armoury supplies, vehicle assignments, stock room inventories, uniforms, and more.

 

Armoury Control

When speed and accuracy are paramount, mobile scanning makes the process of issuing and returning all operational equipment faster and more accurate. In addition to improved asset security, it allows officers to get on the job quicker with fewer manual inventory audits upon return.

 

Keep Equipment In The Right Hands, At The Right Time

Maintain accountability for a wide range of firearms and operational equipment so that you can be certain at all times who has what and where, with a complete audit trail of all movements and a history of the transfer of custody. Not only can your police department track firearms, tools, and equipment, but you can also ensure they are safe and maintained to meet your compliance requirements.

 

Evidence Management Software

Manage evidence and exhibits with unprecedented governance over the full lifecycle from capture through to disposal. With complete mobility and accessibility, your officers have immediate access to analysis and results and be efficient and accurate with instant logbook processing and reporting, wherever they are, with our mobile solutions.

 

Managing Seized Property

Follow the life of confiscated property from the time it is captured until it is collected or disposed of. Officers are able to locate stored property instantly. We offer total governance for the property control procedure, ensuring that the property is handled with an audit trail starting as soon as it is seized. When you move property, it is considered to be “in transit,” and the whole audit trail is recorded. Spreadsheets are prone to human mistakes; however, by using our mobility solutions to capture item details in the field, you can be confident that all the information is recorded promptly.
