Outdated Processes

Stay current with automatic updates

Save time and effort with cloud-based policy management software. Automatic alerts, side-by-side comparisons, and version control all work to help you keep track of changes and eliminate outdated policies everywhere they exist. No more tracking down and removing old versions manually.

Limited Accountability

Track who has signed what

Electronic signature tracking, audit trails, dashboards, and reports come together to make accountability within your agency a reality.

Meeting SLAs

Operate with confidence

Maintaining the proper policies and SOPs to meet your SLA expectations has never been easier. Disseminate mission-critical information with the touch of a button, ensure documentation is always up-to-date, and eliminate wasteful paper processes that take too much time and human effort.

Managing Tech

Simplify your management process

Tech solutions shouldn’t add more to your plate; they should make your life easier. Our customer success and implementation teams help install PowerPolicy without requiring additional staff or resources. Once implemented, customizable workflows, automated features, and simple tools make it easy to operate efficiently without asking more of your team.

Assessment Prep

Reduce prep time by 50%

With less manual effort, assessment prep won’t monopolize your emergency communications center's resources. Save time and effort with software that does the work for you.

Accreditation Readiness

Get accreditation-ready

Assess whether or not your agency is on track to meet the requirements of an accreditation onsite with task assignment, digital highlighting, progress tracking, and mock assessments.

Meeting SLAs

Ensure the best service

Achieving agency accreditation is a major accomplishment. Keeping that accreditation and ensuring your SOPs and SLAs are aligned year after year can be even harder. Automate the process instead, so you can stay up-to-date and focus on providing excellent service.

powerdms-app-screen-911-LC-SLA-01
Aligning Policies

Be confident in your compliance

Every time a standards manual changes, one or more of your policies could be affected. But how would you know what needs to be updated without going through the new manual page by page, line by line? Ensure your policies match your accrediting body’s standards with digital tools that save you time and effort.

Supporting Responders

Support emergency response

Supporting your responders on a call goes beyond dispatching the proper units and communicating the right information. It also means keeping the callers informed and prepared while they wait for units to arrive. Make your responders’ lives easier with automated communication to your callers that requires no additional staffing.

Manual Callbacks

Save time on follow-up

We recently had an influx of lateral applicants because they wanted to work somewhere that made their wellness a priority.

I love it when something just works! Engage’s candidate pre-screening has saved me hours finding qualified applicants.
Gareth Williams, Chief PST, County 9-1-1 Coordinator
Union County Police Regional Communications Center
A large part of winning the appeal (in a case to determine just cause for termination) was the user-friendly setup of PowerReady. Without the ease of use, our CTOs wouldn’t have been as comfortable doing the documentation and would’ve been less likely to utilize the system to its full advantage.

PowerEngage constantly reminds our 311 staff how much citizens appreciate the work they do.
