The RESPONSEnet™ mapping database solution was designed by lifelong first responders who know what works during the stress, confusion and uncertainty that surrounds real school incidents and emergencies – and how first responders and Crisis Management Team members can really use these tools in the field. Our solution has been chosen by a large number of districts as their Crisis Management Database solution under the 2007 and 2008 REMS Grant programs. Our Mapping Database team is currently working with districts in Michigan, Texas, Colorado, Arizona, Illinois, Virginia and California, representing over 3,500 buildings under the 2007 REMS Grant alone, as well as many other public and private organizations and first responder agencies.

In addition, the RESPONSEnet system also includes the REPORTER™ and NOTIFIER™ modules. The REPORTER module provides our clients the ability to track, report and verify “daily” incidents, training elements, and other emergency management events – all while automatically notifying the responsible parties and responders. The REPORTER module is a web-based incident reporting and notification module built specifically to empower clients to quickly document all on-site activities. Clients also are empowered to notify groups, responders, and internal personnel with the NOTIFIER module. This tool allows for customized alerts (emergency, weather, newsletter etc.) to be created and sent to all users in seconds. This concept is called "unified messaging," because one message may be sent to multiple types of devices.
